MY 101 THINGS

October will be here before I know it - I figured I might as well do a once over of the list!!

Thanks to Molly I have decided to do my own 101 Things...

The mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.

The criteria: The tasks must be specific (no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined.

Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (represent some amount of effort on your part).
