Back in late June, I saw someone post about doing “50 Things at Age 50” because she is turning 50 this year, and I was reminded of doing 101 Things several times before and quite enjoying it. I also realized that I was 1000-ish days from my own 50th birthday (1120-something, at the time, actually), so I decided to do one where the end of the 1001 days coincides with my 50th birthday.
