I started this series the other day, but work has been crazy busy, so I haven't even had the energy to write. Sleeping in today gave me the boost I needed, so here are five more things to do before 50.
1. I'd like to get involved and stay involved with some sort of community garden project. The yard at my duplex is not conducive to gardening, too much shade. I, however, want to grow some of my own food as my own little gesture of telling Monsanto and factory farming to f-off. Plus, I might finally make some friends in Windsor.
2. Before I turn 50, I am going to read some of my poems at an open mic poetry night. I've already been on stage for the MOTH Story Slam. This makes me a bit more nervous, but not paralyzed with fear.
3. I've lost a bit of confidence in my writing abilities of late. I can't bear to look at the novel I've written because it now sounds trite and trivial to me. That said, it would be nice to find a little mojo and get back to writing and enter a contest - just to prove to myself that someone might like my work.
4. An area in which I have never lost any confidence in the area of photography. I'm no Dorothea Lange , but I have always been happy with my ability to compose a shot. That said, I have never entered any of my work into a contest. It's time to change that.
5. Who wants to explore an abandoned building with me? There's something enticing and inviting about a building that has been left to Mother Nature. I understand the risks; they don't dampen my curiosity, though.
