    101 IN 1001

    I came across a 101 in 1001 post on the blog of a fellow Canadian, Erika over at Erika, Eventually(formerly Plaid & Tartan). Since I’m a fan of making lists, and an even bigger fan of goal-setting, I decided to create one of my own! My hope is that, with your help, making a list of 101 things I’d like to accomplish in the next 1001 days (which works out to about 2.75 years) will keep me accountable to actually doing them.
