101 Things in 1001 Days - Version 3: Half Way

Thought I should post a quick update to my 101 Things in 1001 Days v3 list, seeing as half of the 1001 days have elapsed. Current statistics:

• 1. Use facial moisturizer twice a week.
• 2. Use body lotion once a week.
• 3. Weekly Item #1.
• 4. Twice a month item, starting December 2011. (formerly Weekly Item #2)

• 65. Purge the DVR deleted file weekly.

Then there's this item: 100. Complete more items on this 101 list than I did last time. For my 101 Things V2 list, I completed 52 items. That means that for my V3 list, of the remaining 56 items not addressed above, I still need to finish another 28 minimum in the next 500 days to achieve item #100. Might need to get hopping!

Currently feeling: time is ticking away
