Alphabet Soup

Today’s unofficial letter is r for rest. It’s Sunday, the day of rest, except I usually offer a Song Lyric Sunday post after having posted DSF Weekly Rewind on Saturday. However, since I’m knee-deep… or letter G-deep… into the Blogging A to Z Challenge at this point, I’m taking today off. But you’re posting this! I know, but these kinds of post take no thought whatsoever. Ahhhhhh.

In case you’ve missed this past week, check out my A through G posts here.

Last weekend, I got all the way to N written before my brain decided it was done. Ya know, I like my theme, Musical Memoir, but the process would be much faster if I didn’t stop to listen to every song I choose and then fall down a YouTube wormhole for HOURS watching footage I haven’t seen in years, etc. Le sigh. Mental note for next year.

Next weekend, I’ll finish up the posts O through Z and schedule those. I like having things written ahead of time. It gives me more time to visit peeps, which is fun. Also fun, this challenge has awakened Muse quite a bit. She and I have had several discussions about what we will be writing in the coming weeks. Maybe she was just being a snow miser, hiding (under a blanket?) because it’s still so damn cold, but I’m happy that this mini memoir experience has made her want to write more.

Speaking of snow, I think I’ll do a lil’ website maintenance today (again, not much thought involved), starting with changing my snowy header photo. Maybe that’s the reason winter is lingering — it likes my photo and thinks that means I want it to stay. For everyone else’s sake, and ok even my own, I’ll change it to something more spring-like. Mittens in April is just wrong, people.

To non-thinking! And to resting! And to spring! And to finishing the Blogging A to Z Challenge strong, and then no longer thinking alphabetically for a while.
