101 update 2/18/08

8. Play in grass/sand volleyball tournament--Did both and several times last summer. I will do this again in May when it starts up again.

15. Go snorkeling--Done on the cruise while in Cozumel and in Nassau. I loved it and want to do it again and again.

20. Buy pair of designer jeans or handbag. Did both and developed a crush on Joe's Jeans. Love em, bought another pair today.

25. Grow my hair to shoulder length. It is amazing what I thought to put on my list, but this one is done, mostly so I can put it back up again.

33. Cruise to the Caribbean--Hated the cruise for the most part but at least now I know. Parts were great, but being herded on and off the ship--annoying.

51. Get a good paying job in my field--Oh the irony!! I have a great technical writing job which I will soon leave. Damn you 101 list!!

55. Professional writing certificate--Don't have the certificate yet but I finished it. Woot woot!!

66. Learn to like sushi. I am still trying and will continue to try. This one may be undoable.

76. See an AVP tournament game. I saw one in Chicago, the semi-finals. I'll probably get to see more in Vegas.

85. Carve an intricate pumpkin. It didn't look great but I think it qualifies. I did spend a few hours on it and had to use a special tool. See below...



90. Replace all old lamps in the house. Ben actually did this for me but it's still done.

95. Repaint the kitchen. Again, I didn't actually do this one, but I delegated?? Thank you Kathy and Charlie!

96. Repaint the half bath. Ditto numero 95.

98. Cultivate an herb garden. I grew all of the herbs that I was given. Thank you Cindy, they grew, I used them and then the drought killed them all. Maybe this spring they'll grow back.

101. Organize the closets, throw out stuff we don't use. Did this and donated anything salvageable to Goodwill.

Without realizing it, I'm doing pretty good!
