I meant to, but life got in the way.<br /><br />I somehow missed the thing about the leggings, but I loathe them. I may lose it if I'm invited to one more "party" for them or added to one more Facebook group for them.

Years ago on a flight a young woman used her phone throughout the entire trip, hiding it every time the attendant came by. She was reported, but since the attendant didn't see it she wouldn't or couldn't do anything.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15045554938847356871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-39093851456351765472017-03-29T05:10:08.656-04:002017-03-29T05:10:08.656-04:00It's not cheating to write your A to Z posts i...It's not cheating to write your A to Z posts in advance! I couldn't participate otherwise. And yes, it frees you up for reading and commenting on other blog posts.<br /><br />As for those leggings....I'm all about rules, and if the rules are that there's a different dress code for those who get to ride free, then that dress code must be adhered to. The story was misrepresented (typical).Martha Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02816162715577111411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-13817287284502844422017-03-28T13:34:41.958-04:002017-03-28T13:34:41.958-04:00My yoga pants are not skin tight, but some women i...My yoga pants are not skin tight, but some women in my class need to buy a larger size.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15045554938847356871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-45359335235615305002017-03-28T13:17:47.549-04:002017-03-28T13:17:47.549-04:00Of the four years I did A/Z, I pre-wrote all mine...Of the four years I did A/Z, I pre-wrote all mine before April started and then fine tuned them daily before I posted them. The first year I didn't pre-write and I learned a lesson when the hosts even suggested pre-writing. Good for you getting it done before the challenge starts! You have had an interesting 3 months of some unusual happenings. I too agree about leggings. Those and yoga pants. <br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-44595333970420791562017-03-28T12:36:30.369-04:002017-03-28T12:36:30.369-04:00Yes I am aware of the Sunday.

I...Congrats on finishing your A to Z posts, Denise. I'm stuck on "N", still. The A to Z Challenge is supposed to be a social event, so it only makes sense to prepare the entries ahead of time, otherwise, there won't be time for commenting and responding to visitors.<br /><br />As for leggings, I don't much care what other people wear in their leisure time, but they don't seem appropriate for the office. When I first heard about the United Airlines ban, I misunderstood and thought they were talking about paying passengers. That would surely be overstepping their bounds, in my opinion. If it's their dime, then I will have to (reluctantly) concede they have the right to call the shots about what people can wear.

I...As you know, I'm not doing A to Z this year. I always prepped mine in advance. Much easier on yourself. There is one Sunday you are supposed to post this year Denise, you should check it with the A to Z site. As for the leggings controversy, I couldn't agree more. Why not just walk around nude, we wouldn't see any more of you. OK if people wear them with appropriate tops, but most of these young women don't. Mind you, in Kitchener, it is not against the law to walk around bare chested. Never seen anyone do so, but it is legal.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-43945439752039602052017-03-28T10:46:14.044-04:002017-03-28T10:46:14.044-04:00I have leggings too but always cover my butt with ...I have leggings too but always cover my butt with a top.

I have tried to do the A to Z on a daily basis and found it to be a nagging chore and I ended up not having fun. I think the whole idea is to have fun and find some new blogs to add to my roll. I have XYZ to finish ... the hardest ones, in my opinion. <br /><br />I have a journal to write in every day. So, if my vote counts, I vote do them ahead! Also, by talking about "scheduling", you just might be helping someone else who doesn't know how to schedule and they'll ask you for help. That's how I learned about scheduling ... through AtoZ!<br /><br />Have a super day!Suddenly Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12483813654827621158noreply@blogger.com
