Yes, Phil Collins said it best when he said, "Ah, I missed again."
After setting myself up last week, I did in fact miss a day in the 30K in 30 Days challenge. And yes, that means it's embarrassing video time!
(That's the penalty for missing a day--warning to all those who said they wanted to jump on for April.)
I'm not sure which is more embarrassing, my silly face at the start there, or the fact that I totally missed my foot on my first hacky sack attempt.
Anywho, for your amusement, here I go (again). With my lovely assistant Laura; videography by Cat.
And now for the announcement: I'm taking a blog break for the month of April.
It's just too much, guys, and most of you are doing the A-Z Challenge (link) anyway. So I know you'll be too busy to miss me. It's a far more selfless thing I do...
No, I'll just be over here writing and working like crazy, and unless I miss a day, I won't be posting again until May 7. So if something major happens, would someone please shoot me an email? Thanks!
Have a super month, reader- and writer-friends! I'll be thinking of you. Back soon~ <3
Have a fantastic break, hon! Make it a relaxing time. Don't forget to do something for yourself, at least as some point. lol
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your writing break! We'll see you when you get back!! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Love your hacky sack clip! You did it in the end though - hooorah for you!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break and see you in the lovely month of May! Take care

LOL that takes skill, enjoy your break.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful break and happy writing!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have it off but with my book coming out, I can't afford to be missing from the blogisphere. See you May 7th!
Awesome video!!!! That rocked, Leigh!
ReplyDeleteAnd I totally get the 'gotta take a break' thing. In a moment of temporary insanity, I signed up for the A-to-Z, so no my precious free time will be spent writing even less... What the heck was I thinking?!?!?
Get rested, renewed, and restored, lady! Best wishes and warm thoughts! See you in May!!!
I love it! Great video...you are too cute. Have a fantastic break!! It will be nice to focus but we will miss you. At least we have FB. ;-) Oh and I know I was big talker about maybe jumping in...I decided that was not a good idea. You would be watching lots of silly videos of me! Have a great month, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI'm HORRIBLE at hackey sack!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break, relax, and write lots! I think I'll need one after this Challenge. See you in May!
Hahaha! Great video! I'm horrible at it. At least you hit it! I usually miss even on the first go. =/
ReplyDeleteTaking May off myself, for the same reason! Have a great break and hope you get some good work done!
DUDE!!! great job! it only took you three tries! that's amazing!
ReplyDeletewe have a fairy house on one of our trees too!

Well, you will be missed, but enjoy your break. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd when you come back check out my 4/1/12 post because I gave you an award! :)
You need to listen to your mind and body when it says TAKE A BREAK, so good for you! Enjoy your month off!!
ReplyDeleteps: thanks for posting your Clockwiser review on the zon :)
Awesome video! So good to "see" you and get an idea what you look & sound like. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd hurrah for you for taking April off! Enjoy yourself, and we'll see you back in May!

ReplyDeleteHaha, you know I'm all over your inbox when I've got news! Will miss ya! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHave a good blog-vacation!
ReplyDeleteAnd that video was awesome. You rock the sack!
Seems like lots of people are using A-Z as a blessing in disguise. Maybe I should take advantage too...
ReplyDeleteSee you in May. :)
Enjoy your break, but know this -
ReplyDeleteYOU WILL BE MISSED! Have a Happy Easter!
Susanne
PUTTING WORDS DOWN ON PAPER
Happy April and Spring...
ReplyDeleteI know you'll be INSANE, but try to take a breath from time to time.
BB hugs.... I'll miss you.
A to Z or not, I'd still come by to visit you!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'd love it if you made a video every week! :)
Ha! Better than I can do. LOL
ReplyDeleteHave a great break!!
You should have posted this on April 1st, and got everyone wondering.
ReplyDeleteOh good for you! Enjoy your break! I'll be taking one May 1 for the month. See ya on the flip flop ...er, uh, I mean the flip side. ;)
ReplyDelete@Chris--Thanks, man! Just rolling in from spring break, and I'm feeling like I've got everything backwards. Good luck w/A-Z! :o)
ReplyDelete@Margo--Thanks and Thanks for the award! I'm on fire... sort of. :D
@LBD--Thanks, and that hacky sack is a skill! ;p Til May~
@ATL--I thought about that, actually! But I think it not being a Monday would've given me away. Maybe... ;o)
@PK--Ahh, we keep missing each other it seems! But I'll meet you on the flip flop. Will it be at the beach??? :o) <3
Yay, hacky sack champ. Glad I get to see you in the real world even as I miss you in blog-land. :D
ReplyDeleteLoved the video, Leigh. Your hackey sac talents are way above mine. :)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. I'm feeling overwhelmed, too. Maybe I'll take a break in late June or early July.
I'm formatting today. :) So came to get your url.
You managed to knee that ball twice near the end there.
ReplyDelete:D we're out til may also. have a fantabulous break and get lots done! christy
ReplyDeleteI want your hair. Can I have it? Please? We'll switch:) Enjoy the break! See in you May!

ReplyDeleteHi, Valerie, and welcome! April flew by very fast, but I'm looking forward to getting back in the saddle Monday! Looking forward to getting to know you~ :o)
ReplyDeleteBlogger did play a dirty trick. I commented, I swear! The video is awesome. Look at you old pro. And thanks for all your encouragement this last month. I'm on the home stretch, and I'm gonna finish soon. I swear!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I hope you're enjoying the break and getting lots of work done. See you when you get back to the blog. Sometimes I like to fall off the face of the Blog World too and then reappear. Very refreshing!
