101 Goals in 1001 Days

Welcome to 101 in 1001.

This project entails that I come up with 101 things I'd like to do/get done in 1001 days (starting today March 6, 2015 and ending December 1, 2017). About a goal/item every 10 days. Completely do-able, especially for bigger projects. And I find it motivating as I have a deadline to meet and it keeps me moving forward.

I've done this sort of project before the girls were born and let it fizzle away. I'm determined this time to complete it as much as I can. And if you want to hold me accountable, I'm all for that as well.

These projects are a mixture of big goals (like reading 101 new books or painting the kitchen) and small goals (like trying 10 new recipes and printing off photos). And I like that. It means that I can choose what I want to work on right now and once some stuff lines up for the big projects (like finances and time for re-painting the kitchen), then we can do that.

Here it goes and wish me luck!
