Day Zero: 66/1001 days update

Two months into the Day Zero challenge I've realized that I need to actually post my list up in the apartment because I'd totally forgotten some of the things that are on the list and I definitely need a visual reminder of my goals.

With that caveat, I've only been able to fully cross three things off the list.  But, I'm making progress on others and I think now that I'll be seeing my list more frequently in hard copy I'll pick up the pace.
