Autumn Bucket List

I did a thing! I made an Autumn Bucket List! Fall isn’t even here yet and I already am afraid I’m going to miss it! I was just telling Bruce that we’re two weekends into September and I need to get things on the calendar asap or it will be Winter before we know it! That is the ENFJ & Enneagram 7 in me! Being dramatic, wanting all the adventures, and needing to plan them to make sure they happen!

I am a list maker. I am currently sitting at my computer with a pile of sticky notes stacked next to me covered in lists. Some of them are ideas, some of them are work to-dos (like write this post), and some of them are life to-dos (like order groceries!) While totally outdated and crumpled from Hilde stealing them once or twice, I feel good about physically writing things down and crossing things off. So this year I made a list of all the things I want to do / get on the calendar so that I know I am making the most of my favorite season! ⁠

Do you want one too? Because I totally made it a PDF download so that I could share it with any other bucket list lovers out there! CLICK HERE to download it! The whole process was fun and exhilarating and I think I may have started another tradition in my life so don’t be surprised when I make one of these again for Winter, and then Spring, and then Summer! Haha!

I may still add more (I still have 9 blank spots to fill in if I want to be a completionist!) but this is it for now! Some of these things are kind of lofty so we will see how many actually get checked off. But I’ll tell you what, it feels good to write it all down so I can start to plan for it!
