NaBloPoMo

November is the “official” Na’Mo month. NaNoWriMo, for example, stands for National Novel Writing Month. The challenge is to write a novel in 30 days, beginning on November 1st.  There are similar challenges for poetry, drawing, nonfiction writing, and I don’t know what else. Oh, wait! I do know what else… NaBloPoMo!

National Blog Posting Month is a challenge to publish a blog post every day of November. And yes, I’m going to go where – well, where a whole lot of bloggers have bravely gone before. I’m taking the challenge.

Posting daily is easy, really. I could do a daily series on my cat’s antics, but that would just look like the photo below multiplied by thirty.

antics

Posting something of quality, though, is a whole ‘nother matter. And a very subjective one at that.

I’ll try to be diligent in keeping the month’s posts reader-worthy. If I happen to toss in a few (or more) clunkers, please don’t judge (too harshly). And I promise I won’t post thirty photos of my cat or dog for NaBloPoMo.
(NaBloPoMo sounds like something a dentist would hear after shooting a patient’s mouth full of Novocain, doesn’t it? Now my teeth hurt.)

Finding Happy

The theme for this week’s Daily Post photo challenge is “happy place,” and the question is “where do you go to get your groove back?”

I don’t so much have a “happy place,” as I do a “contentment place.” When life gets a bit too chaotic, here are three of my “retreats”:

Walks with my buddy.

Getting lost in creativity.

I actually have many happy places. In fact, I’m in one right now. I call it “home.”
