Happy 300!

Posts that is. It's been a long and silly three hundred posts around these parts. I've hosted giveaways. I've met some lovely ladies. I've learned a *lot* about wedding planning and what it means to be a mommy (I can't help but read "mommy blogs!"). In honor of reaching 300, I thought I would update my 101 goals in 1001 days post. Here's a quick glimpse at things I've accomplished so far or things that are in progress.

Bold: Completed
Italics: In progress

Personal:

1. Graduate with my Master’s: In progress. Five classes to go.

5. Pay off my car {One crappy Dodge Neon paid off.}

6. Upgrade my car {One Dodge Caliber financed}

9. Have date nights with my boy at least once a month: We are pretty consistent and usually go out at least once a week.

10. Have girl’s nights every month: Again, usually consistent. I try to see the girls for happy hour once a week.

11. Have a job I love: I'd say this is in progress.

12. Get a raise {I started a new job in April '10}

13. Get a promotion {Technically, it's a promotion}

18. Join Swap-bot and participate in 5 swaps {Love Swap-Bot! I've actually completed 100 swaps in just eight months!}

20. With the last one, keep an updated address book with actual physical addresses: Since I've been wedding planning, I've been asking people for their address so I can start collecting.

26. Organize the office into something inspirational and beautiful: All my stuff has its place. I wouldn't say it's "beautiful," but it's progress.

27. Get married: We set the date for February 19, 2011. Looks like this is on track. ;)

28. Find something to do with that dresser of mine that I refuse to part with {Going to move it to another room and swap it for something smaller}

30. Get a pedicure: A hot pink one at that.

47. Only go out for lunch at the most twice a week (bring healthy lunches to work)

53. Take a road trip

54. Go deep sea fishing: Twice. Once in the Keys and once in Clearwater. I puked only once.

58. Go cave tubing in Belize: If my honeymoon planning goes right, we will hit Belize on one of the stops!

89. Have a well stocked bar in the house: As said in the previous post, I can turn one of the rooms into a bar!

91. Go to a minor league baseball game: Done twice now. Once we could bring the pup!

92. Buy something from ETSY: I purchsed from Leen Machine and totally scored with My Belle Boutique. I suggest following her on Facebook. She has comment games ALL the time. I purchased three pairs of earrings, a pearl bracelet, a headband and a personalized washer necklace for a shockingly low price by "winning" her comment games. By winning, you get her products at a discounted rate.

How have your 101 in 1001 been coming along? Any milestones? I'd love to try to keep each other in check. The one section of my list NOT going so well is the fitness section. Oy.
