40 New Things

I have a new project. Thankfully, I'll have nearly a year to complete this thing and I've already begun!

We had a roping gig a couple years ago and this lady wanted to spin a rope. No big deal, that happens all the time. She said during her 50th year she wanted to keep a list of 50 things she'd never done before. Spinning a rope was gonna be on her list.

I thought that was a great idea and thought I might keep that in mind for my 40th year. I kinda forgot about it since I was completely trying to keep any thoughts of turning 40 out of my head. Now that the birthday is come and gone that lady and what she said popped into my head. I can't remember when, but probably sometime when I was watch Baby Einstein for the 100th time this weekend when I was helping MaMaw with Rowdy and Jessie Jane.

So far here's the list:

1. Hiked up a mountain. ( personally, I think this should count for 2)
2. Painted my new house. (my friends did all of the work, but I helped)
3. Bought house insurance. (they can't all be fun)


So, I have 37 things to go, but I have 10 more months to make it happen!! I'm gonna try to improve on #3. If they're all like that it's gonna be a long year!!!!!!!!!!!
