You can find the original post here but this is the just of it. I followed a trend happening in 2009 that told me to do 101 things in 1001 days. Doesn't sound to bad right? I think the hardest part was to create the darn list. LOL
Heres the list (with things crossed off that I've already complete)
Starting today - Thursday, December 3rd 2009
Ending date - Thursday, August 30th, 2012
So I was able to complete
9. Take Hannah to her first dentist appointment
12. Teach Hannah to ice skate <- she LOVES it
20. Have Hannah in daycare part time - she goes to preschool twice a week and has been going since July and again she LOVES it
38. Buy a new comfy computer chair
58. Donate all of my unused old clothes to the Salvation Army
59. Clean out my closet
92. Win something from the many blog contests I enter each and every day <- I have a few times now
97. Have coffee with someone I haven't seen in a while <- an old high school friend and I got together after having our kiddos a week apart. We had a great time and have gotten together a few times since.
101. Do another boudoir photo shoot <- SO MUCH FUN!!!
There, now I only have 64 left to do before August!
