November 30, 2006
It’s the last day of November and I managed to post every day of the month. Most of the posts even seemed quite cheery.
In the end I quite enjoyed it, most days anyway. I feel like it has got me back into the swing of it all again which I really needed to do after Lily’s arrival and my blogging hit an all time low (four posts in two months!?). It’s also got me thinking about my craft pursuits again, and taking more photos and thinking about writing a book – so that’s all a wonderful bi-product of a seemingly daunting task.
And what about December? I would love to keep up this pace but school holidays descend upon us as does Christmas madness and in truth it would be lovely to have some evenings where there is absolutely nothing that needs doing after 8pm except cleaning my teeth so I am not going to set myself any crazy tasks.
But there you go. Whoo-hoo! And now I must away because there is an advent calendar which needs making.
Congrats on posting every day! I’ve enjoyed reading all of them!
oh my god. thank you so much for reminding me. I’ve got to put the FB’s advent calendar together tonight.
Congratulations, Claire! It’s been great to have your cheery voice back in the blogosphere again!
I love reading your posts and hope that you keep up with the regular posting altho having 4 girls myself I know how mad it can get. Enjoy preparing for Xmas!
Long-time lurker and admirer… just wanting to say congratulations on your very successful NaBloPoMo! Isn’t it amazing how writing every day reconnects you to what you’re all about? It really gets the juices flowing. Cheers!
Congratulations!The posts have been great! I have enjoyed everyday, reading along about you, your family and of course your crafty ideas.
Thanks!
Congratulations! You’ve done a cracker job posting everyday. I tried to do the same, and for the same reason as you (a newish baby who takes up all your time), but didn’t quite do as well as you.Very glad it helped you get your blogging mojo back.
Well done. Enjoyed reading your posts.Cheers, F.
Way to go! You did it!
Claire,thanks so much for a lovely month. It’s selfish but I really missed you when you were not posting so often.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
I just created my very first advent calendar and my aim is only to put one lolly in for each of my children on the 24th. Today it was a small trinket toy and a 20c coin from their dad with a litte letter. Tomorrow it is beading a necklace and Sunday is face painting.
I’m having so much fun!
Ooo! A book! That would be lovely!
I really enjoyed your comeback this month. You’ve been missed.
Thanks so much for the advent calendar idea. We are having such fun doing our version together. I’m taking photos and putting them up on my blog. Today was Hot Chocolate with the Works, I have a chocolate headache!
