101 IN 1,001

I've decided to join in and create a list of 101 things I would like to complete in 1,001 days (approximately 2.75 years). I feel like this is a great way to set goals, but also be able to make progress because they aren't TOO far in the future. I was inspired by the blog a southern style, and encourage you to participate as well!
