Happy BirthYAY: 45 Things I Want To Do During My 45th Year


I'm officially 45 years young, and I got a lot that I want to accomplish. Read about what I want to do this year. Goals!

Well, today’s the day! I am officially 45 years old. Time flies when you are middle aged! While I cannot believe that I’ve reached this latest milestone, I am happy and feel blessed to make it to this age. I’ve got a little more gray hair than I used to, and I am beginning to experience aches and pains that I never had before, but other than that, I am still as spry and sassy as ever.

I’m also a year wiser, and ready to see what the next year brings. 2020 has been a difficult year for me, and I have found myself once again in resiliency mode, but I thankful for everything. During COVID-19, all of my needs have been taken care of. I’ve remained healthy and my kids are both fine, so all is well.

While I’ve done quite a lot in my 44 years, I wanted to share with you a list of 45 Things I Want to Do During My 45th Year. You can help me be accountable to these goals of mine. I like sharing them because I hope to look back in another year and see what I’ve been able to accomplish.

Some of the things on my list aren’t up to me (they are up to whether we are able to get out of COVD-19’s grasp), but I remain hopeful that while things will never be as they were, they will get better.

I'm officially 45 years young, and I got a lot that I want to accomplish. Read about what I want to do this year. Goals!

Here’s my list. Let me know your thoughts about them in the comments.

  1. I want to leave the country. At least once. When it’s safe to do so.
