1 Year Into My 4th 101 in 1001


A year ago I started my 4th 101 in 1001 list.  I knew when I started this one that it would probably be my last.  At it's end date of late December 2020, I would have had a 101 in 1001 list going for 10 years; I started my first one Jan 1, 2010.  I also made it my most realistic one & therefore the one I'd most likely accomplish the most items.

However, I've decided to end the list early.  That's right, I quit.  I had/have so many other things going on that I realized I wasn't even tracking certain tasks anymore or making an effort to accomplish some because they weren't on my immediate radar as things I needed to do.

That doesn't mean there aren't things on there that I don't still plan on doing, it just means I'm not going to have a "must be done by 12/20/20" restriction & certain items won't have a "must be done x amount of times" criteria to count.  There are others that I flat out don't care to do & therefore won't.  Some have been completed though!  So in my last ever 101 in 1001 recap I give you what I did, what I still want to do (even if it's modified), & what I do not care about anymore.
