101 in 1001 in 2010 :)

Almost two years ago I started my 101 in 1001 list, and failed miserably . . . while I did achieve a number of goals on my list, many of them, now that I look back, aren't appropriate for where I'm at in my life right now. Considering this is a new decade, I'm officially 30, and have completely (almost) started over in so many other areas of my life, I want to do a brand spankin' new 101 in 1001 list - one that I print and tack to the wall above my desk, and read everyday with inspiration and happiness :) So here it is, my fresh 101 in 1001 list!
