Goodbye 27, Hello 28

by Corinne on June 20, 2010

Birthday Flowers

*Update: I woke up this morning to birthday roses and bagels. Best husband ever.

Tomorrow I say goodbye to my 27th year. I’m making a list of all the things I want to leave behind from the past twelve months and making another list of what I’m bringing with me for my 28th year. I’ll rip up the list of stuff I want to let go and I’ll share the things I want to keep here (I learned this handy trick from Kris).

In no particular order, here’s the good stuff I’m packing for my 28th year of life:

1. Nurturing my house and my marriage, two things that bring me more joy that I could have ever imagined.

2. Working with my literary agent, Rebecca, to make my novel better each day. I’m so excited about the journey we’re on with this book. The future is bright:)

3. Creating innovative and inspiring projects with my super bosses, Kris and Brian.

4. Valuing my health and happiness by exercising and eating delicious and nourishing foods (most of the time).

5. Putting fun first once in a while and not taking myself too seriously.

6. Tending to my relationships with inspiring and positive people, while meeting new friends and colleagues along the way.

7. Staying open to change and limitless possibilities.

Thank you to everyone who has commented on my blog this year and to anyone who takes the time to stop by and read about my journey. I can’t wait to see what my 28th year brings!

xo,
Corinne

Hi Corinne,
I just wanted to share with you my own Birthday story. I just celebrated by 25th yesterday and I have been spending the last 6 months physically and mentally preparing myself to wear my first ever bikini. …and I finally did it!
