I have had so many opportunities to celebrate anniversaries on my WordPress blog. First it was 10 followers, then 500, then an unbelievable 2576 but I hesitated. It is never too late, so – Thank you very much to my followers and friends in the WordPress community. Your kind words have been a source of comfort during a challenging time in our lives. So many of my original blogging friends have stopped posting in the last two years. Even more sadly, some have died and we miss them. Their spirit lives on in their writing.
Then I received this notification of 500 posts and felt it was time to honor my love of writing. When I first started blogging, I was only interested in writing travel posts but as I started reading other blogs I wondered about sharing even more. Admittedly, some of my posts were just drivel, or contentious, and I have deleted quite a few… It always puzzles me which posts generate the most comments or likes. Floral Spike was one of my most recent successes and I was surprised that gardening was so popular.
These are some of the categories that I have chosen to write about with links to my favorite posts: –
Travel – Mayapan Ruinas – sshhh
Fashion and Lifestyle – Fall Fashion
Mental Health – Mental Illness is a REAL Illness
Family History – Forgotten Family Faces
Wildlife – Cute Closeups
Cats – The Last Cat
Fiction – The Dystopian State of Texas – 2038
Personal – Body Image
Miscellaneous – My Love of Languages
I have posted a new avatar photo that better reflects my life now. Every time I looked at my previous image, it felt like someone else. I am older with a new hair color for autumn. Maple spice, perhaps? It is really just a mix of stuff in my hair color box and I will not be able to replicate it. Like so many others, I am looking forward to having my hair professionally dyed once the Delta Variant has been tamped down. So, so excited about going out for a steak dinner!
Thank you for reading and connecting with me – your friendships mean the world. 💕
