2020 #MTBoS12days "Yule Blog" Challenge

Winter Break has finally arrived!  I don't know about you, but this year's break couldn't come fast enough!  2020 has been a unique and very challenging year, but I also have learned a ton and grown professionally, so I definitely want to take some time to reflect on those moments and hopefully get back into a blogging habit!

Over the years, @pamjwilson and I have often hosted a "Yule Blog" challenge to help us with blogging over the break, so I was extremely grateful when Pam was willing to do this again!  This year's prompts will be a bit more serious than previous years simply due to how different this year has been for all of us!

Your challenge... if you choose to accept it... is to blog 12 times over your Winter Break.  There are prompts listed below, but don't feel like you have to blog in this order or even use the prompts at all!  You'll also notice that there are more than 12 prompts - that's in case you want to combine some or if you don't like one or more of them!  But again, the prompts are only there as a suggestion when you don't know what else to blog about! :)

Please share your post with us in the comments or via Twitter using the hashtag #MTBoSYuleBlog - we can't wait to read your reflections on 2020!!

Hi Shelli! I remember how you tweeted that you're doing another blog challenge, and so of course I had to participate! Here's the link:
