I am a huge list maker. I make lists for everything, to do, to read, to travel, to see. My lists have lists. So I saw a few fellow bloggers doing a 101 in 1001 list and thought it looked fun. Plus coming up with 101 goals, wishes, to dos big and small seems pretty simple to me. Checking things off of my to do’s or goal lists always makes me feel such a sense of accomplishment, and just having these lists help me to avoid procrastination.
So here are my 101 (not quite so many since I am sure I will find more to add in the roughly 3 years I have to accomplish them!) things I wish to do, see, experience, accomplish, whatever! in the next 1001 days.
