Year 32

I'm a goal setting, list making kinda girl. I love nothing more than creating lists; the whole process of it: thinking of ideas, the satisfaction of completing task, the accountability of "the list."

I decided in light of my recent 32nd (*Gasp* 32?!?!) birthday, I'd make a list of 32 things I'd like to complete this year. 32 things that will hopefully better me as a person, wife, mother, Child of God, citizen. 

I'm intentionally leaving a few open so I can add ideas as the year progresses depending on my passions, spirit-callings, or whatever crazy idea pops in my head. 

  1. Lose {at least} 32 pounds
  2. Sell this house
