Last year I did a 30 by 30 bucket list, so this year I'm switching it up and listing 31 things I've already accomplished. :)
#1. Became a Mum (to the best little girl in all the world!)
#2. Got Married.
#3. Shown some sticking power; this blog's coming up five years old now.
#4. Spoke in public - each and every time feels like a triumph over anxiety.
#5. Was Elected - three times!
#6. Blagged nearly £1000 worth of stuff through blogging.
#7. Briefly - very briefly - made it into the top 100 on Tots.
#8. Was voted in by my peers to serve two terms as chair of the children and young people scrutiny committee and three terms as chair of full council.
#9. I was both the youngest and the last Mayor Torfaen ever had...

#12. Learned another language.
#13. Was in the newspaper.
#14. And on the radio.
#15. Even the telly for like 3.5 seconds.
#16. Got an A in GCSE maths. I worked so hard for that A; at mocks I didn't even get a pass.
#17. Won some prizes for creativity.
#18. In fact, I've won about £10k worth of stuff over the years. Comping for the win!
