ACOT Message Board

How the challenge works: You can jump in or out at any time. Feel free to use whatever format you like. Digi or paper, small or large whatever you're comfortable with. I will provide you with a prompt, but you can write about whatever you wish. If you have an idea for a prompt you'd like to see please let me know. Also, if your journaling is not easily visible, please add it to your post so we can all read your story.

Today's Prompt: Brain Age Do you feel your chronological age? If not, why don't you?



My Example


NOT my best writing by any means. I wasn't 'feeling it' yesterday.

I have a little one next to me here on the table too now to jot stuff down! I was doing some journaling in my head on the ride home from my mom's last weekend and well ya know, got involved in other stuff when we got home, never wrote it down and now it's gone. I don't even remember the stupid subject.

And it was good stuff too!

This is a good one Tracy. I'll be gone most of the day, but I'll get on this as soon as I get home tonight.

Loving these challenges... I get to play with my digital scrappy stuff.

Stacy this is so awesome that you have the energy to do marathons! Great layout.

All of you did wonderful journaling ladies. I really enjoyed reading your perspective on age and how you feel. I just wish more peeps would participate in the journaling threads. To me they are very relaxing to work on and I enjoy writing. Here is mine. Looks like I'm the oldest of the group. LOL I just noticed that I have a small typo in the journaling, but I'm not going to correct it because I'm old and I don't have to if I don't want to. LOL

I can't read any of the journaling (I am posting from me cell phone and the screen is too small to read the smaller stuff) but i love the colors! I have an ongoing conversation with a friend about how little the number really means. Have lots of thoughts on this one and can't wait to get started! Might have to go back to 12x12 for this one! Lol

These are all great ladies!! I left everyone some love. I too am really enjoying reading everyone's stories.

This was so beautiful, it seriously brought tears to my eyes! And I truly believe that being with younger people keeps us younger. Act old, get old I always say! Great job!!!!

Very cute layout Grace!!

That's my M.O.!! I always work in my word processor first because I constantly change things as I'm writing.
