40 things to do before I turn 40

I have found over the years that I work better when I have goals to work toward.  Specific, measurable goals. I will turn the big 4-0 January 26, 2013. So I have 15 months to get those things done that linger in the back of my mind.  Forty is a big year for me as my son will graduate from high school and my husband and I are going to Hawaii that summer for vacation.  I want to look and feel my best for both occasions. I also want to push myself to live my life outside of the everyday drill. My list isn't complete yet.  Forty is a big number!  If you have any suggestions, I am open to hearing them.  I may or may not do them but I am open to hearing them. Here is my list in no particular order of importance:

1. Run a FULL marathon

2. Lose 40 pounds

3. Organize all the papers in my house

4. Complete and publish Save the Butter Tubs

5. Complete and publish Lose on Purpose

6. Ride in a Hot Air Balloon

7. Get a better memory!
