Number 73 Completed. Updates on WIP.

Completed: 73. Write a letter to myself to open at the end of 1001 days.

Believe it or not, I was surprised to find this task to be rather difficult. I mean, what do I say to myself that I would want to read in 2.75 years? What will make sense? What will make me happy to hear? What will upset me? I have no idea. . .

But, I wrote it. I tried. And it's 3 pages long. I'll let you know on August 14, 2013 whether it was what I wanted to hear or not. Maybe I'll even share what it says then. :)
The Letter, Signed, Sealed and Delivered.
Just waiting for the end.

Works In Progress:
12: Read 50 books.
I've started two. Hoping to have at least one done by the end of the week, at which point I will write a review and post a picture of the book for you. :)

52: Send or give 101 cards, not including Christmas cards.
Before I left Friday, I dropped off a card at John's house for him to get when he got home. He has been so good to me and I just wanted him to know that I *really* do appreciate it. (See Happiness post for the entire story about John.)

The Card I Gave John.

63. Grow my hair (with trims) for the next 1001 days. Donate hair when I finally cut it.
This might be one of the hardest (or one of the easiest) tasks on my list, depending on the day. I'm beginning to really love my hair longer (and will take a "before" picture soon here, probably tomorrow or Tuesday), but growing it for almost three more years. . .that could be a chore. And then donating it at the end could be rather difficult as well. Then again, by then it will be so long that I could cut off a bunch and it would *still* be long! We'll see!!

69. Save $10 for each task I complete.
I transferred $10 into my savings account. But I'm debating whether I want it there or in a jar somewhere. What will I do with it in the end? Well, that is TBD. I still don't know where I'll be, what I'll be doing or what I'll need in 2.75 years!

84. Join postcrossing.com. . . .
Well I got that much done! And I received my first address. Tomorrow I'll mail out my first postcard (along with my bills, ew!). . . I'll keep updating on that one.

Just a note: the list is subject to change, especially if I find the tasks easy to complete. :)
