77. Finish the Hourglass Sweater
This weekend, I finished my Hourglass Sweater even though this project had become a huge insurmountable task for me.
The thought of tacking up the seams on my Hourglass Sweater brought me to tears.
I sat myself down and had a heavy discussion with me. I said that I had to tack down the seams. Also having Jessica read the instructions to me helped oh so much since I guess actually reading the instructions proved too difficult a task!
After some long nights of knitting, I finished my Hourglass Sweater.
Hourglass Sweater Project Details:
Pattern: Hourglass Sweater from Last Minute Knitted Gifts
Yarn: Noro Cash Iroha in Color 101
Started: August 2006
Finished: February 2007
Things I would change: I love this pattern!

50. Prepare my will
I'm pretty lucky as my Mom works in Estate and Family Law. I asked her to prepare my will and she sent me a copy to proof. I thought it looked great and went down to her law office today to sign my will in front of two witnesses and a notary. My Mom supervised all of us and told me where to sign. So now I have a will. I have nothing to leave any one (well Meg has already laid claim to my yarn and knitting books and she can have them over my cold dead body, oh! well she's welcome to them when I'm gone) but hey I have a will!

47. Organize my filing cabinet and throw away old papers
My filing cabinet has been a bit of a mess. So much so that I tend to avoid using it and just quickly cram more paper into its' drawers as I dart by. Today I decided to tackle this 101 goal and get that cabinet organized.
I'm happy to say that now all the labels are neat and tidy, the folders are nicely arranged and best of all, there is room for more paper! Yippee!
And once the filing cabinet was all organized, I took out the recycling
and shredded the shredding.

70. Buy a Custom Timbuk2 Messenger Bag
After much thought and discussion with Mot and Meg, I ordered my new Timbuk2 bag. I love it already and can't wait to use it. This will be a wonderful addition to my bag collection. I've included the manufacturer's photo here as my photos do not show my new bag in her best light.

97. Use my $50 gift certificate to Knit Picks
When I was sick last week, I decided to go shopping at Knitpicks and got some great yarn. Now I'm just waiting for it to arrive. I'm so impatient!
Updated -- My yarn has arrived! Yippee!
Even Destiny likes the yarn!

69. Buy an external hard drive and 27. Back up all of my important computer data (esp. pictures, music and blog) and arrange for regular, automatic backup
Last weekend, I headed over to Radio Shack and picked up this external hard drive. It has 400 Gigs of space and was a steal at $100. Another item off the list!
