101 things: finished!
Full list
Finished! Eventual figures:
1001/1001 days, 76 completed, 2 still in progress, 23 didn't happen.
That's not too bad, I reckon. Some of the things I did do were genuinely useful (building the fixie that I now ride daily, and the weekly O'Reilly blogging that was instrumental in getting the freelance stuff going, being obvious stand-outs); many of them were much fun (writing letters!). I found the monthly check-in that I did to be a useful reminder of Stuff I Want To Get Done. I almost certainly will do this again, but with a bit more built-in flexibility; there were several things on the list that in the end I just didn't want to do (and so didn't).
002. Design and knit a cardigan - very nearly finished but not quite. And I think I need to redesign & reknit the yoke, anyway.
004. Make up a proper pattern from scratch, and make the garment from it - still at halfway stage.
023. Listen to one new album (by someone I don't know already) every week for 3 months 07.09.2009
026. Get 10 band recommendations from friends, listen to them, & review them. 27.09.2009
030. Get 10 book recommendations from friends, read them, & review them. 23.09.2009
032. Read "London: The Biography" 26.09.2009 - and very good it was too.
045. Redo upstairs bathroom 07.09.2009
066. Visit relatives in Aberdeen 18.09.2009 - lovely to see people.
080. A day doing tourist-stuff in London - kept not wanting to do this, so didn't.
101. Another 101 things list - counting this as done though won't actually do anything about it till the end of the month.
