Welcome to my journey

Welcome to my blog about my 101 things to do in 1001 days. My journey ends on May 13th, 2013.

Some of these will be things I have been wanting to do for a long time. Some will be everyday things to improve my quality of life. I'm always striving to become a better person and mom.
