daily journaling

While reading the blog The Pioneer Woman today there was a post about writing a daily journal.  I used to have a diary and would write on occasion however i was never good at keeping up with it on a daily or even weekly basis.  Sometimes i'd pick my book up to write and i would notice it had either been many months or even up to a year since i wrote anything down.  I have always enjoyed going back through my writings to see how i was feeling or what was going on which makes me wish i would write more often.

This year i want to write more.. and on The Pioneer Woman blog there was a post about 280daily.com
It's a journaling website but for you and you alone.  no sharing to FB no ability for other people to read your writings.  What i like the best about it is that the idea is to keep the writing short and sweet.  280 characters.
I can do that!

What is also nice is you can add a photo to your post.. so I give myself a second challenge.. Not only to write something every day about my day but to add a photo to each post.  That photo can be a random photo of my dog or some building i think looked neat.. but it has to be from that day.

So.. write every day about my day, post a pic daily, and keep it up.

What will help.. they send emails every day to remind you to write!  Cause this girl.. she will definitely need reminders..

Bonus.. in time through the site you have the option to purchase a book printed and delivered of your writings!  Now that is neat!  Something that you can share one day if you so choose.. 

ps.. the dictionary says that the word 'journaling'.. well isn't in fact a word.. but i'm using it anyway.
