may...be

Well, here I go again.  I tried the NaBloPoMo prompt for March, and failed.  Life got in the way, and all of us that write blogs, and all of us that read blogs (I belong to both groups) know that life always comes first.

You have to deal.  No getting around it.

It's been a pretty oddball couple of months since I started that last prompt.

Let's see how this month goes.  I have new job responsibilities at work that are using all my brain cells up.  I still have half a business in California that I have obligations to (well really it is more like a third since my sister Vicky is the legs and heart of it).  I have grandkids who are my life and breath, and often almost succeed in robbing me of both during a busy weekend.  I have my painting, and photography to focus on, in all my spare time. 

I have a life.  Just like all of you do.  And even if I don't post every day this month using the "maybe" prompt, life will go on.  It will be interesting to see where it leads me this month. 

Maybe I just might succeed.

  3. Daily posts are a challenge. I somehow manage but don't have a lot that competes for my time - except for year-end grading right now. I hope you can do it; you always have something of interest to share.

  7. Having a little tiny glimpse into how busy your life must be I can only applaud your intentions! In fact, I think you've inspired me to take up the challenge again next month. . .I've missed the start of this one. Will look forward to reading every day posts! Or most day posts!

  8. Hearing you loud and clear. I decided not to post this week to give myself a break from the mental exhaustion of working full time, trying to blog each day, as well as everything else that comes with that. It's a time consuming passion of ours and every now and then we need to give ourselves a break. Take your time, and the followers that love you will always be hear : )

  10. @Janine: I hear you too, and just read your post...sometimes we think we have nothing to say Janine, then something happens to fire us up...I think my comment was longer than your post because that is a subject I feel passionate about too...
    Now let's hope I can think of something worthwhile to say before tonight or I will have failed my prompt on day 3... :D

  11. I hear you! I tried my own "photo a day" challenge in April and managed to keep up for about 1/2 the month. Life happens. Let it.
