100 Days
Posted on September 23, 2019 by prairiemoonquilts in ChallengesHere we are again . . . September 23 . . . That magical day when there are only 100 days left in the year.
Time for me to make another list of “100 Things To Do in the Next 100 Days”.
I usually do three of these lists every year, but this year, I only did two. I had so many leftover projects on my first list, I just decided to keep chipping away at it until today, when I will make my final list of “100 Things . . . ” to finish out the year.
You can read about some of my other attempts at this; for last year, HERE, and for 2013 HERE, and for 2017, I did a “50 Things . . . ” list HERE.
I keep all my lists in this book, which is slowly filling up with my lists over the years!
It’s like a little game I play with myself, to stay motivated, and to see if I can beat my old records. I’ve never yet made it all the way to 100, but this keeps me trying!
Here’s a few of the things on my list this year:
- • Make 20 more pillowcases for the guild’s charity stash
- • Donate 2 more quilts to the guild’s Comfort quilt stash
- • Finish my Morning Glory quilt
- • Finish 4 more scrap quilt tops (I’ll list these each separately, once I decide which ones)
- • Quilt at least 2 of my own quilts
So what are YOU going to do with the last 100 days of 2019?
I did notice that there were 100 days, but hadn’t thought of making a 100 days list. That is a good idea. I definitely want to finish binding my old UFO and get my sewing room cleaned and organized. I’d also like to get other UFOs also finished but I will have to wait and see if I can find the time to do that.
This is a great idea. I will share the idea at my guild tonight and start working on my list. I expect many of the items on the list will involve cleaning and decluttering. Thanks for all you do for us!
Sounds like fun! I like the idea of keeping the lists from year to year. I have kept my annual plans and sometimes I am amazed at what is accomplished. Your list is challenging–20 pillow cases sounds impressive. A long time ago in BlueBirds or Camp Fire Girls we vowed to “Finish what I have begun” I think my fall list will include a lot of that sort of thing. I echo the thanks for your encouraging challenges!
Wow, I love this motivational idea! Think I will make my list today and just see where this adventure leads me.
I am feeling confident I can list 100 things that need done with no problem! Should be very interesting to compare it to the next list made!
Thanks for the idea! Wishing everyone great progress!
I love this idea!! I am a compulsive list maker. Off to make my list.
I’m liking the idea of having that book made into a new book with blank pages. How fun is that? I had no idea there were 100 days left. Ha. Maybe a list would be good 🙂
