Probably my favourite thrift store find since the pink telephone lamp. A three album collection of the best swing music from 1940-41.

Envelope flap of “random collection #1” (a special feature in my journal)… vintage scratch-n-sniff stickers.  I have pickle, pancakes, cola, bubblegum, popcorn, ice cream, gingerbread house, and cinnamon. Yep.

Update.

Six months to go on my list of goals, and I’m happy to report that I have started 3 of the 8.  I have taken five driving lessons (goal #2) and have my road test scheduled for the beginning of April!  Not quite sure if I’m ready yet , but I’ll be practicing as much as possible until then!  Also, I’ve started school (goal #1)!  It’s going great, and I’m balancing my schedule to make it work.  And finally, I’ve started doing something that scares me (goal #6)… But more on that some other time.  Hope you’re doing well, champ.

Last year, I made a list of 29 things I wanted to accomplish by my 29th birthday.  I completed some of those goals, but most a bunch several went undone.  This year, I’ve decided to make a much shorter list- but of my most important goals.  Things that will further my career, make me happy, feel like a better person, and things that will make my life easier. From time to time, I’ll give you updates on how it’s all going.   Fun Fact: As of tomorrow, it’s exactly 8 months until my birthday.  LET’S GO!
