I have to admit, this list makes me really excited for this year. What a fabulous way to celebrate growing older. Maybe this is what they mean by growing old gracefully!
I'm also going to create a page for this list and update it monthly so please check back and see how I'm doing.
That is a GREAT list! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I am really freaking excited for this year!
DeleteI love your list! LOVE! It is empowering, inspiring, and uplifting. So positive! You make me so happy! And you make me want to write a list of my own, too! Happy birthday, Dacia!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jaime! I am so excited for this year! And I totally think you should do a list too! That would be awesome!
DeleteI love that you Categorized your goals! What a great idea! I hope that we can meet in this year :) and if we do I can teach you how to knit. What is a Nia class?
ReplyDeleteThanks! Some days I am inspired, what can I say. Lol!
DeleteOh no, you cannot teach me to knit. The two times someone has tried to show me my father had a heart attack. I'm not even joking. It may be the weirdest coincidence ever but I vowed to never attempt to learn to knit again.
Nia is a group class. Kind of like dance meets martial arts meets yoga. I am actually a certified white belt and could teach (if I ever got my butt around to learning a routine and finding a studio to work at) but I know there is no Nia classes in Pensacola and I want to take at least one here in SA before I leave. It's awesome. If you go onto Nianow.com you can search to see if there are classes around you.
It's like Zumba but spiritual. Lol!
Happy Birthday toooo youuuuu! Your list is awesome, inspiring and is setting you up for a great year. I can help you out with #10 & #29 once you get to Pensacola. You should totally look into teaching a Nia class here, it sounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteYay! I can't wait!
DeleteI would love to teach NIa but it is just something I couldn't do if I was wokring full time- it takes a very long time to learn the routines- but if I don't have a job lined up when I get there that is definitely something I would look into!
Happy (belated) Birthday Dacia! Your goals are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you Amber! :)
