A Not Quite Autumn Birthday Bucket List

I have a birthday in September and some fun plans for celebrating which I'll blog about soon. In the meantime, I've been wanting to make a fall bucket list and my birthday seems like a good time to do that.

Do you find yourself becoming more introspective when your birthday rolls around? Lately I've been frustrated with all the 'saved' tabs on my Instagram and Facebook accounts, things I've marked with the intention of getting back to do or buy or make and then I just never seem to get back to do or buy or make. 

Let's make a list and get to doing-buying-making. 

Sixty-four days from my birthday is November 21st, so that's the made up meaningless deadline I've decided on. I work best with a deadline, and I'll let you figure out for yourselves how I landed on that number. I'm not turning 21 if that helps lol.

You should also know I can completely overthink this sort of thing. While my list isn't strictly fall it leans heavily in that direction...an eclectic mix of things I want to do, things I need to do, and things it would be nice to do.  

Do you have a fall bucket list? A birthday wish list? A to-do list that lacks motivation? If so, feel free to steal my made up meaningless deadline and do what you need or want to do in this most beautiful season of the year. In no particular order, here's mine-

Happy fall y'all!

  5. Excellent goals and I should certainly adopt a few of them! I am getting things done in the house, so feel pretty good about that. And I'm traveling to Ohio for my nephew's wedding next week. My son, Joey, urged me to splurge on myself so I bought a first-class ticket. Whoa!! A first for me and I've already chosen my MEAL!! I remember when everyone got a meal on a plane. Forgive my giddiness!! Celebrate all month, Joyce!! Anyone over 60 deserves a month-long celebration for sure!! xo

  7. No I don't have one except the list I have for cleaning/decluttering my house.
    This is a good variety on your list. Keep us posted as you complete them!

  8. The construction of the new feature outside must be nearing completion since you are thinking about a celebratory party. Sounds good!
