101 in 1001: Round 2

101 in 1001: Round 2

Saturday, December 16, 2017

Almost fours years ago I started a project called 101 in 1001. It wasn't quite a to-do list, but not really a bucket list either, but something in between. I created a list of 101 things that I wanted to do in 1001 days.

Well, day 1001 is on Monday. So I put pen to paper (fingers to keyboard?) for round two:
