four wheelin and a thirty by thirty update

One | If you are viewing my blog design and see that my side bar is under the posts- I'm sorry and I'm trying to fix it.

Two | I completed another thing on my thirty by thirty list this week!!!

I have been trying to plan on different activities and vacations to take this year, since well, I turn the big 3-0 in about 106 days... eek! So last week, the hubby borrowed the brother-in-law's 90 cc Arctic Cat four wheeler for us to try it out (the main reason being that my parents are throwing around the idea of getting my almost 5 year old a four wheeler) and after fixing it, we decided to take it for a spin. Lil man can't ride by himself, so I of course took him for lots of rides and completed number 28 on my list!!! And I've been completing it everyday since Monday :)

Three | Unfortunately, I really don't think that I will be completing my whole list by the time I'm 30... the reason being mostly due to time. Sure, I will be able to go to a Bears and Blackhawks game (#11) by my birthday; 12, 13 & 22, mostly because in September we are planning a trip to Gatlinburg, TN and then Columbus, OH; I'm planning on getting another tattoo at the beginning of September (#15); a trip to DC will be in Nov (I'm hoping) (#17); and I'm going to struggle to break my addiction to cigarettes (#30). But I don't see myself swimming in all oceans, finishing a novel, taking lil man on a boat ride, finding a well paying and loving job, going to Niagara or Canada, buying a house, or buying a DSLR by December 3 of this year. Now apple picking in Michigan, yeah, I can at least try to do that :)
