The brainchild of Arlee Bird, at Tossing it Out
|
Ecstatic. . .
From the Greek ekstatikos, “characterized by intense emotions.” As I’m ecstatic to be on E, but I’d be more ecstatic to be on Z. How are you doing so far? Did you plan ahead? Did you do a theme? Are you going to make it to Z? Will you be ecstatic if you do? Want to visit more ECSTATIC PEEPS?

I'm ecstatic that I'm keeping up this year on Geek Twins. I wrote some posts in advance, but now I'm back to working on them as needed. But I always enjoy the way the challenge forces me to come up with new ideas that I wouldn't have done otherwise. And I'm ecstatic that my brother helps with half the posts. Nice job!
Carrie Butler says
I'd be more ecstatic to be on Z, too. Whew! This is hard work.
Cecilia Robert says
I love your E! π I'd planned to take part in A-Z but so much stuff came up I couldn't, and ended up cancelling my participation. I wasn't Ecstatic about it. But I'll tell you what I'm Ecstatic about: Finish my two writing projects before the deadline: June 2013. π Happy Ecstatic Weekend!!:..LOL. Look forward to tomorrow's post. π
Kelly Hashway says
Fun word. I'm ecstatic that we're getting a pool.
C. Lee McKenzie says
Enjoy!
DL Hammons says
Right now I'm just ecstatic about the day off tomorrow! π
C. Lee McKenzie says
I think we're all thinking that!
Jemi Fraser says
It's the weekend – ecstatic is a good word!
Medeia Sharif says
I'm ecstatic it's Saturday, but I know tomorrow I'll be frenzied getting everything done before Monday since I cram everything into the weekend.
Empty Nest Insider says
Lots to be ecstatic about! One more day before the big sleep!

Nick Wilford says
I'm ecstatic and exhilarated! It's no light undertaking but I'm still having fun. π
J.L. Campbell says
It's hectic all right, but I'm trying to stay afloat. Missed some letters including tomorrow's so I gotta go do that.
Crystal Collier says
Actually, I dropped off the map today. *hiding behind hands* I wrote my posts in advance, knowing I'd have a tribe of family in town for part of April–and would you look at that, here they are? Nothing like real, live conversation to keep you from the virtual world, eh?
DMS says
Great word! I love the photo to go with it. π

Lexa Cain says
Impatient for Z already? I bet there will be a lot of writing adventures along the way, and you'll be at Z before you know it.
BTW, I've lost track of Stephen Tremp. I had him at Chase Manhattan blog, and now can't get on that one because I'm not a "member." He's such a sweetie, always comments on my stuff – but now I'm confused. Have any idea where he is?
Lexa Cain says
Got it – thanks so much, Lee!
michelle says
Hey C.Lee, I'm ecstatic that week one is almost over!
Keep going!
klahanie says
Oh yeah, I'm ecstatic to see that list of names of all those amazing hosts of this alphabet challenge.
And "Z", you mention, heck I did that ages ago π Enjoy your weekend.
Gary, your cordial host at the alternate alphabet challenge!
Kelly Polark says
EEP! You have a long way to go, Lee!
I commend you on your determination to go A to Z! I've been so busy lately, I barely get my ZZZZZ's. π
Pk Hrezo says
LOL… me too!!! It's fun, but you gotta admit, a challenge. Especially while trying to write a first draft as well. Oy.
Catherine Stine says
I'm ecstatic that the temperature is almost 60 degrees outside!
C. Lee McKenzie says
That's bearable. I prefer 75, but I'll take 60!
The Golden Eagle says
I'll be ecstatic if I make it to Z! I'm pretty sure I will, but there's a lot to keep up with. New posts, new comments, writing your own posts . . . gah.
C. Lee McKenzie says
You seem to be doing it all with the grace of an eagle!
L. Diane Wolfe says
I'm keeping up – barely.
C. Lee McKenzie says
We need more vitamins!
Mark Means says
I'm doing o.k. I planned my theme and who I would be writing about and have managed to stay a post ahead. Been a lot of fun, so far, and I'm getting to meet a lot of great, new bloggers.
C. Lee McKenzie says
Meeting new bloggers is really the best part, isn't it? I love my old friends, too, so I'm double happy during April.
Julie Flanders says
Great choice for E, love the pic. I know I'll be beyond ecstatic on April 30! The challenge is such fun but it's running me ragged this year LOL.
C. Lee McKenzie says
I hear you!
S.K. Anthony says
I'll be ecstatic for all of you who do finish the challenge. Notice how I didn't join? Yeah… I knew I wouldn't have the time lol
Loving these words π
C. Lee McKenzie says
Next year, okay?
Nana Prah says
What a wonderful word. I love it. I'm ecstatic to be reading all of these new-to-me blogs.
C. Lee McKenzie says
Thanks for your visit. Come back!
Natasha Duncan-Drake says
I'm almost ecstatic, I only have five posts left to write. Something must be wrong, I am never this organised π
C. Lee McKenzie says
But it seems the AtoZ has brought this talent out in you! There's a reason for doing the challenge.
Jinky says
A bit stressed but enjoying learning about my theme (Greek mythology). I will definitely be ecstatic WHEN I get to Z!
C. Lee McKenzie says
I love your theme. I'm keeping track of those myths as we go along.
Scribbles From Jenn says
I agree, I will be very ecstatic when I get to Z. But since I still have a few post scheduled, I'm ecstatic about E, too.

C. Lee McKenzie says
Planning! I'm all for that! Congratulations.
Beth says
Great E post. I'm the opposite of ecstatic today.
C. Lee McKenzie says
Sorry. Hope tomorrow finds you in a better situation.
Alex J. Cavanaugh says
Right now I'm just looking forward to Sunday so I can catch up.
C. Lee McKenzie says
And here I thought it was Sunday. I'm losing it.
