My apologies, I had intended to be better about posting, right up until we got sick. Not “a bit under the weather” sick. Not quite on par with the first round of Covid where we tried for the fever temp survival world record either, but still, we slept through much of the last few weeks. Better now, if still revisiting what I recall as that hangover long Covid thing I remember from last time, and perhaps with one or two fewer spoons at my disposal (do people still count spoons?)
Hiccup: I wrote this for Day 1 of the 100 Day Project (though admittedly I plan to follow my own path) but am only actually posting now, on Day 3. I’m still calling it a go, for writing and intent and actually getting this set up and posted, but case, point, and unneeded explanations — this embodies the why of the challenge thing.
Back to original post: I will (aim to) do a few things that would fit into the #100dayproject (#weaveeveryday / #draweveryday / #tapestrydiary — yes, you three, I’m looking at you…). And sometimes, often, much of the time, these are a challenge; they certainly will all show up regularly as part of the 100 day thing. But the behavior I’d really like to make a reliable part of my routine, the one that I find the most challenging to keep up with, is just this. I intend to post regularly, but when there is any sort of a hiccup in my systems, posting is the first thing to fall aside.
So… If we’re gonna do this, let’s make some plans and rules.
- Blog post weekly: I had planned to post on Thursdays but for various and varying tidbits, that seems to be a rather rushed day these parts. Today is Wednesday and here I am posting, but I think I am going to run with Monday is Blogday instead as of next Monday* (note to self, learn how to link footnotes in Blogger…);
- IG/FB post daily — just a short check in and perhaps just for as long as we’re running with the project. Link to blog on Blogday;
- Start putting a blog roll together: so I can share, of course, but also so I can go back to checking the places I like to visit regularly myself;
- Remember to photo, photo, photo, draw: post in my other hashtag “everydays” and write regularly so the Blogday’s post is ready to schedule for Monday.
Are you 100 day-ing as well? It’s definitely easier to be accountable in numbers with others, so I figure I’ll be wandering around the hashtag to see what everyone else is up to. Let’s do the thing!

The Gusset on Tuesdays, and the temptation of Twosday Tooday monikers aside, I will choose to follow Sarah’s Tuesday writings with my own on Mondays going forward. Moonday it is!
