half birthday July 13.

My half birthday is coming up- July 13, which will make me 35.5- tipping closer to the 40's than the 30's.  Lord, help me!
I'm feeling slightly reflective tonight so I thought I'd post some thoughts.
Now that I've reached mid-life, here are 20 things I vow:

1.   I'll remember my faith as the most important thing and spend time with like minded believers, nourishing and being nourished.
2.   I  will take the Word of God more into my heart with an open heart 
3.   I will finally start wearing SUNSCREEN and SUNGLASSES, praying fervently that I am not damaged beyond repair.  I will drink water and take a daily vitamin! :)


 
 

4.   I will read more challenging books and spend more time reading than aimlessly browsing the Internet.
5.   I will stay abreast of world news via BBC, NPR, newspapers.
6.   I will stop being sloppy, remembering that I feel better when I take time and put on nicer clothes, a little make-up, earrings...
7.   I will make new friends and keep in touch with my old friends.  Cards! Phone calls! Visits!
8.   I will support and pray for Victoire.  I will visit her before she is 18. 
9.   I will travel more.
10. I will spend more time worshiping at HOME.
11. I will try new things, new recipes, new songs. 
12. I will be daring.
13. I will go camping!
14. I will sky dive!
15. I will road trip!
16. I will be open to love.
17. I will save money every month, minimum of 100.00 a month.  It's something!
18. I will go barefoot more... walk and bicycle!
19. I will dance and kayak and canoe...
20. I will stay grounded in His love and grace,  living a life for others, reflective of His love.
