Yes today, June 1, 2021, marks seven years since the first post here on this here little blog thingy. Inspired by many dear friends out here in the blog community, I stepped out on a limb and wrote my first post.
Little did I ever dream that as of today I would still be blogging but also have 976 followers, 3,984 posts, 14,771 comments and 453,386 views from 147,739 visitors.
I actually love blogging and especially love the community. I am not good as I should be at keeping up with others and am even worse about commenting. I love comments and thus I should comment more. Maybe I should set a goal. Hmmmm.
Thank each and every one of you for reading, clicking, commenting, liking and for the love that is in our community. Cheers to year 8!
