30 Things Before 30!

Hey Everyone,

So turns out I didn't do that bad for things I wanted to achieve in 2014, which is good for me HA! I do not do New Years resolutions but thinking of something different for this year! So here it goes.......

A lot of my friends have been looking at all the things they wanted to do before they were 30 and doing 30 things before they are 30, well I thought 1 year isn't long enough! In 4 years time I will be 30 and I thought instead of a new year resolution  why not focus on my things and try to feel inspired by it! Since the wedding I have been a bit unsure and suffering from a lack of inspiration on what to talk about, so lets give this a go. Here is my list:-

1. Finish Decorating the House
2. Buy a New Car
3. Bake more and share the recipes
4. Develop my Career (or decide what I want to do!)
5. Make more items with my Sewing Machine
6. Be more Creative
7. Produce a Human Being
8. Challenge myself to something I wouldn't normally do
9. Visit America Again
10. Visit a Zoo in a different Country
11. Visit the International Holocaust Museum
12. Visit Auschwitz  
13. Visit Amsterdam
14. Visit Paris Again
15. Visit a place I wouldn't think of going to
16. Visit a Unique Museum
17. Go back to Hampton Court Palace
18. Ride a Horse
19. See Phantom of the Opera
20. See Le Miserable
21. Watch all the Hunger Games Films in 1 sitting
22. Have a Party
23. Have a Family Party
24. Do something amazing for my Husbands 30th Birthday
25. Try a Curry
26. Read at least 20 new books (book series only count as 
27. Go to a Comedy Club
28. See a Music Concert in a Major Venue
29. Experience something unique
30. Enjoy a Pamper Day

So I have 4 years to crack on with this....

New Year, what did I achieve in 2014

Well it's here 2015!

So I thought before I talk about what my plans are for the new year I would discuss what I planned for last year and if I achieved any goals, as I am crap at achieving goals!


1. Decorate my Dining Room. I know this might sound simple but it also involves restoring antique furniture, making curtains etc. I'm currently on the search for Wallpaper, which we can't decide on yet!

Goal Achieved here! We have been in a working dining room for months, it is now full of stuff from upstairs!

2. Plan my Bridal Shower which is at the end of March, I currently have no ideas of what it entails and what people are expecting, which means perfect blog material.

Achieved too. Had a perfect time and I did indeed blog!



3. Actually plan the rest of the wedding, so much to do, so little motivation right now to do it! I'm sure things are not going to get any easier and I need to crack the whip so to speak! 

I am now a married lady!

4. Make my hen party outfit, which is also at the end of March.

Achieved I looked very fetching and awful at the same time!



5. Think and make some Christmas crafts for my first Christmas in my house and hopefully with a Dining Room that is functional!

I did not do any crafts, which makes me sad :-( I made wedding albums on line for gifts!

6. I do not really want to talk about weight but I kinda need to loose half a stone for my wedding dress, damm these chocolate biscuits taste so good, and people brought loads at Christmas.

I have lost 1/2 stone since the wedding, which is good as Honeymoon is in 5 weeks to America!

7. Review my blog on what I have learnt about getting married.

I learnt nothing, other than how to not herd cats!

8. Try to play less of The Sims 3, (I know I'll either have people booing or cheering about this) but I maybe should stop playing this and actually plan a bit of the wedding or do something constructive in my house.

Haven't played on it for 4 months and have no intention of getting into the latest one as it looks awful!

9. Try to get out a bit more, last year was spent making invites, saving money, looking at house, this year I'd actually like to spend time with my friends, do things with Mike that do not involve housework, but actually go see things/people.

Slowly getting a social life back, but trying save money and have a life don't go hand in hand.

10. And I guess Finally actually GET MARRIED!

DONE!

Looking back didn't do too bad I guess.

New Year, New Plans

Well it's here 2014!

As I've previous mentioned it is a big year for me, we are 9 months away from the wedding. So I will of course be chatting some more about that and hopefully a review about the people I used.

So I decided I would share with you my plan for this year and we'll see how well I actually do!

1. Decorate my Dining Room. I know this might sound simple but it also involves restoring antique furniture, making curtains etc. I'm currently on the search for Wallpaper, which we can't decide on yet!

2. Plan my Bridal Shower which is at the end of March, I currently have no ideas of what it entails and what people are expecting, which means perfect blog material.

I hope you have some reasonable plans for the new year, with hopes and dreams!
