to start making plans for 2011!
Next year, I want the following things to happen:
1) I want to pay off our credit card (fingers crossed that no ONE keeps that from happening…!) and start saving to replace the Murano in a few years. Here, Mini Mini Mini!
2) I want to go home to Indiana sometime in the summer and visit Muncie again and maybe even go to Cedar Point in Ohio.
3) I want to spend Thanksgiving ’11 in Las Vegas. Actually, I wanted to spend Thanksgiving ’10 there, but Gene has to work. For fuck’s sake, people always say, “You don’t have kids, you could go to Paris on a whim! You could have cocktails on Saturday mornings!” Ehh on Paris (okay, people don’t say that to me, but I’ve read it), hooray on cocktails (although it was at least 12 noon before I started my first mojito last weekend). I can’t think of any other American city that couldn’t give less of a crap about holidays, so Vegas it is.
4) I want to go under the knife in ’11. It’s no big deal, I just have to wait to be FMLA eligible at the new job so I can get paid. Yes, I know I’m telling everyone this on the blog and not on the phone/in person. And no, I’m not having my chest done. Geeeeez.
5) I want to read even more than I do now, including finishing the rest of the million books I have received on Bookmooch.com as well as Half Price Books. (This weekend is the Cheesecake City Public Library’s used book sale and I am very very very tempted to go. Because I need more books!)
6) I want to get my Certified Payroll Professional certification in Fall 2011. I don’t know what this will mean for my job other than it will make me extra desirable and hopefully promotable. Plus, the employer’s paying. Yay!
So, those are my plans.
