In a couple of days, this blog turns 12 years old.
TWELVE!
I'm not even sure what to say about that. Out of all the years I've been blogging, this is they year I probably blogged the least. But damn, this year has been a doozie. Possibly the best and worst year I've had in a while.
Worst because of some personal family stuff going on that I'm not going to get into here.
Best because I got married to a really awesome dude (on our eight year anniversary!). Also because after many years of struggling with weight loss, I managed to lose 25 pounds. Which seems huge and yet insignificant at the same time (which is why I haven't said much about it, but if folks are interested in what I've been doing, let me know).
Blogging has changed SO much in the past few years, and I struggle with that change. Hell, I'm sort of digging in my heels to not be dragged down by that change. And I may just keep doing that. It's my corner of the web, and no ads or revenue means I'm gonna do whatever the hell I want. And if that means I only post once a month, so be it.
So let me just take this moment to say a huge THANK YOU to those of you that have stuck around through all this. I'm so glad you're here to celebrate 12 years with me!
Here's hoping that next year is a little bit more boring. I could really use some boring.
