OK, so it just occurred to me that we are halfway through November, and that means halfway through nablopomo as well. And bonus … I just realized there’s only 30 days!
I’ve posted every day for 15 days, and that’s a record for me … hope it’s not sounding like a broken record around here …
Thirty days hath September,
April, June, and November.
All the rest have 31,
Except for February all alone,
It has 28 each year,’
but 29 each leap year.
Thirty days hath September,
April, June, and November
All the rest have 31,
Except for February.
Thirty days hath September,
April, June and November
All the rest have thirty-one
But February’s a different one

Please don’t get me wrong, I am not wishing away my time. On the contrary. I want to hold on to November and all the beauty it offers.
I’m actually feeling pretty energized by this exercise, and so far there has been only one day where I truly struggled.
Ideas are spinning around in my head all the time and this has given me permission to release them … even if they’re not perfect, so
- I have a recipe I’ve been meaning to publish but I keep putting it on the back burner (snort).
- I have an update on my “Blogging Bits and Bytes”.
- And, I have this fear that if I miss a day I might have to apologize … that’s enough to keep me awake at night ;)
Day 16 #nablopomo

Congratulations Barb on marking the halfway point. I was celebrating that realization myself just this morning after hitting the “publish” button.
Boy what an appreciation I have now more than ever of all that you do. You are truly amazing!! .
Barb says
Thank you Bev!

You’re doing really well with the Nano poblano challenge. I’m finding it quite easy and natural. Your post today made me remember the counting of months on the knuckles trick, which my Czech grandfather taught me when I was a child, and I must confess it’s far easier than this rhyme my British grandmother tried to get me to recite. I still do the knuckles thing. :D By the way, a small group of artists, photographers, a sort of small international consortium has got together for weekly drawing challenges. I’m hosting this next one if you’d like to pop by and see, maybe you might like to join. :D
Barb says
Thank you Veronica! Thank you for the invite – I checked it out but I have never drawn anything in my life! :)

Hi Barb !,
You’re doing so well, and I’ve really been enjoying reading your daily posts ! Love your photos as always :)
Mary says
my #1 tip for blogging is to take LOTS of photos and trust that surely one of them will help you tell a story. clearly, you have that part nailed! honestly, Barb, you could simply post one of your pretty still lifes for the next 14 days and I would be perfectly happy!
Barb says
Thank you, Mary!
