I had such fun ticking things off my last list of 101 things in 1001 days that I couldn’t wait to do another one. So just before the new year I sat down, racked my brains and came up with a whole new list. Well, I use the term “new” loosely because some of the things I carried over from my last list, because sometimes 1001 days are just not enough. Plus, I’m working on the premise of second time lucky.
Because patience isn’t my strong point, I couldn’t wait to publish this blog post to get started on the new list and what better time to start than a brand new, new year. So I got the 101 things party started on the 1st of the month and by my calculations, I have until September 29th 2019 to tick everything off.
