I’m not sure where this will lead me, but I hope it’s on an adventure that will last the next 1001 days. Does anyone even know when 1001 days from now is? Lol Either way after some motivation from some good friends a few of us have decided to motivate each other to accomplish 101 things within 1001 days, it’s called the Day Zero Project. My main goal for my list is to help me enrich my own life as well as make me a better friend, sister, daughter and all around person. I hope I can accomplish that as well as have a great time doing it. Who knows maybe I’ll learn something? Only time will tell! (1001 days to be exact ;-) )
