Who journals or write in their diaries everyday?

For those of you who do ... when do you write? what do you write? how many pages do you write? When do you know when to stop. For me, I write every morning. When I journal, I write about anything that comes to mind, many call this freehand writing, I call it "purging my brain of clutter" ... it's like clicking on the "empty recycle bin" on my computer. So anything that comes to mind. Sometimes I write about what I have to do in the day if I am feeling stressed about how much I have to do. When I am focused on a project, I write freely about what I think about the project, throw in ideas that could help me with getting a project organized. When I'm moody, I write about what I feel, who and what is making me feel that way and how I will deal with those feelings. I aim to write 3 pages no matter what.... sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. To stop, I either go to 3 pages or if my writing time exceeds 1/2 hour I end there.
