Almost Done

You know, it really just hit me this afternoon that this is my last day in my 30s.  I am not joking when I say that ever since we've hit the year 2020, I can't keep any kind of length of time accurately in my mind.  I get the aughts and the teens mixed up all the time -- I'll say 2016 when I'm really talking about 2006 and vice versa for the whole last 20 years.  It's really weird.  And it's especially weird to think of the fact that 20 years ago we were already in this new millennium.  It simultaneously feels like it was just yesterday while also seeming so long ago and far away.

But enough about all that talk of 20 year segments.  It's 40 years that I've been celebrating all week long!  {Side note -- my favorite gift I've given myself week is to not make dinner at all this week.}  And now on this -- my birthday eve -- I'm going to document the last 6 items that I've checked off my list.  Tomorrow I'll talk about the ones still in progress (and that I think I will keep progressing on until I finally finish them, regardless of my age).

Without further adieu, here are the final six...

24.) Complete a new 100 things list -- this was the very first item I checked off my list last year!  Feel free to check it out HERE.

25.) Explore our new surroundings -- we still have quite a ways to go as far as exploring goes, but it's been fun to venture out and find new places.




29.) Decide if I want to get a Master's -- this was pretty easy once I stopped to really think about it. Nope!

34.) Take a professional family photo -- another road trip accomplishment!  The last day of our Bear Lake family reunion, we all gathered at the Logan temple to take family pictures.  I really love having a current family photo to hang on the wall.



38.) Re-read To Kill a Mockingbird -- I finished this a couple of weeks ago in conjunction with Grace reading it for school.  It never disappoints.

(This is currently Grace's lock screen on her phone.  I don't know why I find it so funny that she has a picture of Scout dressed as the Ham in the movie, but I do.  Hahahahaha.)


39.) Get a new license plate/driver's license -- check!  Our totaled car last spring actually made this happen a lot sooner than it probably would have on its own.  Hahaha.  After getting our new car, we killed two birds with one stone and while I got the new plates for the van, Scott tagged along and got a license plate for his car.  And while I was there and at it, I went ahead and finally got a new driver's license as well.  This is quite possibly the quickest time frame after a move that I've ever gotten those two things done.  Not even joking.


And that's all folks!  This post was possibly even more lackluster than last night's.  Womp womp.  Hahaha.  I better go enjoy the rest of my last night in my 30s.  I hear its only downhill once you're OVER the hill.  Hahahahahaha.  J/K, j/k.  The best is yet to come.  Right???
