Thank you! I had a similar goal, although I said 50 posts in a year (2 weeks off, woohoo!) I was pretty close to keeping that goal, and then we had a baby at the end of April, and my pace went right in the toilet. At this point, I have to satisfy myself with writing only whenever I'm inspired enough to get up at 5AM before she wakes up.

But, she laughed for the first time on Friday, so I'm feeling pretty OK about the trade :)

This post was good to read, though. A good reminder that as long as we're doing enough that our overall fuzzy goals are being met, we can adjust our more strict, concrete goals to tailor our current situation. Thanks!
