ReplyDeleteNicole - I don't know you but I want to say that I love what you're doing here.
ReplyDeleteLibby - I'm not used to calling you this but you're awesome. This makes me bawl. I know you guys will do it. ((( hugs )))
Thanks, j. :) And hj. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're devoted to each other and to this mission. I hope you two will continue to read.
May I suggest for the first foreign movie: Antonia's Line. I guaran-damn-tee you will love it. And if you don't have a weird little hole-in-the-wall video store that has it, let me know. I'll find it for you.
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda sad that so many of these are about buying/accumulating 'things' - things don't make us happy or fall in love. especially in light of the budget post later on. :(
ReplyDeleteYour idea is fantastic - best of luck. Maybe you could replace the buying with more making?
What an awesome idea to approach this as a couple! I was inspired by the thought of completing 101 things in 1001 days, but you ladies have taken it to another, beautiful level. I love how your list contains things just for one of you, but most are for both of you, which to me demonstrates the basis for a very healthy relationship. [You need to keep your individuality in a relationship.] Good luck and I'll be checking back...after I make my own 101 in 1001 list.
