Hello everyone from the DFW small things thread and all those who care to join us! :wave:

I have been asked to start this thread to keep track of our "101 things in 1001 days" challenges. I know it's not really a debt free diary as such, but if you look at my list there is a lot of paying off debts involved.

I think it would be nice to hear some of the stories behind the completed items. For example, on my list, number 86 is "Have a snowball fight". I achieved this on 5th February 2010 whilst on a skiing holiday in France with DD, her family and DS3. :D

So, here goes everyone - here is my list: http://dayzeroproject.com/user/stitchingwitch

    Hellooooo ladies:D
    I shall subscribe to your thread...although I don't have a list yet:o I wanted to do one about a year ago, but never got round to it...and din't think I could think of 101 things;)
    I really should be concentrating on my Uni work right now - but that's all due next month so hopefully I can get it out of the way then maybe think about 101 things for me....

    I look forward to reading all of your ideas:T
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    I have been (slowly) working through my list - I may post it one day if brave enough! I started it last year with a mix of big and little things. There is a long thread in the arms which is really useful to read other peoples stories for inspiration - linky x x x

    Ticked off number 87 - send a post pals letter http://www.postpals.co.uk/pals/enya+w - sent a letter and got a colouring-in sheet to send too.

    Tried to do number 44 - catch up with desperate housewives on 4od - but who'd have thunk it, too late! They've taken it off the site. That one might become catch up with boxset...one to add to my Christmas list :)
