101 IN 1001
In an attempt to keep myself on track, I need lists. I need goals written and numbered, my dreams laid out in such a way they can’t easily be back-burnered. I’m a list girl.
This is my list. A complete list of 101 things I want to do in the next 1001 days. I will be referring back to this list as I work on checking things off. And you? Well internet, I need you to hold me accountable.
