Happy 1 Year Anniversary

   Wow!  It is so hard to believe but one year ago, I started this blog.  I cannot believe how quickly time flies.  There has been many times that I have neglected the blog and for that I am sorry.  Writing it and having the Facebook page and visiting with you all has helped me more than I am sure has helped you.  I have met so many wonderful people and you all mean the world to me.  And the stuff I have learned!  Man, oh man!  Thanks for hanging with me for the past year and hope we will grow and learn more from each other this next year.
   Here are some facts from the first year of my blog and FB page:
              In one year (365 days), I have written 129 posts.  That equals to me writing one post every 3 days for a year.  Not as bad as I thought.  :-) In those 129 posts, I've received 1459 comments.  Gee whiz!  Now that is impressive.  Do you know what that tells me?  It tells me how engaged and responsive my followers are.  I average ELEVEN comments per post.  That is so amazing and wonderful.  Thank you for communicating with me and being interested in what I have had to say.
    Again, thank you everyone!
