Oh
dear, I knew it was too good to last! I am 4 days behind with the
A-Z challenge. I do however have a very good excuse. We have had no
internet access for 3 days. Apparently according to BT's status
help line there has been a major problem in our area. This seems to
mean our village! No idea what happened but it is now back. I can't
tell you how annoying it was. How the world has changed, that
being without internet access is so frustrating.
Anyway,
I have missed M, N, O and P. I am not going to have the time to do
them justice so I think I will just make this a quick catch up for
all 4.
M
is for Morton. I live in the village of Morton. It is in the county
of Lincolnshire and on the edge of the Fens. I love it here. This
photo shows the village church. It is at the very far end of the
village from me but I can see the clock from my garden.
N
is for nothing! After nearly an hour of pondering, I simply have not
been able to think of anything, so it is NOTHING!
O
is for Osmonds, specifically Donny Osmond! In the mid seventies I
was a teeny bopper and Donny Osmond was my hero. I was going to
marry him! Somehow that never worked out! This was the only period
in my life when I was really into music. I still like Donny Osmond
and still think he has a lovely voice but it is years since I have
played any of his stuff. I never play or listen to any music really.
I never have the radio on. I prefer peace and quiet.
This is a young Donny Osmond. The one from my teens.
P
is for positivity. I touched on this in an earlier blog. I am a
realist so I can sometimes find it hard to remain positive but it is
an area that I am currently trying to work hard on. I am currently
positive that I am going to find it very hard to do tomorrows
challenge with the letter Q! Sorry! Couldn't resist that.
As
you can see I am now really struggling with this whole challenge
thing.
I
just checked out the official list and I haven't been struck off yet!
I am currently number 1586. I have read some blogs but with over
1600 there is little chance of me getting through all of them! How
lovely it would be to have that much time.
I
am looking forward to seeing what people come up with tomorrow for
the letter Q. In particular my cousin who is working on a theme of
friends and family.
Thinking
of themes, maybe that is where I have gone wrong in doing random
blogs. Perhaps a theme would have been easier. I don't know. I'll
try and struggle on.
