It Takes a Long Time to Grow Old Friends

SOLC 1
I LOVED being a part of the SOLC last year. It was an exhilarating experience, feeling the initial challenge of what to write and then the satisfaction of having completed a slice. At the end of the challenge, I was fortunate to win a key chain that says, "Write. It's Good For You." I have carried it with my keys all year with the pride of holding an Oscar. I had great resolve to continue this writing challenge all year. Alas, I must confess, despite this motivational fob, I didn't continue with my daily writing.(I did however think about it a lot!)

As this year's challenge approached, I argued with myself about jumping in again vs not adding one more item to my to do list. Since I am home for a week or so recuperating from some minor surgery, I had time this morning to read the posts already in a long list this morning. It was like reacquainting with old "friends"! Though I only know one slicer personally, I felt like I had come to a reunion. It brought back fond memories of the windows these friends had opened on their lives.

I have to join in. I don't want to be left out! So here's to a month of sharing, of stretching, of reacquainting with last year's friends and greeting the opportunity to meet new friends. Thanks for inviting me!
