A long overdue task - started, but not quite finished


Number 9 of my 101 things to do is to finally finish my honeymoon* photo album. I made good progress today, but then got bored with stupid sticky corner thingies. Anyway, we got back from our honeymoon at the end of May 2004, so hopefully the album will be completed within 5 years...


* - We went to Cuba and had the most wonderful time, so much so, we went back again last year for our 4 year weddink anniversary

And we're off!


Hurrah! I have crossed the first thing from my list. No. 94 - buy Mum a present just for being Mum.

I was in Oliver Bonas in Richmond mooching around earlier today and saw this lovely little glass pot. It reminded me of the pots my Nanny used to have on her dressing table when I was a kid, so I bought it for my Mum.

Planning, not doing...


So, nothing on my list is done yet. However! I have piled up all of the books I plan to read - evidence in this picture. They should keep me going for a while and I'll make sure I make the time to read one of them a month.

Next week I'm off to Cornwall, and I hope to tick a few things off my list - building a sandcastle, a clifftop walk...

So here it begins!

I've set up my first ever blog, so the list is official. 1001 days from now is 18th October 2011 and I need to have completed my 101 things by then!

Some of the things on my list are lighthearted and fun, and some mean more...especially number 21. So, wish me luck, here we go!
