Reflections 2018 A to Z Challenge



I can barely type, my knuckles are stiff from packing boxes. An unexpected opportunity to move to Arizona came upon us and we seized it. The past several weeks contained a flurry of semi-controlled chaos. Traveling back and forth between Utah and Arizona. Selling a condo, buying a house. Purging junk and packing stuff.

Luckily, I had my blog posts ready and scheduled... that's the only way I was able to complete the April Blogging from A to Z Challenge. However, I had very little time to visit other blogs and leave comments, and I really missed that!

This was my fourth consecutive year of participating in the A to Z Challenge, and I plan to jump in again next year. I have April 2019 blocked off... but so was April 2018 and look what happened. Life!

The physical move happens this week, followed by unpacking. At least I won't be under a time crunch, meaning, maybe I'll be unpacked by next year's challenge!

      Thank you! So far, things have been fairly smooth, except for internet and cable glitches. (Sorry for the late response!)

    I would never have known from your posts that you were in such a state of upheaval. Great job.

      I'm soooo looking forward to having some routines back, that's for sure.

    There is definitely an advantage to finishing all the entries well in advance of April, isn't there? I know it's probably crazy over at your end, what with packing, moving, and unpacking, but when things roll to a stop the lists will still be out there so you can visit other blogs at your leisure. Congratulations on completing the challenge, and thanks for participating!

    I hope you'll be back. I planned to follow your blog.

    We are also moving this month. We went to the new place to establish an address, then came back to close out the lease and pack final bags. We leave for good on Sunday, and HERE'S TO getting into a new routine!

      Good luck with your move!
