40 Before 40

Spring has sprung, or is trying to... The nice weather has got my mind churning and burning with to do lists. Spring cleaning is on the top of the list for me, once we finally get a weekend at home. But I've also started making a list of things I'd like to accomplish over the next few years. I could go into great detail on each and every item as they are all super exciting for me (that's why they're on my list!) but I will not bore you with that. Basically I've come up with four different categories with ten items in each - I've got ten years before I turn 40 so that's one item from each category per year. Totally do-able, right? Anyway, here is my 40 before 40 list:
