Today’s my Birthday! 32 Things I Want To Do This Year

Today’s my Birthday! I’m now 32 years old. I’ve always been one of those people who sets goals. I did it when I was in school. I did it when I was a competitive swimmer. I do it for work. And… well, I love to do it every year on my birthday.

So… for my 32nd year… here are 32 things I would like to do this year…

1. Establish a date night once a month with my husband. Alone.

2. Find a really good babysitter who can handle 4 boys (see #1).

3. Commit to working out 3-4 times a week. (I shouldn’t have any excuses with a treadmill in my basement.)

4. Bring the boys (all of them) to Disney.

5. Write an amazing book with Colleen Padilla.

6. Learn how to make my Nana’s spaghetti sauce. She passed away 2 years ago, my mom and dad know the “secret”… I need to learn.

7. Have lunch with my brother Keith! We’ve been trying to do this for months.

8. Potty train Henry. 🙂

9. Hope and pray for another Housewives franchise to emerge on Bravo… maybe Boston? Washington DC? Providence?

10. Treat my mother and father to something spectacular!

11. Save up for Louis Vuitton’s – Neverfull GM

12. Don’t let William see my tears when he starts Kindergarten. My little big man is starting “real” school this year!

13. Paint my bathroom! It’s time… it’s only been 4 years.

14. Throw an incredible Getting Gorgeous Event on August 6th with Vera Sweeney.

15. Expand our Getting Gorgeous parties!

16. Buy Henry a baby book. Yikes!

17. Plan a yard sale. Plan a yard sale. Plan a yard sale.

18. Watch my husband finish his 1st 1/2 Ironman (along with my mom, sister, brother, sister-in-law and boyfriend-in-law!)

19. Visit a medium.

20. Find some gorgeous new items for my wardrobe! I want to bring more color into my clothing this year.

21. Find some time to read more books. I’ve read 2 books in the last 2 weeks and it’s been wonderful! I forgot about relaxing it can be.

22. Thursday walks with Alli and Paige.

23. See Sex and the City 2 (over and over and over). I’ve been waiting a year.

24. See William join his first swim team. Oh my God… full circle moment.

25. Hang out with Rosie more! Love her! And do what I can do spread the word of Style Week Providence.

26. Keep working. Keep working. Keep working. I love love love what I do!

27. Try to get to bed once a week before 11PM.

28. Organize my office and closet.

29. Spend more time with my boys – with the TV, phone and laptop turned off.

30. Enjoy my new MacBook!

31. Stay focused on my hopes, dreams and goals for my personal and professional life. And DREAM BIG!

32. Start thinking about baby #5…

    Hope your birthday was grand! Congrats on the new MacBook, among all your other accomplishments. I love mine too. It’s amazing, and I just attended my first One to One class. You should def. add that to your list – so helpful to learn stuff your machine can do.
