I got 33 years and still going...

So, I get this way every year around my birthday.  But I do have to say the past few birthdays have been pretty great. 

Long gone are the days of extravagant celebrations.  What used to be a month long of celebration, I may be cut it down to just about 1 weekend.  Or maybe two.  Just depends on who wants to take me out to lunch or dinner.  LOL.

The past few years have been pretty good to me.  I can't complain.  It's been an opportunity for me to reconnect with myself, and focus on me.  I've done things that I've always wanted to do and can cross those off on my bucket list.

Some of my achievements this year:

1) Ran my 1st Full Marathon
2) Competed in my 1st Disney Challenge race (Dumbo Double Dare Challenge)
3) Went to Florida for the 1st time
4) Went on vacation/resort all by myself
5) Utilized as much as I can public transportation to save gas and money
6) Been to a bar by myself
7) Rode a mechnical bull
8) Learned how to really line dance and two-step
9) Went to a sporting event (Rugby Seven's)
10) Started to play an organized sport (Rugby)
11) Started ushering at church

As you can see, there are a lot of things on this list that were by myself.  This isn't a bad thing.  It's actually been quite liberating.  I can choose to do things on the fly, and make changes as needed.  There are still many things I want to experience.

Let's hope I can find someone that is just as adventurous and sponatneous as I am.

Cheers to the past 33 years of life, and the upcoming adventures to follow!
