On my way

I can't officially cross anything off my list yet, but I figure my blog is going to get boring if I only have 30 posts...each post for something I have completed.  So, I will start keeping track of my progress of a few of the ones I am working on.  

Tonight I finished a book from the bookshelf.  I guess I should start with a picture of everything that needs to be read.  

The top shelf is all my books.  A few books on the right and left of the shelf are there as reference.  But, the rest need to be read.  I have already started a new one.  Owning a kindle makes this a very difficult task, but I will complete it.

In other news I have started to try different dinners.  I now make a mean mustard panko chicken and pork.  Tomorrow night will be trying chicken with salsa in the crock pot.  I am slowly learning.

Dan went food shopping last night and came home with all the mixings for homemade chocolate chip cookies.  I know this was a very simple accomplishment, but I've never made anything that didn't come from a box.  I only had one complication with the oven, but they came out pretty yummy.  Dan has already eaten about half of them!

 

 

A week before I turned 27 I started to stress out about being so close to 30.  Age has always been just a number, but all of a sudden it stressed me out that I was so close to 30 and felt very unaccomplished.  Someone told me about creating a 30 before 30 list and the idea was born.  Two weeks later here I am starting a 30 to 30 blog to keep track of my progress.  So here goes...
