I've decided that I sort of need a kick in the butt to live in the moment and enjoy the present. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in "when Kyle and I finally have a baby" mode that I sometimes miss what's going on in the right-here-and-now. My friend Keri had told me about this website where you can write out your goals and track your progress online.
Now, I already have a personal website with a "50 Things to Do Before I Die" list but it's not one that I update often or think about. This new website, entitled "43 things" is an interactive medium where you can blog about your progress, view other's goals and cheer on your friend's goals.
I like the idea of putting both long and short-term goals in writing - even silly ones like painting my kitchen (which I've been meaning to do since I moved into the house 1 year and a half ago). Plus, I think this will give me something new to focus my energy on, now that the nursery is starting to really shape up (I promise to post pics soon, I swear - maybe that needs to be one of my goals? Ha ha) and my tri is only a little only a month away (still keeping my fingers crossed that I can participate, won't know til then!)
Here's the link to my goals. I'll add it somewhere on the blog soon. I don't have 43 listed out yet, but enough to start working on them. Check back as I'll be updating them regularly!!

Just checked out your list. You inspired me to add one. :) I don't know how many or which movies you've seen, but it looks like we should have a movie-athon!
Good job on the goals. I'm also very wrapped up in the "when I become a mom" thing. Ug.
What a great idea! I really like the little things because those are the ones that get over looked most often. Hmmm, I might have to try that out!
Thanks!
