30 Days of Lists - Day 10 On My Wishlist

This kind of thing always takes me forever because when asked I can never think of anything I want. But I'm going to try.

Wish #1 is to marry my best friend this year. We've been through a lot lately and I just want the world to know how much I love him and that I can't wait to take his name and be his wife.

Now as for tangible things I don't want for much.  I'm working slowly toward a minimalist lifestyle.  But I will always love books and music. I would love for someone to share their music love with me.  What are you listening to right now? I love indie music so please introduce me to an unknown. Same goes for writers.

I would love for my guy and I to go together on a real vacation somewhere neither of us has ever been. No family, no friends,  no phones. Just us. I think we should aim to do this every year of our marriage.

A top of the line digital SLR camera.  I've wanted this for years and never been able to afford it. I miss photography. I miss who I was when I was taking pictures.

I wish I could remember to document everything.  Maybe I need a new brain.  Do they sell those at Michael's? That's where I spend all my spare money.

I may edit this list a lot.

I hate Sundays

Everyone else seems to think this is such an awesome day of the week but I hate it.  I'm forced to be the bad guy every time I want to wake my guy up so we don't waste an entire day sleeping.  To me Sundays are for brunch and hanging out together doing stuff we love not laying around the house all day like we're sick. We do that all week long.  This is our one day of the week where we are both completely off work. And every week I sit here and wait.

And wait and wait. 

Those who know me know that I detest waiting for anything.

So yeah we are probably going to fight today. A lot.

I really hate Sundays.

This is how it starts

I always get to the beginning of the year and think this will be the year I finally get out and get a life.  A week later I'm still doing nothing during the week and on weekends. Not this year. I am determined to make this the best year ever.

I picked up a Project Life planner set last weekend and have been working on it the last 8 days. I made it past the first week.  Yay progress!

So this blog was created to jumpstart my writing and possibly get me to post some of my planner pages to make it all seem worth it. Because it *is* worth it.

Also planning to finally officially elope this year.  The planner well be helping with that as well. Definitely don't want to forget anything on the most important day of my life.

So more about me.  I'm 37 (yes I think of Clerks as well every time I say it). I live in Texas and aside from the terrible heat in  the summer it's really not that bad. But I would love to move on to another state.  The dream is to be somewhere with seasons.

Beyond that I love the color pink,  coffee,  Mexican food and taking time every day to do something creative.

I'm also going to start 30 days of Lists in April.  I don't know much about it yet but intend to do my homework in the coming weeks. Should be a great way to spark more creativity and we could all use that.

That's my life right now (or lack thereof).  As the blog name says I intend to get a life this year.  Just watch me.
