so i know you are all on the edge of your seat . . . i suppose since it’s nearly march, i should finally post the 27 things i plan to do now that i am 27.  yay!

1. FINISH a book each month
2. get in shape.  finally.  core fusion baby.
3. have fun in the car like i used to. (drive with my windows down, loud music, dancing, etc.)
4. launch one of my new business ideas.
5. cook a little more adventurously.
6. smile more.
7. start taking hip hop classes again.
8. travel somewhere to visit a friend — for no reason other than visiting them in the place they call home!
9. light more candles at home, just for fun.
10. create photo books for life before marriage.
11. get my website up and running (www.micamaydesign.com) and begin a blog.
12. design and order our wedding alblum in time for our 3rd year anniversary.
13. golf with hubby at least once a month (pending good weather of course).
14. be a little more daring in regards to fashion — care a little less about people’s perception of me and my wardrobe.
15. make our bed everyday — including all the fancy pillows.  i’ve gotten lazy about this.
16. feel confident about doing my makeup — more on some days, less on others, maybe even none one of these days . . . (that’s for you, Love)
17. clean out my inbox.  i never delete e-mails, so i’m now at the daunting task of deleting 20,000.  yay.
18. learn more about paper.  there is a paper/design/print production workshop i’m totally psyched about (which i realize qualifies me as an Official Nerd), but i can’t wait.
19. move my starbucks “drip coffee” from a grande to a tall in a grande cup.  if i do this, i’ll save $37.44 for the year (if i ordered coffee 3x a week, which i don’t even do that.)  hey.  every little bit counts.
20. Dallas Design on a Dime.  it’s an idea from HGTV that i want to do with a few friends here sometime in the spring/summer . . . more details on this to come later.
21. update picture frames around our house with current photos at least 3 times a year.  which seems a lot since we don’t have any cute kiddos yet to brag on!  it’s just us. ha.
22. love my husband with acts of service more often.
23. keep in touch more with friends i love dearly that are long distance.  you know who you are!
24. drink a little red wine paired with a bit of dark chocolate to end my evenings as many days out of the year as i can.  shouldn’t everyone do this! HELLO antioxidants!
25. design/produce/send our christmas card early this year.  maybe i should start before thanksgiving.  hmmm.
26. see more independent films/movies.
27. buy little sussies, as steph says, which are small gifts for friends.  for no reason. i used to do this a lot, and i miss that about myself.  ha.
