While I’m definitely experiencing some post-Christmas weariness, the DPP routine is hard to shake! I found myself in front of my computer last night, wondering which photo to post for DPP Day 26. Though I knew the project was over—and believe me, those 25 days were enough of a challenge—I still felt oddly compelled to upload a picture. I resisted the temptation, ate a piece of chocolate, opened a book and called it a day.
Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the awesome participants of the December Photo Project! We had an amazing and unexpected number of bloggers join up this year and I’ve really enjoyed viewing the month through your eyes. I’ve made some new blogging connections, added a few to my mental blogroll (very different from the actual one because I’m so lazy in updating it) and thoroughly enjoyed the photos I’ve seen.
I’ll leave the DPP roster up for a few more days and then, much like my Christmas tree, the blog will be cleaned up and I’ll head into a new year with a clean slate. If I don’t hear much from you in the next 11 months, that’s cool. But make sure to join us again next year for December Photo Project 2009!

Thanks so much for the challenge! We have family on both the N.American and European Continent and the challenge forced me to upload pictures daily for them. They were most appreciative, even when we were in the same house, they were looking for my picture of the day!
And like you, I couldn’t shake it and uploaded again tomorrow and am in the process for today! Merry Christmas, and thanks again!!

I can’t stop uploading pictures either. It’s kind of a habit now. I’m sure it will wear off soon but I know my family has enjoyed it as well. Thanks for the DPP 08 challenge. I had fun.

It’s been fun (and challenging on certain days). Thanks for hosting and encouraging us to all join in the fun!

I fought the very same temptation on Day 26. Somehow I found the self-control to relax. :-)

Although I really couldn’t keep up, I say that it certainly helped to get my creative juices flowing. I would write a post ahead of time and schedule it throughout the week. I really didn’t have time during the week to post very much, but I thought, “I’m going to try.” And I was glad to have taken the challenge even though I couldn’t get do it every day. Thanks for letting me try! I hope you have a wonderful and fruitful New Year. Blessings. Puna

I didn’t think I’d make it through DPP having come right off of NaBloPoMo, but I don’t think I hit a wall until perhaps Dec. 22. Great fun, as always!
