101 in 1001: FAIL

Ok, so I failed. I started my 101 list, did great for, oh, 2 days…. then completely abandoned it. I am just not cut out for it! I am way too busy and have way too much going on. I have now amended the list to just be a life list! Now I can also add really big things on this and take out some other things that I honestly just put in for filler. I will continue to edit this list as needed.

I commend anybody who can do this!

101 in 1001: Items 87 and 90 Completed

Since I started my list a couple of months ago, I have reached 2 of the goals.

87. Order calling cards for my dad.

About a year ago, I saw in my dad’s car some of those little cards that go in graduation invitations, with the graduate’s name on them. On the front was my brother’s name, in scrolly black ink… With my brother’s first name crossed out, and my dad’s handwritten in. On the back, he listed his phone number. He was actually giving these to people! I knew I wanted to give him calling cards made just for him. For Father’s Day, I had them printed up via VistaPrint and he LOVED them!

90. Buy a family vehicle.

If you had told me when I started this list that I would cross this one off so quickly, I wouldn’t have believed it. With 3 children in child seats, we needed a lot more space than our pickup and small sedan could provide. We just didn’t have the money to spend on a car at this time. However, a series of unfortunate events led us down the path to buying a new car. Love my minivan!

I finally have a 101 in 1001 tab on my blog. I started this list a month or so ago, and just now finished it! To learn more, visit the Day Zero site, linked from my 101 page.

I am so excited about this journey and challenge you all to begin one of your own!

I am going to post about each item on my list, with further explanations and stories behind the goals. I will also post when I complete a goal, or encounter challenges along the way! This should be a lot of fun!
