Niiiiice. And good luck! I've actually been doing some items off my list recently, and have been wondering about writing up a new list and doing it properly. I like the way you've done it, with less than 100 items, but 100 days to do it. Far more achievable ;)

Thanks! You were my inspiration!

Crikey nora! What a woman!!! You're ace! Enjoy doing your very exciting things! It all sounds fab!
I have to say, of late I'm beginning to get a little more of the instinct to tidy, organise and throw out, and it's fun!
I might have to make myself a list too!

We did some silk screen printing at school, and recently I wanted to try it out again myself here! Funny that! Lucky you that there's a course!

What is the graphic memoir project?

How do you manage to cross things out on the computer? I mean, the line you put through a text when something on the list is 'done'? That's something I've never managed to figure out!

!!! I don't have that option on my post writing page! Bold, italics, font size, bullet points, numbered points, spell check, that's all!!

:(

What's going on?!

No idea! I'm using blogger in draft but I don't think that should affect it. Sorry!
