For the first few years that I blogged, I participated in National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo). The only reason why I didn’t last year was that I was participating in the harder, but more rewarding, NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month).

But I’ve not been blogging this year like I have in the past, especially not in the last couple of weeks.

So why would I commit to blog every day in November?

Because, really, what else will I do in the month of November? Today my unemployment officially begins. Whether I like the idea or not, chances are not good that I’d start a new job before the end of the month. While I’d love to at least have one lined up by December 1st, my secondary goal of having a job by January is much more realistic, and still optimistic.

So, I’m going to blog my unemployment. Don’t worry, I don’t plan on going pessimistic on you. I doubt I’ll talk about the economy, or even much about my job search. I’d rather focus on what I believe God is doing through this time.

Fellow bloggers, are you doing NaBloPoMo this year?
