Long Time Blogger, First Time NaBloPoMo-er

Yes, I am NaBloPoMo-ing it (a.k.a. National Blog Posting Month) and I’m a leeeee-tull nervous about it.

In ALL my years of blogging, I have never NaBloPoMo-ed.

[blushing]

I know, I know, blogging every day (especially, on the weekends) is a HUGE commitment (for me, anyways) as of January, I’ll have 3 teenagers in the house and, well, my brain sure could use a good dump-ing.

You’re welcome!

Also, if Kendra, Melisa and Diana are NaBloPoMo-ing, as well (cliff, meet lemming) then it MUST be cool, right?!?

Aaaaaanyway, the cool thing about NaBloPoMo-ing is that there are daily prompts to help get my blogging juices going.  Today’s prompt:

Can you listen to music and write?  What song did you hear today?

Michael Buble Christmas Album
Why, yes, as a matter of fact, I’m listening to Michael Buble’s new Christmas album on Spotify, right now!

[ducks to avoid flying desk calendars]

What?  Too early?  Okay, fiiiiiiiine.   Still, here’s a studio clip of Michael (my husband insists on referring to him as Michael Bubble) featuring one of my favorite Christmas ballads:

His voice has a vintage sound and, okay, THE BOY IS ADORABLE AS ALL GET OUT, yes? 

[flutter, flutter, pang, pang]

Aaaaanyway, this particular melody makes me feel all warm and fuzzy and, well, I just love that, you know?

Feel free to check out what I’ve NaBloPoMo-ed, thus far (PHEW!) and let me know how I’m doing (I mean, 30 posts, in 30 days, really?!?) when you have time, of course!

    Oh I’m so glad you’re participating! I’m doing it too – but I’m doing a “30 Days of Thankful” since I didn’t realize there were actual prompts out there to help and I needed something easy to keep me going.
