Scary Stuff (2011 - Present)

When I started my blog "Do One Thing Every Day That Scares You" in 2011, I made the list shown below of "scary" things that I wanted to tackle. I didn't tackle all of them in 2011, but have checked back on the list frequently and have continued to update it as I tackle more things!  


When I started my blog, I made a list of scary things that I could tackle. Some things have been already marked off and blogged about, some blog posts were "spur of the moment" and not included on this list, while others are still waiting.  Some things, I've "missed the boat on" due to procrastination, work restraints, or just not knowing about them in time to participate, so I've added those things to my 2012 list.
