I saw this on another blog (whatkellysaid) and thought it would be really really fun to do. I am a total list maker... ahem, addict. It's something about the way my brain works... I need to have goals to finish or I will spend a whole hour or day doing nothing at all. I tried something like this before but kinda fell out of it after a few months. With Project 52, any task that is not completed my the end of the year you donate $5 to your favorite charity. Awesome! I'm going to say it right now that since my Aunt and one of my best friends Mom's are fighting with Breast Cancer right now... that is where my $ will be going. :) (unless I finish them all which in that case I will donate to celebrate!)

I love this idea! I'm sure I could come up with 52 things I really need to do.
I wish I could remember where I read about an incentive based on opposite giving -- essentially giving money to a charity or cause you're *against* so it would be awful to have to do that if you didn't achieve your goal.
Anyway, good luck with your goals! I can't help with anything churchy, but my dentist is in the town next to mine right across the border from your town. Let me know if you'd like the details.
