#sol17 Day 6: Monday, what am I doing today?

I made my absent minded old lady, anti-procrastination list and have been working through it but still have no sense of Monday-ness or what I'm doing today. Or maybe I have a case of "mondayness", which the Urban Dictionary defines as "when everything seems to be going wrong, like on a Monday!"

on procrastination & the blogger #sol17 Day 4

After posting all three slices so far at 11:58 pm EST on their respective days, procrastination has been on my mind. I'm probably not alone. I may not make it through the month writing and posting at the last minute. So I'm working on that while trying to understand the underlying why.

Progress: although I could should/ maybe could have posted earlier, I just knocked half an hour off my usual time. That's a start. 

A very short #sol17 Day 3 post

…out most of the day, returned home to a Life in the #Manor media request of sorts. A tale (or future post) about the dynamics of life in small, relatively closed communities lies therein...later, not now. Today the post is pictures of Yuma (above) and Wray (below). Besides, I'm taking my own advice of short posts as better than none.

on rolling out the #sol17 Welcome Wagon w/o falling off

This year I signed up for the SOLSC Welcome Wagon. By now Two Writing Teachers has assigned me seven first time slicers. There may be a few more by the March 5 deadline.

All are teachers (sounds obvious is not a SOLSC requirement) and have been writing blog posts or professional papers. Below, I'll lay out my qualifications -- or lack thereof. Upfront, I confess to signing up on a lark and to help me not fall off the blogging wagon. After several days of getting acquainted, reading and responding to posts, I know now that "wagoneering" will what most enriches this year's slicing.

the view from here: slicing plan for #sol17

…wherever (or whatever) "here" is. I already blogged my intent to slice my way through the month of March. Today I've been reading and responding to posts. Exhilarating. The immersion was to settle in after an extended absence from slicing and blogging in general.

I should have a plan, thought I did. Now, other than writing and diving into as many other blogs as possible, I don't and no idea where I'm heading. Also exhilarating.

Sunday afternoon at the #Manor contemplating community, challenges & calendars

…#sol17 March blog challenge, that is. The subject line alone is almost a post. Ha! Now to keep the rest brief, not going on until consigned to draft oblivion. Here's hoping a public announcement and declaration of intent will motivate me. On top of that, I volunteered for the SOLSC Welcome Wagon -- in for a penny, in for a pound. This last may be the most effective ploy to keep me from falling off the blogging wagon. Commitments to oneself are always easier to duck.
