ABC Blogging in April--Year Three

 Nope! Contrary to the wildest imaginations out there, I have not, in fact, been abducted by aliens, unless you count the hormone-saturated pre-adults that I have been trying to force-feed an education into for the last seven months. I have missed blogging. In truth, each Sunday I tell myself I will pry my "second face" from the sofa, put down the clicker, and stop watching Pitch Perfect for the millionth time so I can get to my computer and blog about the epiphany I am having at that moment. Take a look to see how many times I listened to my inner voice. I ignore her as much as my Darling Daughter ignores me asking her to empty the dishwasher.

RECAP SINCE AUGUST: Found out at the last possible minute I would be returning to teaching (reading at the high school level); Hubby Dearest traveled to NYC A-FREAKING-LOT for his job, which was tough when he broke his ankle playing rec-league hockey in October; Darling Daughter started and finished her second season in youth hockey and is now ready to get her first job and attend driving school; Mama and Daddy bought a camper "for the grandkids" (wink wink); Dr. Meanie bragged on me for getting to the gym with "some" regularity and for not having bronchitis in the past 14 months; Took the family to LA in August and NYC in March; found out two weeks ago that I am not being laid off but am being re-assigned to another campus for next year (last one in, first one out). I am sure there is a ton more but I can hear "the Rif off" about to start.

So here's the skinny...the challenge that got me into blogging is going to bring me back to my favorite past time...writing! A to Z Blogging Challenge. Come join the fun. Sign up on the website (follow) the link from the picture above. Then blog and post each day in April. You skip the Sundays (or use them to play catch up). The only rule is that you blog according to the letter of the alphabet for that day...April 1 is A, April 2 is B, you get the rest I hope. I have a week to get my writing list in some sort of order. It's going to take planning to stay on target  this year. Can't wait to read what everyone is thinking!
