3 YEARS!!

Good Morning Campers!!

I cannot believe I forgot to mention in my last post that my 3 year anniversary of blogging was on April 17th! It is hard to believe that it's been 3 years..unfortunately the lady that inspired me to blog has now discontinued blogging for her own personal reasons...I usually give a shout out to her as she is responsible for this blogging addiction of mine so just in case you are reading this I miss you and hope you are doing okay and although I think you were wrong in shutting me out I am forever grateful to you!!

Blogging for me is a an outlet..not to mention I love to read and am curious by nature so it's the obvious choice for me...I get to peek into the windows of every ones lives on a daily basis..as I read your words I picture you doing the things you describe.... it's like reading a great book that allows you to interact with the characters...I don't write here as much as I used to...that is the downside of my curiosity..I spend so much time reading other blogs I run out of time to post!

Anyway thanks for a great 3 years..I miss the ease and comfort of J Land but am grateful we are all still here and I have met some incredible new bloggers in the process...

Write on people...write on!!

Happy 3 years. I do enjoy all the glimpses into others lives, as you have said. On blogger, I've found it even more fascinating....some very talented new people I've come across. I thought with the new job, I'd not read as much, but I feel the pull :-). No, you don't write as much, but you've kept your perspective & good sense of humor. ~Mary

I'm like you and love to blog. I still call it journaling...I've even had occassions that I need to look back in the archives to see when something happened. I've always kept a journal but now it is on line. Congrats on your 3 years!

Congrats on your 3 years. I don't know how long I've been blogging, but I'm right there with you.. enjoying the fact that we are still here even though AOL isn't!!! I had the same kind of scenario, with people and getting shut out. But we move on. Have a great day!

WOW, I never thought if it that way

the whole "Picturing you doing that as your eading the text"

Kinda makes me think now as I am reading the blogs I follow from now on!

Instead of just READING TEXT, maybe I should step back and picture whatever your the write is doing, as I am reading your Text!

Bit late but HAPPY BLOGGING ANNIVERSARY!

I can't say I was sorry to see aol blogs go. The only problem was so many people changed the name of their new blogs and it made them hard to find. You do get addicted, though I must say I haven't been so hot on posting either because I get so sidetrscked reading what others have to say.

Awaiting Orders. Not the fun time of the military.
Glad you made it 3 yrs. This seems to take up most of my retired time. HA! Sometimes I miss active duty, LOL (Paydays).
TAke care.

Cathy said...

Coincidence! Same thing happened to me, I was urged to journal (AOL) and that person soon just stopped her own writing. I doubt I ever will lol. Might take time away but always come back, probably because of ppl like you and everyone else who welcome this idea and participate in it so fully, honestly. So since I know you've enjoyed these few years I wish you many many more!

Happy Blogging Anniversary (belated).April 17 was a special day for me also. It was 37 years ago on that day I met my hubby. He was 23, I was 17 & still in HS!
Sorry to hear abt True Beauty being bitten. Did she need stitches? I hope not. That's quite a photo of Ryan & his girlfriend. I thought it was a tag pic for a minute. LOL
I envy you getting to go to the beach. I must have lived near an ocean in a former life, as I LOVE it so much and have only been a few times. LOL Jamaica of course has been my most fantastic beach experience, but Florida is right up there also. I've been landlocked all my life. I would give anything to be able to go to a beach whenever possible! Have a great week.
