So I have been attempting to update my 101 in 1001 list for about a week now because I wanted to complete it before New Years and unfortunately the website seems to have chosen to crash just as I was deciding to take part in this adventure once again. Therefore, I am going to attempt to get my list of things together here (since I had already written an extensive list on the other website) in time to get started on them by the beginning of 2011. So here you are. My list of 101 things to do in 1001 days.
Please note: these do include some things I was working on from my previous list so they may have older dates included.
Note on colors: The fuchsia is the original list. Purple is complete and blue is in progress.
