Status Report at Halftime

About 500 of my 1001 days have gone by and I've been doing some math.  Out of the original 101 items, I have completed 17 of them and partially completed another 11.  Looking at the list with fresh eyes, I know I won't complete all of them by next Christmas.  I'll be satisfied if I get over 50 done and thrilled if I get over 75.  Some of the remainder might make the next list, some of them will be discarded to make way for new goals in my life.  Even since making the list, some new priorities have emerged that have taken some of my time and focus away from completing more of the list, which is OK.  This list was to be a series of guideposts - a place to enumerate some of my goals and some of my dreams.  I have completed all of the travel goals, but I haven't touched the creativity, home, computer, or financial goals - and many of these are important that I get done, like setting up an emergency cash fund and decluttering my house.  Time to get to work.
