Updating my 101 List

Okay, so I realized today that I’ve done some of the things on my 101 things in 1001 days list that I have accounted for.

Here they are (in no particular order)

#23- Host Sunday lunch- on Sunday we hosted our church for Sunday lunch. Each Sunday we have a meal after church sometimes its in someone’s home, sometimes its at the church. This Sunday we hosted. Because it’s July there were only 26 people in church, but 23 of them came to my house for lunch. It was a very interesting challenge finding sitting spaces for all those folks.

#26- Visit a zoo or aquarium- I want to go to more than one, but last weekend we visited the Columbus Zoo in Ohio with B’s sister, who has a pass. We didn’t have much time (only 2 hours for the whole zoo) but it was fun anyway.

#28- Plant a garden. I don’t know if what I have qualifies as a garden or not, but I do have containers of mint, basil, tomatoes and peppers on my deck. It’s as much of a garden as I”m going to get this year.

#39- Create a reading corner in my house- I bought a chair for the particular corner I was thinking about and put a lamp in it and fluffed it out with blankets and pillows, but I haven’t done much reading there. Maybe this winter when its too cold to read on the deck, my current reading spot.

#44- Buy and use reusable grocery bags- I have not actually bought any bags, but I have acquired a number as free giveaways at various things. I’m working at remembering to use them. Of course the unplanned walmart trips with the hubby don’t lend themselves to reusable grocery bags, but hopefully I’ll get more and more used to carrying them with me. And if I totally ran out of plastic bags I wouldn’t have anything to clean out the litter box with, so I won’t be able to go totally plastic bag free I don’t think.
