Spice up 2012 by doing at least one NEW and FULFILLING thing in April, May and June

June has been full of firsts for our garden. It is the first time I picked green beans and cooked them in June. We got zuchini, cucumbers, green peppers and our first tomato today. I have never gotten tomatoes or peppers this early and the only other ones I’ve seen locally this year were grown in a greenhouse.

Last Sunday we made a spur of the moment trip to Kansas City to see The Sea Life Aquarium%~= at Crown Center. I’ve been waiting for an attraction like this for years that could be done on a day trip. We took our granddaughter which made it even more special.

I gave blood today. No, it wasn’t my first time. However, the last 2 times I tried, my hemoglobin was too low for me to give. Maybe donating blood wasn’t the actual new and fulfilling thing, but the healthier life style making it possible was.

Although I started my diet/lifestyle change in January, I felt most accomplishment during the month of April.

I’m trying my hand at some theme photography. I’m starting with taking pictures of old barns and posting them here on 43 things. I may also do another couple goals involving pictures of differnt things and posting them.
