I used to have a calendar that on the June 30 square said, “Half the year is gone. Have you reached half your goals?” Kind of passive aggressive for paper office supplies, right?<\/p>\n

As I mentioned a couple posts ago, my life has been a bit out of my control lately, and I haven’t been able to do all the things I want to do in as timely a fashion as I’d like. This is a perennial issue for me, particularly in late spring. From Mother’s Day to Independence Day is a busy time for the Jaffe\/Hubbell\/Jaffe-Hubbell clan. There are holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, end of school celebrations, graduations, and a never-ending procession of opportunities to eat cake. I don’t mind the cake, but there’s not a lot of room to breathe, let alone blog regularly.<\/p>\n

Still, for the last couple years, I’ve pulled out the stops every May and participated in the Wordcount Blogathon<\/a>. This year, the blogathon was moved to June, my third go-round. It will be harder to blog every single day in June than if it remained a May event, but I’m up for the challenge. I think. I’ll be sharing blogs I like — there are 213 participating this year — and try to get back on in the habit of sharing my very important opinions with the world.<\/p>\n

I don’t know that I’d ever be productive to achieve half of my annual goals in half a year. I tend to be overly ambitious in my goal setting. But at the end of this month, I hope to be able to say I made it through the blogathon. On your mark, get set…write!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
