101 ... Time's Up

I have been working on 101 goals, and the time limit I set for myself ended yesterday. I am pleasantly pleased by how many of them I was able to do. And I am not giving up, I have a few of the things scheduled, such as a trip to see Mount Rushmore in 2 weeks and fishing in 4 weeks. Some of the goals were just not realistically feasible because people moved or just did not have time to get with them to do what needed to be done. I learned a lot from it. I had a ball doing a lot of it (i.e. trip to Boulder and cruise to Europe!!) I would do it again. Not all of my goals were accomplished in the time I had set (i.e. I just graduated) but they were accomplished, so I crossed them off. Thanks again to Wretch for inspiring me! Love to copy you in so many things (see future post about me playing in the rain this weekend with my nieces!)

I was able to finish 72 out of 101, C average?! Yeck yes! Some of the goals were not finished, but are close (i.e. watching all of the Oscar winning films from over the years) So the final list with things crossed off is below:
