I'm not expecting anyone to read this - after all, it has been several years since I posted anything here. However, I saw this on someone else's blog and it reminded me that I'd once tried this out. Digging around I discovered it was actually in 2006!
So I'm going to give it another go because you never know, it might make me more focused on goals I'm already thinking about. Plus it could be fun right?
The idea is what it says on the tin, you have 1001 days to complete 101 goals (it was a blogging thing back in 2006). I've also been looking at my WIPocalyse posts from back then and am ashamed to say that several of my WIPs are still lingering in their bags. Oh well, here's a chance to get some more things done...

Some items are shamelessly stolen from Erin's blog post that kicked this off for me.
