101 things in 1001 days

Here is my list again...I revisited it yesterday, and got to cross some stuff off! YIPPEE! Just remember if you make your own list, please send me the link I WOULD LOVE TO READ IT! :)

Over at Three Blondes and a Redhead, I found this challenge. I thought that it looked cool, and fun to do so I am going to try it.

What it is: 101 things you would like to accomplish in 1001 days. Essentially they have to have a time frame...so you can't just say I want to be a better person. They have to be things that you can actually see that you have done...anyhow go on over to here to read more about it. Link up to Three Blondes and a Redheads mr. linky...and definately comment here if you decide to take the challenge because I would love to read your list!

When I get finished with it I will post the date next to it...and if it is in progress I will post in progress!

These are the way they came out in my brain...no specific order! :)
