Monthly challenge

Day 28,

I realize that since the beginning of the new year I've given myself a new challenge every month. Granted its only february and that's just 2 months I think I'll keep up the challenge. January I started blogging every day. I've kept it up so far without missing a day. This month I'm on the hypoallergenic diet and soon will be ending my suffering. What should my challenge be next month? I don't have a lot of time to work with so it has to be simple and doable.

Blogging every day has been quite a challenge. I don't think I'll last a whole year. I think every day is more than an average reader cares to read anyways. I do like finding subjects to write quick blurbs about, but I no longer write long research stories. So I think I'll eventually cut back.

Hypoallergenic diet has been a nightmare, but a good learning experience. I've learned a lot about my body and the role food plays in my life. I do love buying and eating fruits and veggies. It makes me feel like a responsible adult. I will definitely take away life long lessons from this 29 day diet hell.

So what challenge will March hold. I'm already doing lent. Maybe I'll just be more committed to my lent. I need a daily challenge though. One that will be obvious and keep me honest. It has to be daily or I won't stick with it.

Due to the theme of lent I'll commit to read one Bible passage a day. My boyfriend's grandpa did say he'd pay me $150 bucks to read it in its entirety. A chapter a day won't take to long. I'll start... in the beginning, even though the Old Testament can be quite frightening. I'll probably have many questions for God after each reading. Hopefully He'll provide the answers. Nonetheless, I'll have a richer spiritual life or just richer.
