Bucket List 2011

Yup, I've decided I'm going to create a bucket list. I'm not sure if that's even accurate considering I don't plan on "kickin' the bucket" but I don't like saying resolutions because in the past, those haven't worked out as well as I would have liked. Hello, have you seen me in a size 14 this year? Yeah, that was last years resolution. LOL But more importantly I'd like to focus on what I am doing instead of knocking myself for what I don't do.

Last Sunday night I was up a little late making goodies to send off to Elders Faaumu and Tuihalangingie. It was then that I decided I should make it a more regular thing to give goodies to good people. It doesn't have to be just the elders! Everyone should get a care package every once in a while. Those of you who are lucky enough to be in my contacts (LOL @ lucky!) know that several times a month you get a "giveaway" text. This month I have been the buziest baking beezy (LOL) so there are more than just the occasional giveaways. I bake TONS of things TOO OFTEN and no one in my house needs, wants or should finish it all! So I simply give it away. Sometimes it's to the first person who replies. Other times it's to the one who can answer a question or list whatever random thing I've asked. Whatever the case, it's the act of giving that I enjoy. So regular GIVING is for sure going to be on next years list. (Side note-If you're not on my contacts, send me your number!)

In March of this year I decided I was going to "Pay it Forward" to people randomly each month. It didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped but I managed to get a few things out. I'm going to continue that in 2011 and see if I can do a better job at meeting my deadlines. I'm not going to reveal all of my plans just yet. Instead I'll save it and go for a dramatic effect in the end. ;-)

I'll think more about what to put on next years bucket list and post it before this month is up. I'm open for suggestions too! I SOOO need some self improvement! I'm excited to dive in and shake things up. Once I think more about a list I'll post it. Until then - HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
