The 100 Day Project

As I was socially sharing my post yesterday I remembered that a little thing called The 100 Day Project was happening, as well as the UBC.

The 100 Day Project starts on Jan. 31 and goes on for 100 days.  I betcha figured that one out on your own 'cause you're smart like me.

Anyway, you are supposed to pick a creative endeavor to undertake for these 100 days.  

There are things I like to do, and considered.  I could make an ATC every day.  Or a tiny canvas.  Or some found poetry.  Or I could work on a cross stitch project every day and share my progress.

I had turned down each of those ideas for the same reason.  TIME.

See, I leave my house at noon:thirty every day, and I don't get home until 10pm every day.  There are only 2 days a week I have time to pull out my craft supplies (and I usually spend them running errands instead.)

Then I thought, BLOGGING is a CREATIVE act, right?  I have to not only think about words, but I have to arrange them in an order that is not only cohesive, but also pleasing and entertaining.  I also have to find a nice picture to share with each entry, because people like pictures better than words.

Yep, all kinds of creativity there. 

And, since I drop out of the UBC less than a week in every time it rolls around, I thought it makes perfect sense to combine my UBC with The 100 Days Challenge.  That way I can drop out of two things at once, and save some time an energy.

But not really.  If I can make it to 28 days of blogging I should be in a good groove.  And then if it gets dull I can switch off between here and my fiction site
