101 Goals in 1001 Days

So its no secret that I love lists and when I saw this 'task' of making a goal list I knew I had to make my own. I haven't posted any lists on this new blog but thats okay because this is the mother of all lists. I actually had a hard time coming up 101 goals. This could be because I have no idea what my life will be like in 2011 when its done. I still completed it anyway.

I did this a couple of years ago! It was super fun, but life got in the way and i ended up not following through.. Maybe I will dust off my old list and try again!

Oh, and if you want help learning how to sell your goods online or at craft fairs, let me know. I do craft fairs occasionally and own a variety of websites including www.perpetualpaperworks.com, www.diaperdecisions.com and I have an etsy shop.

I saw someone else do this awhile back ... I may just give in and write one up myself. Did you make up your own headers or was that something you went by?
