First Blogiversary
A year ago today, I began blogging in earnest. I already had a few posts in my original Blogspot.com blog, but had only “journalized” them for my own benefit. I wasn’t really blogging.
On November 1, I wrote the very first post which was not intended as a “journal entry,” although it was a while before my blog firmed up into something a bit more eclectic. By the end of December, I could no longer tolerate Blogspot.com, and acquired Blogsplot.net. Blogsplot.net is now the home of fifteen different blogs … six of which are mine. Not all of the blogs are “linked in.” Mine have been sadly neglected since we left for camp about 3 months ago. I’m trying to get on top of the mess at home with the moving and unpacking, and when I do, I’ll come back up to speed with my blogging.
The terrain has changed a lot in the last year … there are people that I really miss: Dr. IBear and Dr. Dork are two of them. (I hope that Dr. IBear remembers that we’re going to hit a Pink Floyd concert sometime, and then get silly on Grateful Deads! ;o)
Before I quit - I want to send kudos and greetings - and thanks - to Dr. Bob of The Doctor is In. His was the first blog I ever ran across, and I must say that it shaped my own ideas about blogging a great deal. I count Dr. Bob rather high among my blog friends, today.
I don’t have time for a long entry, but I didn’t want to let the day go by without sharing my first blogiversary with all of you, and say thank you … because I would not have persevered if it weren’t for all of my good friends.
By the way - my Bloglines is up over 1000 unread posts … *sigh* … please don’t give up on me! Another day or two, and I should be caught up enough to start chipping away at all of my piled up reading … *blink!*

Don’t you hate it when life gets in the way of blogging?…Moof, you do what you have to do. When you have time to blog then we will be here reaidng. My blog has also been neglected for awhile now, and so have all my good friends. Life happened and I seem to not have energy for both.
HAPPY BLOGIVERSAY!

Moof,
First of all, Congrats on making it to one year! I am so glad you started blogging. You are one of my very favorites ;-)
And hey, I had no idea you were a recovering BLOGGER blogger…hmm…
I also don’t know quite how you manage six blogs. Oh my. I cannot keep up with my one. I must admit, if I had over 1000 posts to read, I think I would feel so overwhelmed. I don’t envy that task I tell ya!
Good luck with the unpacking and getting settled back in at home!!! :)

I know I’m late but, HAPPY BLOGIVERSARY! Congratulations on one year of excellent blogging! :)
You got me thinking about my first year…and it’s today! Maybe I’ll post something about it. The best thing about blogging for me in the past year has been meeting great people like you.
