101 in 1,001; yeah I can do that.

I came across this idea and thought it was great. 101 goals in 1001 days.
This is an experiment.
Create 101 goals you wish to accomplish in the next 1001 days. I will try to make, and link to, posts when I accomplish a goal.

red text means it is complete.

You can do it! And I will be there to help. Except with . . . #97 - I don't swing that way no matter what our students may think.
