I had several goals going into the Blog-A-Thon.

  • Write a huge number of posts
  • Have the content of the posts be meaningful
  • Establish the three new blogs I had in mind to begin – Heartprint, Internal Innovation, and Resolution Revolution
  • Write at least one new post on each of my eleven blogs
  • Introduce my group writing contest
  • Have fun
  • Learn about myself
  • Help others

I accomplished all but the first and fifth ones, and I am working on getting that fifth one tackled before evening’s end. 

I also got a lot of things done in the last 31 hours that I had no idea I would accomplish. I sort of planned on just writing, but life got in the way in interesting ways. Besides writing, I

  • cleaned the bathrooms
  • did five loads of laundry
  • made the beds
  • vacuumed
  • joined a gym (and was not particularly upset by most of my measurements)
  • had dinner with my wife’s parents and aunt
  • filled a swimming pool
  • slept a reasonable amount of time

So the answer to “was the day particularly successful” is a resounding “yes”! no one contributed any money to Make a Difference, but I think I didn’t market that well either. I’ll give that more thought – would sure like to get some donations flowing their way.

Anyway, tomorrow will be time for doing chores around the house and out and about. But chances are, I’ll get a few blog posts in too. And I’ll be quite happy with it, I suspect.
