#41 – Done Like Dinner!

Many adventures and an overall fabulous day yesterday – which I will post about soon – but I knocked off one of my 101 in 1001 goals and it needs to be noted.
I had a few hours to kill so I went to see Duplicity in the afternoon. I enjoyed the movie but did [...]

New Year, Back on Track?

I participated in a little retail therapy today, while also situating myself to tackle one of the goals on my 101 list,  #51 – Read 100 Years of Solitude,  as I went to my local bookstore today and picked up a copy.
100 Years of Solitude and War and Peace are on my list separate from my goal [...]

Long Time, No Post, but I did knock off two of them!

Ye gads.  I had no idea how long it had been since I last posted.  This is due in no small part because I actually haven’t been working on my my 101 very much at all.   Over the last week or so I’ve re-dedicated myself to the project,  I also might make a few small [...]

#14 – Finish Christmas 2006 Socks

One of my Christmas gifts for 2006 was a promise of a pair of yummy hand knit socks for my Mum, two of my sisters, and my niece (who can be found at Slips of Prolixity) . Since this is including in my 101 in 1001 list, which began January of [...]

Update

Well, apparently I should have made one of my goals actually updating the blog. I’ve been in a bit of a holding pattern while I’ve worked on what is by far the most important task on this list, getting a job. While I haven’t accomplished that one yet, I have [...]

Change is good

I decided that since I managed to complete some of the tasks on my 101 list in 2007, I would delete those and add new ones. I’ve also replaced a few entirely, and changed the wording in some of them (to make them more specific). I will probably change a couple [...]

Woot! (Which I use in honour of it’s recent inclusion in the dictionary)

Yesterday I wrote the final exam for my desktop publishing course, and can officially move the marker on #13, Complete Business Writing certificate to 2/8 being completed. This task was of course, well underway when I drafted my list, but I’m still counting it. Next up: Critical Thinking!
Of course [...]

101/1001 – First task completed!

I am being accompanied by my niece on this 101/1001 things journey (that would be Slips of Prolixity), and she’s like kicking my ass already. In order to even the playing field a bit, I knocked off what was probably the easiest of the tasks on my list, #31, join Book Crossing.
This [...]

101 Things in 1001 Days

The Mission:
Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.
The Criteria:
Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on my part).
Why 1001 Days?
Many people have created lists in [...]
