I've finally arrived at my 2,000th posts. When I began blogging in 2012 I didn't realize I'd still be blogging 10 years later, and I definitely didn't think about a milestone of 2,000 posts.
It often seems like blogging has run its course in today's busy society with newer and quicker communication platforms replacing it. Like several other blogging friends, I've been tempted to stop, but it's become a journal of sorts and an invaluable reference resource while working on Shutterfly albums, etc. I've referred back to it many times.
I think I have a couple of followers who have been with me from the beginning and one in particular has always been so faithful leaving a comment [yes, that's you, Joy!].
I have met many wonderful people through my blog, and that is another good reason to keep writing. So if you've been with me a long time or a little while, you have my heartfelt gratitude. Your support is greatly appreciated.
As I approached this 2,000th post I began thinking about a meaningful giveaway that would be connected to my blog, and I came up with the idea of a writing or stationery basket.
So here's what's in the basket... A Hallmark desk set [tablet, pen, and notecards]
Congratulations! Gosh, it is amazing how quickly time has gone by. Now that I am retired I have more time to read blogs. I do miss some of my favorites who switched to Instagram or other platforms. Or just disappeared! Please let me pass on an entry. I would like my chance to go to someone else.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 2000th blog!!! I don't think I've been "visiting" you from the start, but I do know that I've been enjoying your blog for at least 7 or 8 years now. You and I have a cup of tea every morning when I first sit down at my computer.
ReplyDeleteHere's to another 2000 posts!!!!
Lovely giveaway! Add my name to your drawing!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 2,000th post, I have been blogging since about 2007 and now I wonder how many posts I have done. Please give my chance to someone else.

Congratulations - although it doesn't seem like I've been reading your blog for 10 years. Time passes quickly, it seems, at least recently. I am delighted to have several bloggers who I consider to be friends, and you are one of them. I just wish there wasn't so much distance between our homes. :-)
ReplyDeleteYour giveaway basket is lovely and I would like to be entered in the drawing. And I appreciate the sentence about me commenting. The way I see it, if someone is going to take the time to write a blog, and I enjoy reading it, the least I can do is comment to let them know that I read it. Here's to many more years of blog posts and comments - and friendship!
Congratulations and please keep blogging. I love reading your stories and seeing your pictures. Your emails usually are the best thing in my in box. Please include me in the give a way too. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations - that's a lot of posts. 8-)
ReplyDeleteI don't know how long I've been a subscriber but it's long enough to know I enjoy your blog.
Thanks for sponsoring this sweet give-away.
