One week before I start my challenge!!!

With less than one week before I start my 30 by 30 in 3 challenge, I'm starting to get very excited...  I want to begin NOW! I allowed myself to plan ahead, which is half the fun sometimes =)... here's my progress to date.

#7: The Gran Fondo is a Century (100 mile) bike ride on May 20, so I started training for it a few weeks ago...  need to kick my rear in gear, though, don't want to die on those hills!

#11: I already have 3 trips planned - going to New Orleans for work, Ecuador and the Galapagos end of May, and Key West for Marcia's bachelorette party, all places I've wanted to go to!

And I already have ideas for how to celebrate my big day in style (#21 - bottle service... sometimes to get a private space in one of these fancy night clubs in NYC you need to purchase a bottle of liquor for an obscene amount of money, but I think it might be a nice thing to do for the big day!)... everyone keep the evening of Saturday, July 7 open!  Plans to be shared soon =)

See below for some tentative dates on a few of the other items: see below and let me know if you want to join!
#1: Sky diving, tentatively Saturday June 30
#5: Eat at a 3 star Michelin restaurant - TBD, who's going with me?  3 course chef tasting at 3 different potential restaurants for $108
#13: Day in NYC - TBD, but probably June given the Gran Fondo training commitment.  I'm thinking the NY Botanical Gardens, a museum, shopping at Tiffany's/Fifth Avenue, fabulous dinner, and maybe a show on Broadway or comedy club
#14: Jersey Shore - I think this will be after sky diving on June 30... Katrin, you in?
#15: Lucky Chen's - date TBD, who's going with me?  This is the Chinese drag queen restaurant =) =) =) I've heard great things about it!!!

As for #28... finish the counted cross stitch that I've been working on for a while... I have a LONG way to go... see what it's supposed to look like on the left, and how far I've gone as of today...



Don't forget to vote for what my 30th should be... if you don't like the options, leave a comment with your thoughts =)

I can't wait for April 7th!!!
