Late last week, I heard about the A to Z challenge for the month of April. It's where bloggers blog EVERY day except Sundays, working their way through the alphabet. Morgan, for one, is doing it...
And I thought, "Oh, that sounds fun and worthwhile!" Then I thought of Marcy doing/attempting her picture-a-day for a year and decided I'd combine the two into my own little blog activity: The A to Z Picture-a-Day for April!
Let's pause for a moment and note that today is April 4th, and this is my second post for the month. I'm behind already. I suppose I could just say, "APRIL FOOLS!"
First of all, I just heard of the A to Z, and I didn't read the instructions clearly - I thought we get whole weekends off. So, WHATEVER! I already failed.
But maybe I'll still play along, just might not make the whole alphabet.
Today, we got buried by a sloppy snowstorm. Schools were shut down as were many other services. I was scheduled to tutor today, but the library was closed. Plus the student's a mom, and her elementary school kid was home. Magnum even stayed and worked from home.
So I thought this would be a good day for blogging. It was. But it was also a good day to get caught up on planning stuff for work and finishing up some biz for P.E.O. By the time I'd finished those things, I was tired of my computer, so for fun, I shoveled snow and cleaned a bathroom.
In short, I'm already failing at the A to Z Picture-a-Day for April challenge. I did manage a photo for today.
It's Meego and the cat raucously celebrating the snow day.

It looks like Meego has this snow day stuff figured out.
The A to Z challenge would be a bit much for me, but I have faith you could come up with a picture every day.
I like his kind of celebration! This weather has been nuts. We've been getting a ton of rain. I would guess we would getting it from the west but it looks like it's coming from the south instead.
I'm trying to think of my E word now and totally failing. I guess I have all day to conjure up something....
Good thing a picture's worth a thousand words. Opportunity for lazy blogging.
It's amazing how one good snow storm can bring everything to a halt. Spring is typically a moody weather time for us. Happy E-day!
Now that's a snow day celebration! Well played.
I can hardly handle a blog a month, let alone one a day. But I'm happy you can! It's always fun to come here. :)
As long as you keep on your "blog a month" challenge! I'll take what I can get :)
Blog post a day, picture a day - tomatoe, tomato - let's call the whole thing just hard. Haha. No, really, I admire the bloggers like you who commit to that - even just to try it. I just don't have the sticktoittiveness, I guess. Anyhoo, I can't think of a better way to spend a snow day then in bed with the doggies!
I think Meego and the cat have the right idea. Somewhere, there's a perfect balance between setting goals and making a hobby a chore. Here's to hoping you find that spot for you.
