Insurmountable?

I feel like a tiny spec at the bottom of this mountain.
And I need to be to the top of this mountain in less than 30 days.

And I don't have a lot of expience mountain climbing.
OK, I've NEVER climbed a montain.

I've hiked.
I've climbed hills.
But never a mountain.

What on earth am I talking about?
(I love analogies & symbolism)

I've joined National BlogWritingMonth (NaBloWriMo)
and
National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo)

The blogging part I can handle.
The novel part...feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Every time I sit down to write, I get a little out...and then I think it's so horrible I restart.
I think I've restarted three times.
I can't committ to a story line.
What's wrong with me?!

In order to complete 50,000 words by November 30th, I need to write an average of 1.667 words a day.  And right now, as of Day 4...I'm way behind.

If I can get caught up this weekend, it may be hopeless.

Are you participating in any kind of writing challenge?
If you're not a writer, what's your poison?  What kind of challenges would you participate in?

Classy Chaos Challenge

OHMOMMY has a challenge on her blog today, a Classy Chaos Challenge. She takes fabulous photographs and wants us to think outside the box with our cameras. So, here's my contribution...taking pictures of heads from above. I took this a while back, actually, but it works! Here's Remy on the playground.

And me zooming down on his head from above.
