Over the weekend I completed my 101 Things To Do in 1001 Days list. It was actually kind of hard. I did end up going to the day zero website and clicked on other peoples blogs to get inspired. Items in bold I have completed (with the completed date). Items in italic I have started (with dates if appropriate).
In all reality, I think the reason for this list and the time deadline is to ensure you actually do some of the things you always think you will do. It will also bring to the forefront things you thought you wanted to accomplish but maybe are not as important to you as you once thought.

If you're interested, the web design class I took was online and you should be able to take it, too. Let me know if you want the information about it. :)
Great list!
I took a leaf out of your list of things - i love the genealogy, the japanese rock garden (bonsai for me!), & the writing! Good luck with your journey!
