101 in 1001!

Ok I heard this idea a few months ago, and thought it was cool, not for me of course but for someone who is cool...anyways, i kept making excused for myself as to why I couldn't/wouldn't/shouldn't commit to doing this.

What am I talking about? Commiting to accomplishing 101 goals in 1001 days! It sounds like a lot, and it is but what a sense of accomplishment will I feel when I accomplish this?! I am so excited to share my goals with all of you please help cheer me on...I will need it! They are in no particular order of importance or anything, but they are all things that I truely want to complete.

Ha! I made your list 3 times! That means 2.97% of your goals for the next 2 1/2 years pertain to me! A couple of notes on your goals list:

1. What did I tell you about saying preggers?
2. I wish I had an uncle named Owl.
3. You should add me to a couple of your goals: i.e. get a new purse FOR LIZZ, attend a concert WITH LIZZ, be lazy for a day WITH LIZZ, ride the light rail WITH LIZZ, get a massage WITH LIZZ, attend a play WITH LIZZ, go visit the snow WITH LIZZ, go on a hike WITH LIZZ (both of these can be done in Flag!), vacation to the beach WITH LIZZ. So many options!
4. You are amazing!
