I've been thinking a lot about a change I want to make to my list. Not a change in anything on the list... but kind of an addition.
As I'm crossing things off I keep thinking about when I'm done, I'd love to start another list... maybe transfer things I didn't accomplish to the new list, etc.
But then I think... instead of doing that... why not just have an on going list of 101 things. It'll help me keep track of things I want to do (instead of thinking one day "next time I make a list, I want to put X on it" and then forget it).
what I mean by this could go one of three ways:
option 1: As I cross one item off from my list, I will add another item. I will indicate next to each item on my list when I added it so that I'm still required to finish that particular item within the 1001 days. So the day I finished an item currently on the list will be the start of the 1001 days for the next item on my list. Make sense?
option 2: Every month, two months, six months... whatever, I will add a new item to the list for everything I finished in that time frame. The only benefit of this is that I will have fewer end dates to keep track of.
option 3: At the bottom of my currently list I can make an extra list and just start on the second list when the first is done.
I still haven't decided what exactly I'll be doing, but I'll be doing something...
Currently I have almost 30 items crossed off, a handful in progress, and plans for some others, so I'll really need to start thinking of things to add soon if I will be doing this.
Some things I've thought about adding:
- Take Jude to Disney
- Visit X number of National parks (including Mt. Rushmore, Grand Canyon, and Yellowstone - I think that's where old faithful is)
- See a Rocket Launch
- Buy a house specifically to rent out of flip (for Ryan)
- Start keeping a growth chart on Jude's first birthday.
- Fill the albums/frames and misc pre-made scrapbooks I have with pictures and display
- finish basement into Ryan's dream man-zone
As always... I'll keep you posted on what I decide.

I often think about how I want to do another 101 list once im done my current one. Ocassionally I think of something to add, but obviously I can't add it to my current 101, as I already have 101 items. I like your idea of possibly starting a second list, if for no other reason than to keep track of the things I want to do. I guess it could get a bit overwelming though, with all the new items having diff start and stop dates.
Let us know what you decide.
