One year ago today...

One year ago today, I launched my personal joy dare.  (See http://onethousandgifts.com).  It was an interesting day as it was a much anticipated day off of work.  However, a neighboring community was decimated by tornadoes that day.  We had Jim Cantore in our city which we all know means bad news on the weather horizon.  I committed to count to 1000 in a year on that day, and well, I failed.  As of this morning, I have 685 things listed in my joy journal.  I do continue to count as I try to make it to at least 1000.
