I can't believe my blog is 8 years old!
And this time my blogaversary is on the real date because I started it on February 29, 2008 which was a leap year.
I have written 2453 blog posts.
I started Musings when we were preparing for our move from Chicago to Hawaii. I thought it would be a way to keep our children and friends up to date on our activities.
It accomplished that purpose beautifully, but it also opened up the world to me (and Art too). Suddenly I had friends all over the mainland and even around the globe. It was a heady feeling.
Blog friends opened me to new ideas and gave helpful advice on any problems I shared.
On this special day, I'd like to thank all my friends, old and new for the caring and friendship you have kindly shared with me. You have enriched my life and kept my brain from moldering. Thank you, thank you. Now on to Year #9!

That is just great, Kay! Happy Day and here's to year 9 (raising my coffee cup).
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed your blog and am a fairly new follower. Mine is about as old. Strange...the names of our blogs are similar.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, mine was begun March 31st 2008. At least that's the oldest one on record at my blog.
ReplyDeleteWell done, Kay.
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine you ever moldering.

I've only been following for a couple of years now, but do enjoy your posts. Congrats on your anniversary.

doors to other cultures. Here's to another 8 years.

Thank you and happy anniversary!
Wow! Eight years is a long time to blog. I continue to aspire to be as good of a blogger as you! You are amazing. Like Linda, I am sure that because you wrote on my blog, I now have all of these wonderful friends also. You, Art, your family, and your mom are like closest of neighbors to me. I know you much better than I know my neighbors or many of my friends. I love blogging and the friends I make. Keep on writing!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogaversary to one of my favorite bloggers. So glad to have met you and Art through this blog and think fondly of the two times we have met. Hope to see you again, maybe in Hilo?
