The “Lists”

So you’ve all seen The Bucket List with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson…They create a Bucket List of all the things they want to do before they die. Well, here’s mine…

I got lots of stuff that needs crossing off!

1. Alaskan Cruise
2. Have a baby!
3. Parasailing
4. Go to Vegas
5. Hatch Chile Festival
6. Ice Fish
7. Ride a moped in Rome
8. Ride in a hot air balloon
9. Take an RV cross country
10. Niagara Falls
11. Go to Australia
12. Watch a Broadway play
13. Take a passenger train somewhere
14. Cook every recipe in a cookbook

And similar to the Bucket List, I have found a new phenomenon called “101 Things in 1001 Days.” It’s Bucket List-ish  list that consists of 101 things you want to accomplish in the next 1001 days. There are a few things on my Bucket List that made the 101 List, but others I left off because I just don’t think I’ll get to them in the next 2.5 years… Some are attainable, others will take a little effort on my part. You can view my list here on the official Day Zero website. It keeps track of the percentage you’ve completed, along with a countdown of how many days are left. You can also change the status to in progress or completed as you go. You can view others’ lists and find out how to join yourself!
