Hey Ladies!

I so enjoy the "Someday I will..." threads, I thought it might be fun to mention not just what we hope to do but what we have already done. I'll go first :D

I said I would...

1. Get in shape (obvious one!)
2. Drive cross country
3. Sell a script.

And I did!
 
Great idea! I love it! And congrats on your script!

I said I would...

1. Ride a century bike ride
2. Climb a fourteen thousand foot peak
3. Get my daughter interested in fitness
 
Fun thread:

I said I would and I did...

1. Do 10 pullups consecutively (did it 4 times and the other day when I was trying I could hardly do 5 - I swear....the wind has to be blowing the right way in order for me to get that many out)

2. Have 6 children (told my dh I wanted 6 when he proposed, but said it kind of as a joke - have you ever heard of speaking things into existence :eek: :eek: :eek: )

3. Ride an elephant. Funny.....For years....for some odd reason...I've said that one day I want to ride an elephant. I was watching some old home movies that my parents took and low and behold when I was about 2 years old there was footage of ME RIDING AN ELEPHANT. Must have been at a zoo somewhere. I never remembered doing it. Now....I'd like to ride one and REMEMBER IT....preferably in Africa as I'd love to do some mission work in that country one day.

I said I would and I did:

1. Make it through grad school
2. be not as hard on myself
3. plan my wedding (almost done!)



that is a great idea! it makes you think about your goals and realize what you can accomplish. I think this year, I'm going to write my goals down and have it by my computer, so I see them often. :) -Tina
 
I said I would....

1. become a personal trainer (I did this year)
2. do a triathlon (I did last year)
3. lose weight and stay slim (years ago, but trying to lose weight seems to be never-ending:eek: :) )
 
--graduate from nursing school (I was the 2nd oldest in my class)
--quit smoking. 10 years smoke free now!

Wow! These posts are very impressive. Let's see...

1. Quit smoking (9 years this weekend).
2. Find Mr. Right and NOT compromise.
3. Ask for a raise and promotion (hardest thing I've EVER done. Should find out the results this week).

And I did!!

Great idea for a post! I actually feel better about myself now.
