I may, may have overcommitted myself for the month of April!
How have I done this? Let me count the ways!
First off, I want to participate in Jay’s Agatha Christie Readathon. I have the books on order and am ready to jump on board! We will be reading one novel each week and then posting a review. I think there is still time to join us 😃📚!.
Secondly, I will be continuing with Sally’s Baking Addiction Challenge, as I have been for the last 13 months. Our April challenge is croissants! 🥐 I have discussed the intense process for making laminated dough in the past, so you know this is a tough undertaking for me. This will be posted near the end of the month, as I am not going to be working with pounds of cold butter in my hot, Tucson kitchen!
And finally, I signed up to participate in the A to Z Blogging Challenge. If you are not familiar this is a challenge to post, each day, excluding Sundays, for the month of April. I don’t know if I can pull this off as I have never blogged that much😬. Additionally, I have to spend three days driving my car from Tucson to Redmond. Those are some long days and I hope I can accommodate the blog schedule. If you have already participated in this before, please feel free to give me any tips or advice! Please, Please😊💕
My theme will be Health and Fitness, but you probably saw that one coming! 🏋🏻♀️💪🏻🥊🧘🏻♀️🧗♀️
There are a couple reasons why I wanted to do this challenge. I have never really pushed myself to blog on a daily schedule. So, I want to try that out. Also, one of my favorite authors, Sue Grafton, passed this year. She is famous for her Alphabet mystery series, A is for Alibi, B is for Burglar….It just felt right this year.
So, come April 1st (the only Sunday blog post) I will be launching head first into the abyss, God help us all and wish me luck 🍀😫
You do sound booked for April! For the #AtoZChallenge, you can keep your posts short. Once you figure out what your 26 words will be, it’s much easier to get in a groove. I don’t know about WordPress, but on Squarespace, I can duplicate posts, so I create a template to help cut down on the work. Looking forward to reading about your various April activities and adventures!

Yes, that would be the first step. Eating and drinking come in handy, too. And sleep!!

Best of luck from me to you. Posting every day isn’t easy, unless you post shorter content.

That may be something I have to force myself to do 💕

You go girl!! You have made some awesome and BIG commitments for April! I haven’t ever participated in the A to Z challenge. I’ve seen some other bloggers who have participated. Maybe I’ll keep that in mind in the future. Spring was a slower posting time for me last year and I think it may be this year as well. I want to savor my son’s Senior year. I’m looking forward to following your progress. 🙂
