Day Zero

Let's get this started! Second time is a charm right? Or is this the third? Either way, I'm excited about this one. I went to Pinterest to find some ideas of things to do for my list, and it was interesting to see the varying levels of completion as well as the lists of other bloggers.

2016 {goals}

Whether or not you write them down, or tell others there is a strong chance that you will make New Years Resolutions. Lose weight, read more, cook at home more yada-yada. Generally the resolutions are generic, yet occasionally meaningful and inspiring. I don't think I shared mine last year, and the only reason I'm sharing them this year is so that I can keep myself accountable through you.

#78 completed!

I did it. I joined  3groups on meetup.com

Books and Booze
Lindy Hop, Swing and Jazz Dance
Party with a Purpose for shelter animals


I am excited to go to my first meet for any of these!!

Proof!! haha


So I talked to Momma this morning, both she and my step-daddy like Peacock. Step-Daddy called him Richard Gere.

And then talked about how dangerous a 'cute couple' like he and I are. I laughed. A lot. But it did make me happy that he passed the initial meeting of the parents test. 

Day Zero

So I am going to do this right this time around.

First I want to start off with a little information about the Day Zero 101 things to do in 1001 days challenge.

The Criteria: 
Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on your part).

Why 1001 Days? 
Many people have created lists in the past - frequently simple challenges such as New Year's resolutions or a 'Bucket List'. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organising and timing some tasks such as overseas trips, study semesters, or outdoor activities.

It's really fun, I also found a list of the most popular 101's! I read this after doing my list and there are a lot of great ideas! I'll have to use it for my next 101!

I am so excited about this list and to get it started. Like I mentioned yesterday, there is a chance of me doing things on this list two or three times. Which I am excited about. But the reason being I may do some of them by myself at first, then with Peacock, and lastly there is a possibility that I do them with Peacock and Little Peacock(his son). 

Which by the way Peacock met my parents last night. I think it went over well. :)  I didn't get any calls this morning about him from momma so I'm relaxed. 

Hope ya'll have a GREAT monday!!
