My first anniversary !

One year ago today I was sitting on my couch and Mr. Downeastdoingstuff, also known as Birdman on his blog, said to me:

"You should do a blog."

This was from the mouth of a person that had just started his own Daily Photo blog the day before, so by now, he was a blog expert.

"What?"

"You should start a blog."

"Nah.""I don't need one more thing to do...."

"Well, you should just check it out."

So he told me where to go on the internet and by that night, I had a blog.

One year ago today.

I just want to thank all the lovely folks that have bothered to eyeball my blog and especially to the people that have written comments. It's been a lot of fun and I so enjoyed reading all of your blogs. There are so many lovely, lovely people out there. 

As Birdman and I go on our next adventure (his heart surgery on Tuesday), I know I will be given so much support via this blog. It's been a wonderful journey.

Thank you all.

How neat - one year. I'll have to look back at mine - but I think it's been around three years.

Good wishes for Tuesday!!!!

What did we do before blogs??? Happy blogiversary. I think I found your blog through someone else here in Maine and I'm sure glad I did. I'll be thinking of you both on Tuesday.

Can you feel us all gathering around you and Birdman and the rest of the family, surrounding you with light? This is quite amazing. Happy blog birthday, Elenka! Meeting you and Birdman has been one of the best of the extraordinary gifts that have come my way through this CDP community.

Now, you bloggers got me through my surgery and recuperation. I'm here for you, Birdman, with my care and prayers.Let us know how things went, Elenka.

Congratulations, Elenka, on a job well done! I have enjoyed each and every one of your postings - from the "I Hate Ironing" to the "Squirrel Caper Episodes". Keep up the good work!

Elenka....Congratulations on 1 year! Reading how you got started blogging made me laugh because mine was so similar and it is also one year this month for me. It's been great coming here when I can and you have the most wonderful sense of humor. I will be praying for your hubby and you on the 5th with much enthusiasm and compassion....you see, I had a heart attack on December 26 and was released from Maine Med on December 29, one day before my birthday! My life has changed immensely now...I was given a second chance. God is good.

belated happy blogiversary.... I've enjoyed your humour and love to see your "stuff" that you are doing...

man, sometimes I get so behind! and I have no excuse...really, I seem to be doing so little of anything these days....sigh...

that does it...I'm adding you to my blogroll instead of just the list of my followed blogs. I like to see when a blog is updated on the blogroll...then I go there... but, the list of followed blogs...well, they just don't get read nearly as often..
