My first
Blogging A to Z Challenge has been a most enjoyable Blogger’s Block Party! I
can’t think of another time when commitment has been so much fun; putting out
your best and checking out new and favorite blogs, making new friends while catching
up with old ones and being inspired, informed, engaged and entertained every
single day! Discovering how much easier having a theme makes the writing
process certainly added the Party to
my persistent Blogger’s Block! Thank you, one and all :-)
To anyone who's already visited and wondered where that desert rat got her manners: Pardon me, please, as I live and read and learn! In the last couple of days I've read so many wonderful, eloquently written reflection blogs; many of whom give kudos to the bloggers who kept them going while keeping at it themselves. If you're looking for me, I'm hiding behind the woodshed! While I regret not having the opportunity to check out all I wanted to, the few I couldn't have left a comment though I wanted to, and a even a couple that security issues prevented me from getting to, I understand there's still hope! Now, I don't mean to brag, but I've been told I'm pretty good at picking winners and here are a few of the ones I checked every day :-)

I never though of the A to Z as a Blogger’s Block Party. I like that. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, except it's a really big block! But you get that same feeling of being a part of something :-)
DeleteOh, and thank you for mentioning my blog! :D
DeleteMy pleasure!
DeleteCongrats on finishing the challenge, best wishes!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Blogoratti!
DeleteCongrats! I enjoyed your posts and thanks for the shout. It certainly is one big party.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nick! And wasn't it fun? Now if I can just attack the piles of paperwork that accumulated on my desk with the same diligence - ha! Looking forward to your posts!
DeleteDeidre, I enjoyed your A-Z posts. They were informative and I learned about all sorts of neat little critters.Kudos to you for soldiering on.
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks for sayin' so! I sure enjoyed it :-) Looking forward to reading more of your posts, Quanie. Talk about informative...and besides, you always manage to crack me up! Miss you.

Thank you, Melissa! It was probably the most fun I've had since I started blogging and certainly put me on track to finding my voice and channeling into something (hopefully) worth reading!
DeleteIs it just me, or is everything aligned too far to the left here? Yet, I still managed to read it all by highlighting with my mouse. I'm not being mean, I just know if my blog was presenting itself in odd ways to others, I'd want to know.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are right! The A to Z is very much like a big blog party! Full of fun, surprises, old friends and new. Like I didn't realize you had this blog, also! Hat's off to you my friend for managing more than one blog through the whirlwind that is the challenge!!

Okay, so I pushed publish on my comment and suddenly everything lined up!! Maybe it was the bad weather here and my satellite, not your blog. My apologies.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I'll blame my Hughes Net again! The way the page displayed before, I thought the author was someone else. My humble apologies once again!
ReplyDeleteI'm just gonna shut up now and follow you. ;)
Ha! No worries, Barbara! Can't tell you how many times I've shot myself in the foot trying to navigate through unfamiliar territory - let alone when technological gremlins come out to play. :-)
DeleteHello there.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on completing your first AtoZ challenge! Just meandering through today from the Road Trip.
