It is coming. Not this year (or next) but I think I should start preparing.

How so? A list, obviously! My 36 before 36 was a lot of fun (and successful) so I am working on forty before forty and am looking for ideas! Please offer some good ones!

For now, here’s a peak of what I have come up with so far:

1. Take piano lessons (I quit after one year – both of my sisters are beautiful players and I’ve come to regret dropping out).
2. See Hawaii – it has been my dream to take David to Hawaii for his 10th birthday since the day he was born. I will be less than 2 months away from my 40th when he turns 10 so the timing will be tight but I am sure Mike can make this happen.
3. Make some pottery – take a class.
4. Visit all of the National Parks in Atlantic Canada. There are 10, I’ve seen 5 (can you go to Sable Island?)
5. Get a tattoo. Hah! Where the heck did that come from?
6. Make a move. Not sure if it will be career or school or a move to the country but I like the idea.
7. Sail away – even if it’s just around the Armdale.
8. WALLPAPER my itty bitty bathroom.
9. Bangs. Try them out.
10. Rent a cottage with some lady-friends for +2 nights and drink way too much wine.

I have more… some less selfish (volunteer), some way more selfish (run faster) which I will share soon.

In the meantime, Piano. Push. Play. for your enjoyment.
