101 in 1001

So I ran across this website http://www.dayzeroproject.com/ and have decided to give a go! The jist of it is you make 101 specific goals you want to achieve in 1001 days. Simple. It took me like a week to make my list. Hope this inspires others to make a list of their own! I am going to blog about each goal I complete and will update the list with the dates completed etc. So, my start date is March 16th 2010. So.... my end date will be December 11th 2012.

Wow. Those are some pretty lofty goals. I can help you out with #72. And I can't believe what I'm reading on #15. Never thought that would be one of your goals.
