My very good friend Kesha (aka Uncommon Chick) wrote a recent blog post called ‘My 40 Things Before Age 40 List’ which is comprised of a bucket list of 40 things she would like to accomplish before she turns the big 4-0. This inspired me to also create a list since, in 4 years, I will be hitting that huge milestone. Some folk say that 40 is the new 30 (because 30 is the new 20), so I am looking forward to embracing it rather than hide from it. I think when you reach 40, you organically begin to feel that you have a new lease on life.
So without adieu, here is my #40by40 List:
1. Travel to London and Tokyo
2. See my son graduate from college
3. Bring sexy back in a size 6/8
4. Finish my 2nd novel and have it printed by a major publishing house
5. Take my grandmother on a trip somewhere
6. Move to a warmer climate
7. Get enough guts to shave my head
8. Take my daughter to New York City
9. Watch someone close to me rise to the TOP!
10. Finally be completely happy with who I am
11. Have an over-the-top destination birthday party
12. Visit Boston and Philly
13. Buy a BMW

17. Create a fabulous home office
18. Go handgliding
19. Have another baby
20. Meet Oprah

22. Have a professional and stunning model shoot in L.A.
23. Learn the importance of being earnest
24. Repair damaged familial relationships (one in particular)

33. Teach everyone in my circle how to Dougie
34. Get a tummy tuck and breast lift
35. Be completely out of debt

My #sistertribe member Andrea also wrote out her 40 by 40 List HERE. It’s amazing what us girls want to do before we hit that critical milestone 🙂
So the ball is in YOUR court now. What is on your #40by40 list? I’m interested in knowing what you would include on your lists!
