It's my birthday! I'm 30! holy crap!

I just got word that a major project is now behind schedule and won't hit it's install date by enough of a margin that my built-in estimate padding is useless as well, and I'll have to inform senior management that we're changing the install date.

But hey, it's my birthday!
And it's a gorgeous day with the temperature in the 80's! That counts for something... right?

Trying not to let work ruin my good mood.

I want to compile a list of things to accomplish in this decade, anyone have suggestions for me?
What should I do before the tens digit rolls over again?
Serious, silly, all will be accepted and considered.

Lovin' life. :-)

Happy birthday! (I am so terrible at birthdays, so i am grateful for people who remind me of them in a very public and obvious way.)

Edit your previous to-do-before-you-die list. Give yourself permission to give up on the things you no longer actually want, but but have been meaning to do for so long that you're totally in a rut about 'em. Then do it -- give up, make apologies, give shit away, do whatever you need to do to let go of that angst. If there are obvious omissions - things you'd like to do, but think you can't because there are so many other things to do first, now's the time to add them.

Make a pact with yourself to kiss your wife and tell her you love her (and really mean it) every single day for the next ten years.

If I had a list I'd edit it.
Still working on making one. ;-)

I don't believe you. What about your woodworking list? Your home repair projects? Your job goals? Other hobbies (brewing, photography, music)? Are any aspects of these not serving you as well as they could be? Or have they in some way become more important than you are currently admitting to yourself?
