So I'm at about 500 days into my 2nd 101 in 1001 Challenge. Seriously, 1001 days is a LONG LONG time! I always start out with the best intentions but as time goes on I forget about certain goals that I've set for myself. When I started this 2nd challenge I was about a month into my 1st year of teaching. Now, I'm 4 months away from finishing up my 2nd year of teaching and at the end of the challenge I will have just finished my 3rd! Not that it's really an excuse as to why I am not doing so hot but a lot can change in 1001 days. Hell I'm not where I thought I'd be 8 months ago...how in the world am I supposed to know what exactly I'll be able to do/want to do 1001 days in the future? (That's about 2 years & 9 months by the way)
Anyway...
