18. Complete National Novel Writing Month by writing a 50,000 word novel

I'm counting this as complete as I attempted to complete this challenge twice but did not reach the 50,000 mark either time. I love the idea of this challenge but have found November to be a busy time.

98. Freebie – Complete 365 Daily Self Portraits in 2008

Today I took my final 365 Days picture and of course that darn Betty Lou showed up!

I can't believe this project is actually over and that tomorrow I begin my 34th year. I'm so glad I did this even though
some days I really, really didn't want to take a picture of me. I got pretty sick of me as a subject about halfway through
the project but in the end, I had so much fun doing this.

In my 33rd year, I moved in with my love, gained a cat, started taking the bus to work, went to Hawaii, went on a great road trip with my love, saw a dear friend marry her love and on this final day, ran two Half Marathons and got my wish for a major snowstorm in Seattle.

Here are some stats from the past year:

Days Missed: 0 -- I know, A++ here!
Made Explore: 5

Most Viewed Photo: Day 168 with 15,940 all time views

With other people: 35
With animals: 12
As Betty Lou: 6
With Scott: 17
Cities taken in: 20
Taken after Half Marathon Runs with my Medals: 2
Showing my Knitting and/or yarn: 36
With Food: 26

And yes, I loved this so much, I'm considering doing a Year 2! First though I need to go and play in the snow!

30. Take public transportation to work for an entire month.

I'm claiming July as my taking public transporation to work for an entire month. I've actually begun taking the bus as my main form of transportation to work. I only drive if I need to be somewhere immediately after work. I'm really enjoying the bus and getting so much knitting in!

82. ~~Do STP~~ Run the Vancouver Half Marathon

I ran the Vancouver Half Marathon and it was great! I finished in 3 hours and 2 minutes and 56 seconds. My goal was 3 hours but heck I'll take those extra 3 minutes and be proud of what I did today.

Scott got up at O'Dark Thirty with me and sent me off at the starting line. The sun was shining and the day was just beautiful.

Photo by Scott

Julie ran the entire way with me which you know really makes the race just that much better.

Photo by Scott

Julie and I stuck to our 5 minute runs and our 1 minute walks all the way until Stanley Park. The crowd was super supportive and cheered all of us on. They printed our first names on our bibs and I do admit to being confused when people I didn't know would yell my name and cheer me on. It took oh about 6 miles to figure out that my name was on my bib! Duh!

Photo by Scott

Stanley Park was beautiful and we walked up "the hill" where you gain 200 feet in elevation in just under one mile. We picked up our 5 and 1's once we were done with the hill and ran, ran, ran our way in. The last mile may have been the LONGEST mile known to man but I am so happy with my time and so happy to be done training for a bit!

OK, OK, I know I'll be back out there running again soon but I'm going to relax this week and not worry about training!

36. Clean out my closet

I feel a bit like I'm cheating on this one but I have cleaned out my closet since I'm moving. The new closet is being carefully sorted and assembled to prevent the pile-up of the last closet. I look forward to being able to reach into my new closet without having things fall on me.

31. Floss every day for a month

One of my goals for my 101 in 1001 is to floss my teeth everyday for a month in a futile attempt to make me floss more often. I started flossing everyday on January 20th and now on February 20th, I hve flossed officially for 30 days. I may even keep this up!

Scott's place offers Yard Waste Recycling which includes food scraps and since I'm spending most of my time there, I've set up a little composting bin which I'll empty weekly into the Yard Waste Recycling bin. Easy Peasy!

43. Take a photo a day in 2007

In 2007, I took a photo a day (OK, I did miss one day). It was a year of endings and beginnings. It was the year I lost my cat, Destiny but the year I found my Scott. It was also the year that I really grew in my photography which is why 2008 will be all about self photography or ME!

90. Make No-Knead Bread

This weekend I decided to make No-Knead Bread from the New York Times. I've been holding back for awhile since this bread takes quite a long time to make. Well there isn't a lot of actual making time but there is a lot of waiting time.

I wrapped the handle for my Le Creuset pot lid in foil because you bake the bread at 450 and the pan is only guaranteed up to 375. The buyer at work said not to worry but that wrapping it in foil might be a good safety precaution. Better safe than sorry!

This bread came out delicious! I was worried because the recipe called for Instant Yeast and for some reason I bought (non-instant) Active Yeast. This just meant that instead of 18 hours of sitting, my bread needed to sit for about 28 hours.

I wanted to eat the whole loaf! I'll make this again but ummm with the right yeast this time.

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.

Even Destiny likes the yarn!

29. Donate Blood

My Dad mentioned to me that he would be donating blood this weekend so I asked if I could go along. I can't donate blood alone since I've fainted in the past. Now most of the time I donate like a rock star but I don't like to take any chances.

Today we headed up to Lynnwood and gave up the blood which also meant I could cross another item off my 101 in 1001 list! Woot!

92. Climb the water tower at Volunteer Park

Warning! Picture Heavy Post!

This past weekend, I decided to tackle one of my 101 in 1001 days challenges which was to climb the water tower at Volunteer Park.

I grabbed my camera and I headed over to Volunteer Park, slipping a bit on the ice along the way. I stepped up to the front of the water tower and snapped a few shots before heading up the stairs.

I climbed and climbed and took a little break to look out the window, halfway up the stairs.

Finally I arrived at the top and noticed a runner directly behind me. I guess some people use this tower as an exercise place!

While at the top, I read about Volunteer Park and how it came to be. Volunteer Park was purchased in 1876 and is located at the top of Capitol Hill in Seattle. In 1903, the Olmstead Brothers helped design what is now called Volunteer Park. The Olmstead Brothers' proposal included an observation tower (which I had just climbed). The water tower was finally building in 1906 and provides panoramic views of downtown, the harbor and the Cascade and Olympic Ranges. There are 106 steps to the observation deck with an elevation of 520 feet.

Volunteer Park is the home to the Seattle Asian Art Museum, a conservatory for exotic plants and its' five supporting greenhouses and cover 43-acres of land.

After all that observation, I headed back down the stairs toward Volunteer Park.

I stepped out onto the snowy road and checked out this plaque.

Before heading home, I decided to check out the traditional views at the park and snapped a few shots.

All in all it was a pretty day and I crossed something off my list!

101 in 1001 Days

The Mission:
Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days.

The Criteria:
Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on my part).

Why 1001 Days?
Many people have created lists in the past - frequently simple goals such as new year's resolutions. The key to beating procrastination is to set a deadline that is realistic. 1001 Days (about 2.75 years) is a better period of time than a year, because it allows you several seasons to complete the tasks, which is better for organising and timing some tasks such as overseas trips or outdoor activities.

Inspiration found on this website.
