A bit random, I know. We’ve been visiting the cat shelter lately, and he was just so adorable! And there! I made him relevant by adding it to my list. :)
Along with my 30 before 30, I wanted to take the time to refocus and update my bucket list… and I realize that this will be an ever-changing list, but it’s good to set them all the while being flexible. I’m feeling pretty good about this year. As long as I focus a one or two at a time, it can be done!
Oh. And if anyone would like to join me for any of these, pleeeeease let me know! For one, I’d be more than happy to take on many, MANY more workout partners.
