I'm going to have my start day be today, which is 9/18/2009. That makes day 1001-- 6/14/2012.
I'm going to post about each one of my goals, so I might as well start with the one I just finished:
3. Compile all 101 things.
I don't have too much to say about completing this one except that I'm excited to do some of the things on this list. I will check back and post about each one I complete or have partially completed since some have more than one task. No to strike out my 1st completed goal!
