This year has been a slow starting year for me. I have taken a lot of time recently to just hibernate, recuperate, and reflect on quite a few things in my life. I’m slowly dragging myself back to the land of the living and I figured a good way to get me motivated was to create a new bucket list. Because let’s get real, I love me some lists. The last few years I was completing my first 101 Things in 1,001 Days Challenge. It ran from May 2015 to Jan 2018. It’s kind of amazing to look back at that original list now and see how much my priorities and goals have changed since then. While some of those items are carrying over to my new list, I definitely wanted to branch out a little more.
Start Date: April 1, 2018
End Date: December 27, 2020
