Monday Dares

Every Monday, I'm picking from the List of Things to Do, Places to Go, Possible Acts that Help and Possible Fun to Have. It's a list I made before The Project started, and I'm still adding to it. If you have suggestions, please, feel free to throw them my way. I'm calling the list my Monday Dares, as I get overwhelmed just looking at the words "challenge" or "goal."

P.S. This is not a complete archive of all posts. Sometimes, I blog on other days besides Monday. Just sometimes. Those are usually the days I ingest a lot of sugar or drugs. Just kidding. Probably. To see the complete list of posts, please refer to the Archive section in the sidebar.
