I hope you enjoy your visit. If you're looking for something specific, check out the links to posts by category in my sidebar and down a ways. They'll assist with tracking down different types of posts found on each of my three blogs. You might also enjoy checking out the other sites: Sacred Ruminations, Blog Rolls, Bling & Blurbs, and Happily Retired Gal.

I hope you'll look around & leave comments
then visit me at my new blog ...

Giraffe Journal

and/or website ... Labyrinth Journal
both self-hosted at WordPress
where I publish as myself
rather than under a
pseudonym.

I've not had much time for posting or blog visits, but if you're interested I hope you'll find time to check out my new blog, Giraffe Journal or my Labyrinth Journal website ... both self hosted at WordPress.

Thanks for your visit and have a delightful day ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

HF#79 - Reflecting on eleven & a half months ...

Make Time for Small Reflections
SkyWatch#15/HF#80 is at Sacred Ruminations.
According to the
countdown widget I will be
celebrating my ...

Get your own free Blogoversary button!

Hard to imagine
I've been blogging DAILY here
(plus 3 to 4 times

weekly at Sacred
Ruminations
) ... and have learned
a great deal about

many things. Review-
ing my early posts on both
blogs, I wish that I

had taken 'screen shots'
of the way things started out
to compare with the

way things look today.
Visual changes obscure
just how 'plain' both blogs

started out ... and my
lack of knowledge concerning
this 'virtual' world.

I am grateful to
each & every one of you
who assisted me

along this journey ...
and the visitors who leave
comments & who 'lurk'

thus I offer this
seasonal 'Thank You' found at
Photobucket!

It sure is hard to imagine when you first started out Virginia. You are en entirely different site now. I can hardly believe it. What you have done in such a year is truly amazing. I celebrate with you sweetie....you are a dynamo! And....thank you so much for the many sweet gestures and awards you have sent my way over these 11 1/2 months....I so appreciate your thoughtfulness and all your help too. Hugs, Joy

Good Morning, Storyteller,

The autumn thank you graphic is lovely also.

Hope you have a great day today. :)

How exciting to be reaching your blogging anniversary. It has been fun to follow your journey.

I love your thought today. I am really seeing now how in any situation I can make choices that will make it better or choices that will make it worse.

My blogavesary is in 9 days. It will be one year for me too. My circle of friends has grown and the topics I blog about are a little different --- but not much else has changed. Evolution for me is coming much more slowly. :)

Grandy said...

Happy Friday Storyteller! I'll be looking forward to your blogversary! ;)

Momisodes said...

Wow! Less than 2 weeks away :) It's amazing how quickly time has gone by this year.

That would have been a good idea now wouldn't have it. I wish I had screenshots too. I do have some/most of my old headers. . .:)

Roan said...

Only 11 more days. Woo Hoo! I know about the changes. My first blog started out plain, and I finally learned how to fancy it up a bit. BJ

Mary said...
