Thirty by 30 Update #1
Ok, so back in June, when I turned 27, I decided to make a list of 30 things I wanted to achieve/do by the time I turned 30. Thirty by 30.
It's been a few months now, and while I haven't gotten many things done, I'm well on the way to achieving some.
What have I done?
#5. Get the roof insulated - This was the most presing of the lot and it's done!!! thanks K-Rudd! We got the guy round to do a quote two weeks ago (quote came in at $1,595, so $5 under the grant which means no more to pay!) and they came and installed it on Friday. I have already noticed the difference...Ah-Maze-Ing!
#14. Archive all my photos on a portable hard-drive - This is half done. I have consolidated all (well, the ones on my laptop and various thumb drives) onto the one thumb drive, I just need to transfer them to the portable hard-drive and copy the discs and discs of images I have to it and it will be done.
#20. Read 200 books - since June 23rd I've read 18 books...so in 14 weeks I've read 18 books...think I'm def. on track!
23. Pay off the credit card - we are in the final stages of getting a new card that will act like a bill (no actual card!) with half the interest rate of the St.George one on balance transfers, and by my calculations it should take a lot less time to at least get rid of most of the debt.
24. Swap over and re-arrange the spare bedrooms - have done this, and all by myself...including moving the bunk bed(double on the bottom!)
Ok, so it's not a lot, but it's 5 things almost completly done. And I'm pretty proud of that!
