Countdown to 3,000 Posts

Today marks 190 days left of 2021. If I blog everyday until the end of this year, I could accomplish a goal of 3,000 posts in 10 years, with six days built in to play with (read: take off). This is a good challenge for me. In the first year I started it, 2012, I never missed a day. Yep, I blogged 365 days in a row. I sweated it out on several days once the clock hit 11:30pm, then 11:45pm and a frantic last 15 minutes to get out the post before I turned into a pumpkin at midnight. 

If The Little Engine That Could book's signature phrase is: "I think I can," I can too. Hey, I've proven once before that I can do it. Easy, right?

Well, I've swung the gauntlet down on myself. There are no rewards except the challenge I put forth, and hopefully, accomplishing the goal this coming New Year's Eve. It will be a day to celebrate for sure. Today's post is my 2,819th. 

You can bet that the best I can do it try each day. I promise you (and myself) I will.
