100 Day Streak

I haven’t had much time for blogging lately after my pre-scheduled posts all posted themselves while we were out of town, but I have been faithfully keeping up with writing my 750 words every day!

When I wrote about it way back in January, I thought it sounded like a fun idea. I grew to enjoy it, but I didn’t know how long it would last. I had signed up for the monthly challenge, which I am sad to say I did not complete that month (February) – I completely forgot about it one day, and I looked at the clock and it was already midnight. Since then I have set my phone alarm to go off every evening at 11:03 to remind me to write if I haven’t already. It seems to be working – all the other monthly challenges I have since signed up for, I have been successful at completing!

Anyway, tonight I made it to a 100 day streak! I earned my phoenix badge! (The badges are surprisingly really motivational, however corny that may sound.) And that turquoise horse is for completing the monthly challenges. Don't you love the way it tracks how many words per minute are written?!

Some days I feel like I have nothing to say; other days there are so many thoughts swirling around in me that I don’t know where to begin. But writing that many words in one sitting always forces me to delve a little deeper into my subconscious and actually write about something.
