  1. Nice goals. Writing a 100 posts is a great goal. It requires focus and would be challenging. I was almost there last year but I felt like I posted constantly. Thanks for sharing!

    1. Thank you. And we agree that 100 posts can be challenging. In fact, it was a goal we had last year and did not accomplish. So this year, we've decided to repeat the goal and sort of taking it on as a personal challenge to overcome and accomplish this year. Wish us luck!

      Thank you for visiting. Best wishes! AFFJ
