nablopomo

NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month) was started in November 2006 by Eden Kennedy of Fussy. Formed as an offshoot of NaNoWriMo, (National Novel Writing Month), it is largely responsible for overflowing feed readers in November. The challenge is stated simply as  Post every day for the month of November. That's all you have to do.

In 2007, Eden moved the program to a Ning Network. Numerous bloggers and companies donate prizes for the end of the month random prize drawings for those who complete the challenge. In March of 2008, the project went to a monthly format, with a topic sent out at the beginning of each month.

  My sweet Emma, It seems impossible to me that you are five years old today. My baby, my sweet peanut Emma-nem is FIVE. I swear it was just yesterday when you were this small: You were our sweet surprise - your daddy and I knew we wanted to add to our family but when I found out you were on the way it was ...

• Question of the Day

  
  Jill of All Trades — Authority: 110
  The question of the day at NaBloPoMo is "If you miss the first few minutes of a movie, do you still want to watch the rest of it?" Well, of course I watch the rest of it.  For one thing if you pay good money, which is a lot now-a-days, Im not going to waste it by walking out of the movie, no way.  Besides you could ...

  Wild Rumpusing — Authority: 111
  I was doing so well, keeping up with all the classes and reading, but I am also hosting an out of town visitor at work and with the weather issues, I just got behind today.  I felt like it was all okay if I was reading it all, but I didnt even read anything today - no time. So, this weekend is going to be a weekend ...

• Snow...

  
  Wild Rumpusing — Authority: 111
  I wish I could just enjoy the snow, but I cant.  As an adult and as a person in charge of an office, it wreaks havoc on everything. I hate driving in it.  Hopefully, it will change to rain in the morning.  I didnt even take any pictures of it...

• Procrastination, Thy Name is Jean

  
  Wild Rumpusing — Authority: 111
  I really had plans to do a lot more and I ended up doing absolutely nothing useful. I didn’t work on my classes (although I DID read the new material that was released for them and watched a video for my February Lettering class), my journal, my blog, nothing. I checked Facebook, I played games, I watched some bad ...

  Did you read over the weekend about  Palmer Advertising  in San Francisco, and the ad they put on Craigslist? No? Apparently they are looking for a business development person in the Stockton, California area and the ad, along with job description and required experience, listed this line:  "The successful ...

  Wild Rumpusing — Authority: 111
  I spent the last couple of days working in my Soul Book. I took a class from the Brave Girls Club and Im finally able to work on some of the art parts.  This is a little different than my art journals, but it uses some of the same techniques if I want to do it that way.  Im still figuring out some of what I want ...

  The view from my fishbowl — Authority: 108
  Sunday night used to be a night of boring television ... a night reserved for some serious channel surfing. But lately, its become my favorite night of TV. First and foremost, there is " Once Upon a Time " - I love this show (of course, right?). Its all my favorite fairy tales spun with a dash of "LOST" (OK, a big ...

• Change is Hard, Not Impossible

  
  Wild Rumpusing — Authority: 111
  A lot of people get impatient with the pace of change. - James Levine I always have these imaginings that when I decide to do something or change something, it happens quickly and smoothly.  Im usually (almost always) wrong. This time is no exception, but Im not feeling down about it. Just trying to figure it ...

• SnOMG! (Alternative title: Oh my gosh, its going to snow. In Ohio. In January)

  
  The view from my fishbowl — Authority: 108
  So apparently its going to SNOW . This should not be "big" news, considering we live in OHIO. And it is January. But given that it really hasnt snowed all winter - and the temps have been relatively steady in the mid-40s, I guess the fact that OH MY GOODNESS A FEW INCHES OF SNOW IS ON THE WAY is enough to make ...

• One more birthday post

  
  The view from my fishbowl — Authority: 108
  Nothing like a little surprise to make a birthday extra special! Olivia picked Olive Garden for her birthday dinner - she loves the breadsticks and alfredo dipping sauce (who doesnt?). Kevin surprised her with a "happy birthday" balloon and suddenly the manager was at our table, chatting with Olivia. He promised that ...
