30 Days...

 

Today promises to be a hot one, with the rest of the week looking rather warm as well. So I am putting off any outdoor chores and focusing on stuff that allows me to be nearer the a/c today. Yes I am a wimp!.

I got to thinking earlier today, how quiet it has been on Multiply. A few scattered posts on some days. No blogs or guestbook visits on others. It's a busy time of the year, and people's interests lie otherwise, whether outdoors or just on other websites. I miss seeing everyone here. And I am just as guilty of being lax in my blogging ways.

So today I am challenging myself. How hard could it be to blog for 30 days straight I told myself. Not that hard was my inner reply. Though I did have a small gnawing doubt that it might be harder than I thought. Even though I can ramble on and on, to come up with something different every day to blog about for 30 days would require a little more mental effort than I might think. I might have bitten off more than I can chew.

But I am going to try it, this self imposed 30 day challenge. Thirty days of blogs, they might be short blogs, just a pic blogs, but they will be some sort of blogs. I see it is a way to kick start myself back into blogging and getting off my lazy mental keester. I may bore you all, and  in no way do I expect you to comment or even read everything I post (but you can if you want).

So I am counting this as day 1 of the challenge with this blog. Maybe not the most interesting blog, but it's a start. Care to join me in the 30 day challenge?

  5. What a great challenge! Just when I was thinking that I was too busy to 'Multiply'. Hmmm?

    Tell you what, I will start with a 15 day commitment and maybe as it rolls along I can do the 30, K?

  6. Something happened in my brain..I just clean forget to log in here these days?? And nothing exciting happens except a few social evenings..its too hot to take pictures of all brown things..so I am ''eventless'' and boring these days. Making serious plans to travel up north by Nov..which is so far away yet..to meet up with mrs R and then remain there for a month. There is talk of my daughter taking me to Turkey in Oct..but its still talk...her whole family is going, not my idea of travelling..with a bunch of excited highly strung tourists.So will look forward to your 30 blogs..may throw in a few if something comes to my mind..

  9. Ok...I am taking up the challenge and counting today as my day one. I posted a story. I figure I am trying to be a writer maybe this will help me get my writing up to par.
    I left mine open for everyone so you can read it.
    This should be fun.

  10. Oh MAN . . . if I have your PERMISSION, can it really count as lurking/stalking? Don't I have to be sneaky and unwelcome?!??

    LOL . . . this is a GREAT challenge, and I am really excited about it . . .

    Now I am off to sneak over to sunny's page and trespass to read HER story!

    This is more fun ALREADY!!! =o)

  12. Well...sneaky does help...and I can take my permission back if it makes you feel lurky-like and more unwelcome....So NO, no you cannot have my permission. No way, no how, nope....(arms crossed, shaking head)...

    Feel better? ;))

  14. Yw! You couldn't tell but I tried to look all squinty eyed, aghast, and schoolmarmy-like....evidently it succeeded! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  15. LOL . . . yeah, it was those squinty, scary eyes that sealed the deal for me . . . I felt VERY lurky and unwelcome! I could SO picture you with a big pitt bull straining at its chain AND a shotgun coming next . . . ;o)

  16. I am not allowed any guns....I know this water gun probably had you fooled, but I only use it to squirt the cat when she jumps on the table, to squirt Oz in the back when he isn't looking, and to spritz myself when I get overheated...

    ReplyDelete
  17. I have a large bucket here, I'll be HAPPY to help out when you get overheated! LOL ;-o
