40 in 4 Update

I kind of love this 40 in 4 but really not sure if I'll get it all done. I'm already a year in and not making much progress. I think I had some lofty wishes and some I'm not super interested in anymore so maybe there is still hope.

So since the last time I posted, I have two new items to check off, bringing me to a grand total of  6. Ha! I'll need to step it up if I want to get this all done in 3 more years!

2. Have my palm read.
For my 32nd birthday, we went out to lunch and then visited the Regina Russell Tea Room in Quincy. I've always been a bit skeptical but wanted to do it anyways and I'm so glad I did.  The guy knew some awesome things and made some comments that just clicked.  And not overly generic ones that I found meaning in, but real honest, directed comments... it was crazy and I really want to go back!

16. Begin working on an administrator's license or a PhD.
I was officially accepted into a program where I will get my Principal's license. We were supposed to start last week but with the weather it's been bumped but it's been started so it still counts! Based on the program I will be done with classes in October and will be able to receive my license after I do my practicum hours. 

So two more checked off-- why did I pick so many big things to put on my list? Oh well, I'll keep trucking along...

xo, Heather
