Whew. I'm glad that's over.
I found out about the challenge from my blogtacular friend Rae (maybe you've heard me mention her?). I have taken part in NaBloPoMo, both successfully and unsuccessfully, so I thought I would give this one a try. I thought having a letter to blog about each day would make it easier.
Um. No.
I had a lot of fun, though. It was kind of intoxicating there at the beginning, when I started to get followers and comments. Then it became kind of stressful and I had a little meltdown there around U and V.
But I made it through, thanks to some of my new friends, like her and her. They really kept me going!
I don't think I will be able to post 6 or 7 times a week, but I am definitely going to try to develop a schedule with certain types of posts for certain days. I may even set aside one day a week to write the posts that I listed in my (U)npost that I really wanted to blog about. I need to get back to my whiny roots, that's for darn sure.
I wish I had figured out how to post the badge on my blog. I was trying not to show my ignorance after the whole comment debacle. And I have no idea what this linky link thing is, but I will give it a try.
All in all, I really enjoyed this challenge and I am thankful to arlee bird for all his hard work.
15 years is giant metal chickens. Or sweet stuffed animals. Welcome to the

Congratulations of finishing the Challenge!
Adding the post is easy. click "Customise" on the top right of your blog page. Click on "Add a gadget", choose "Add a picture"
go to the badge, right click on it, and choose "copy url". Paste that in the url option, save.
that's all there is to it!
Congratulations on making it to the finish line, dear girl! I may not have commented daily, or even regularly, but you are in my *Read These* folder so I WILL be back ... assuming you continue writing! Just don't get too whiny or we'll have to whoop ya! :)
You made it through--that's what matters. And your summary had me giggling... that helps too. I figure if you can get somebody giggling, then you get to call it a success no matter what.
Somewhere along the line I lost track of you, but I've found you again... need to get you in my sidebar, as the brain in my HEAD has a faulty memory, but the brain in the blogger mostly does okay.
Ah yes, the meltdown, the comments, the un-post...so glad to see that I'm not the only one who struggled to finish the challenge. You did a wonderful job! Congratulations.
Woohoo!! You go girl. You did it! I'm so glad you finished it out and really, we do have to go pick a bar fight. ;)
I'm thankful for this challenge 'cause otherwise I wouldn't have met awesome people like you.
Sorry for my comment absence of late. Got sick and am still getting over it.
Have a great week!
I received the Sunshine Award today along with an admonition to pass it on to 12 others. Your blog is one of many that brings sunshine to my life so I am choosing you to pass it on to. Please come here to pick it up. Thanks!

You did a great job despite a rocky start with the comments. But you hung in there and made it to the end-- thank you! Let me know if you need any more help putting the winner's badge up. Try Rayna's suggestion. And don't be too whiny. Beth just gave you a Sunshine Award to make you all bright and chirpy and all.
Be seeing you on the blogs.
