I missed my Blog anniversary and its Tuesday Tunes
I completely missed my blog anniversary on August 5th. As y'all know i was a little busy a few weeks ago to say the least with my Dad in the hospital. This month is my 2nd year to be a blogger. I feel like i have learned so much and changed my views of some ideas i had of blogging. When i first started and i saw everyone's numbers on their sidebar of followers, i felt that i needed to have tons of followers. Now i can honestly tell you that i am content with when i blog and what i blog about and maintaining my handful of faithful readers. Blogging is not a contest and it never should be. It's an outlet to get yourself out there with your idea, feelings, life events and voice. I started this blog as my outlet to get my feelings and fear of my Dad's illness. Through that journey , i have met some amazing people here and even someone who's father also had a double lung transplant. For those moments, i am so grateful and happy. I never thought 2 years ago when i began the blog that i would be sharing my wedding and that i'm even getting married to another man than who i was dating back then. To my readers of this little ol blog- THANK YOU!!
Now for my song today... Its by a country singer of the name Kip Moore. The song is Hey Pretty Girl and i love it!
Awww....I love this song as well!!! Sometimes I think "what if hadn't started blogging?" and then I freak myself out, because I would have missed out on some incredibly fabulous women and friendships...Love Me Some Holli!!!!!! ;)
I have a lot more to learn in the blogging world but i am so excited that i started it too. I was nervous at first but i am getting more comfortable in my writing skin after all. You're such a great blogger friend and i'm very glad we connected for sure!
Deb, i am so so happy to be blogging buddies with you. Your blog brings a smile to my face and i love getting to know you. I'm so flattered by your compliment of being upbeat. I do try but sometimes i feel like i'm Eoyore the depressing donkey from Winnie the Pooh. Thank you for being faithful reader.
Happy Blogiversary! I am so glad Rosie assigned your blog to me wwwaaaaay back whenever it was! You have such a wonderful spirit! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
Marci- i cant say enough how much i adore you, respect you, love you! You're truly my blogging angel and have remained as such. One day we will meet in person and i can cash in on the hugs you've sent me.
Phil, you being one of my followers has made my year! I enjoy reading your blog so much too and i cant wait for the day to eat at some yummy places with you in NY!
I too, felt the same way when I started blogging in early 2012. I didn't understand how some bloggers had 3212 followers when all they talked about was bad wine and Tory Burch. But, to each their own. I learned what it's really about, and why I do this. Kudos that you were able to realize what this is really about. I'm glad we found each other on here!
Happy Blogiversary and I cannot believe you are only 10 DAYS away!!
