- Feb- I was able to visit 30 but again I did them all kind of in one shot, I would really like to spread this out more and even visit a ton more blogs, stupid real life keeps getting in the way lol
- March – I didn’t do so good this month with my blogging break and nervous breakdown (that’s what I am calling it) so I will try and do double next month if not at least visit 3 blogs a day
- April – This was a bad month for me, my blogging break has made me still in a slump and I wasn’t able to visit as many as I would have liked, I also had a few family crisis to take care of but I am hoping next month will be better
- May – As most of you know I have been dealing with some serious family issues and was unable to visit people this month. Fingers crossed things get better soon and I will be back to visiting in no time.

Giveaway
Well I met two out of five and almost met the other three. Not quite a success, so I did not include my wrapup link.
I hope to sign up for 2016 sometime this week. Thanks again for hosting this!
I was doing great with netgalley and then requested a few more books, I think I am 66% again now. I am hoping to reach the 70% next year! You did great with al your goals. It’s too bad about the wight loss goal though, but I agree with you that food is too yummy to give up!
Great job on all your goals. Dieting can be really hard. I’ve been dieting pretty hard for like three years and I about where I was when I started. I’ve been down and then I went way up. Now, I’m back where I started. Now that the holidays are over, I’m going to go at it again. Who knows, maybe this will be our dieting year. LOL
I hope so, fingers crossed for us lol
I love the little cartoon. After being sick for 4 months straight now, I would like to gain back a little of the weight I’ve lost.
Good job on getting that NetGalley percentage up. That’s a tough one!
I am glad you are feeling better. I just want to at least get back to what I was before my kids. That might take a lot of work but maybe next year, Just don’t want to feel pressure about doing it so I am going to take my time.
Netgalley is hard to get the percentage up so I am very happy with my complishment 🙂
Totally bombed this challenge, so hopefully my goals for next year will be more attainable. 🙂
I think this year was a little harder with the rules. I am looking forward to the changes we made.
wow, I think you did fantastic!! I wish you lots of luck, I can’t wait to join in next year!!
Thanks Joann! I hope you can get to all your goals next year.
