Thirty Before Thirty: Start of Something Good

“Oh, this is the start of something good. Don’t you agree?”
-Gavin DeGraw

WOW!…is what comes to mind when I think about this past week. I have received such an amazing response to my first blog post. And for that my friends, I say THANK YOU!

I was so stressed about my first post….  “Will people like what I have to say?” “Will anyone want to read what I have to say?” (Calling all insecurities!) You name it, I worried about it. I have received a lot of positive feedback and excitement from friends and family (150% appreciated!) which helped to calm my nerves. However, a few days after the first post I totally panicked… WHAT DID I GET MYSELF INTO?! How in the world am I going to have time to complete this list? There are only 32 Thursdays (the plan is for my posts to always be on Thursdays… Thirty Before Thirty Thursdays) until my birthday, yikes!

Stop … Breathe… Think happy thoughts.

I realized that all the things happening around #30before30 are amazing. In just one week my life is already changing. Isn’t that what I wanted? They say be careful what you ask for because you just might get it…”they”, whoever they are, are right.

I know you are wondering what amazing things are happening. Don’t worry, I will tell you … but you will have to keep reading to find out. For now let’s just say that over the next few days I will be scratching THREE items off my list! And I’ve already done one! Shout out to my new friends over at Bread Winners Café – they were AMAZING! (Read all about it on Thursday)

Now the fun stuff! Many of you have expressed an interest in joining me on my adventures. LOVE THAT! Below are some ways that you can join me and help me accomplish some items on my list.
