Sadly, my last posted update was January 5th, 2010 — almost an entire year ago! Well, I’ve scratched some things off my list since then, luckily!
About the project: On Monday, July 13th, 2009, I created a list of 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days. The idea came from DayZeroProject.com. I have until April 19th, 2012 to complete my list!
The full list can be found here, but to sum it up, here’s what I’ve been busy getting accomplished these last 11 months:
Travel:
3. Go whitewater rafting. – Done. Our River Expeditions trip on 8/20-8/22 2010
13. Visit Denver. – Done. Thanksgiving week, 2010
16. Go to a Buffalo bills game. – Done. October 11, 2009
21. Go to Dinosaur BBQ with BF. – Done. Kind of. We went, but didn’t eat. Turns out I don’t like their food anymore. So I decided not to waste the trip with BF. However, I added number 21.5 to my list!
24. Go to Boston. – Only partially done. We went to a suburb of Boston briefly in April.
21 and a half. Participate in a polar bear plunge. – Done. January 2010.
Personal/Social:
30. Get a mani/pedi. – Done. April 2010 before our Maine trip. And July 3, 2010
34. Go an entire year without swearing. – Began 12/15/10
36. Send at least one hand-written note/card each month. – Been going strong with this one from the start!
40. Paint a new piece of pottery. – Done. 11/12/10
Financial:
64. Pay off half of my debts. – Will be a work in progress for some time.
65. Buy a new car. – Done. November 2010 I bought my first ever brand new car! see picture!
66. Pay off my credit cards. – This will be one of those ongoing things.
67. Re-evaluate and re-do my current budget. Then, sixty days after, reevaluate to determine if it works for me. – My budget has been reevaluated and still isn’t working. So, I’ll try again this month!
68. Sell unused electronics on Craigslist or Ebay. – Done. April 2010
71. Donate $150 to a non-profit. – I was donating to WCPN, our Cleveland NPR station, monthly.

87. Get a massage.
90. Go on a 30-day caffeine detox. – Done. October-November 2010.
93. Get my eyebrows waxed at least 3 times (this may seem really lame to some, but really I never NEED to have it done. I just thought it would be a nice thing to do for myself). – 1 of 3 times completed thus far!

An Etsy business? That is AWESOME!!!! Can't wait to see all your goodies. Maybe I can be your first customer 🙂
Are you sure number 100 isnt a typo? 30 days not 3?
oosh, congrats on that one!
Awesome girl! Sounds like you accomplished a lot!
Great job…I need to work on my list myself.
