101 in 1001

So I feel like a project like this will be fun. Basically 101 goals, 1001 days. 1001 days is a long time! But I'm going to try and make sure not to wait until the end to get everything done.

I'm counting November 28 2010 as day 1, which means I need to complete my list August 25, 2013.

Challenge:
Complete 101 goals that will improve my life or another person's life in 1001 days.

Personal Rules:
1. Goals can be changed, but only if they need to change due to a major change in our life
2. Be specific in my goals, make them all achievable
3. Blog about my progress
