one year has passed




Yeah - 365 days are done!!
I can't believe one year has already gone by for the 101 things in 1001 days project.  Here are some recent updates on my project:

Read: The World is Flat - by Thomas Friedman
The Big Book of Breakfast (yes, it is a recipe book but I am in love with it)
How to Make a Journal of Your Life
A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd
The Dance of the Dissident Daughter by Sue Monk Kidd
The End of the Alphabet by CS Richardson
Currently reading: Q & A (the book Slumdog Millionaire is based on)


Did: 
- Bought my new mac laptop. I love it!!!
- Many creative things were made in December: Bags, pillows, daytimers, aprons - all for Christmas presents

- Signed up for the 1/2 marathon race in May so am running 2-3 times per week again.
- Another girls weekend is taking place in mid-February...looking forward to it
- Had my annual Christmas brunch with 22 guests... I think that brings me up to speed on having people over.
- Used two opportunities to give of my time and resources to those in need over the Christmas season

So after a year, I think I am in good shape. I have completed 19 items on the list and there are 28 items in progress.  With 635 days to go, I think I will make a good dent in the list. I may not complete but that is okay with me.
