A Challenge!

I ran across the neatest idea in the January 2010 issue of Real Simple magazine.

Side note: I love Real Simple. How about you?

Anyway, I love this idea and I'm taking the challenge on for myself (rephrased from its original publication):

I will do 101 things I have never tried before in 1,001 days.

How freeing is it to try something new and completely different? And the time frame is certainly reasonable - 1,001 days=2 years, 8+ months. Doable, right?

Here's what I'm already thinking about putting on my 101 List:

1. Replacing a light switch (without hiring someone to do it for me)
2. Parachuting
3. Refinishing an antique desk
4. Making a container herb garden
5. Visiting the Blue Bell factory

I'd love to have you join me - we can hold each other accountable! Drop a note in the comments section if you'd like to participate. We'll kick off the 101 days on March 1st and periodically track our progress!
