Eleven Years ago...

Eleven Years ago...On January 14, 2009...
I started my blog...
I still can't believe  that much time has gone by.

My blog was going to be just  someplace where I posted a few pictures of my cards for some of my family and friends to see.

Never thought it would  still be around this long, or that I would have met (so to speak) so many friends on line. ( And In real life) by blogging (more about that later).

In the meantime this is the first card I posted...(Jan, 14, 2009)

I noticed that in 2009, I had posted on my blog 277 times!

Last year in 2019,  I had posted just 50 times on my blog.

Somewhere I had lost the zest for posting and being on my blog.

But,
This year I want to get that ZEST for my blog back again, and
start by trying to post more.

I think by looking back at some of my past posts and cards may help me to get my emthusiasm back again.  At least that is where I want to start.

If you have read down to this line...
Thank you so much for being with me in my blogging adventure, Thank you everyone who have ever visited and left me the sweet encouaging comments.  It means so much to me.

This year..."Good Things are going to happen!"
Blessings,
Jill

  5. So glad you have your blog and I have loved every post that I have seen. Yay for you to be doing it 11 years. I in the same situation a you - I blogged a lot when I started and when I was on a lot of design teams, but now I am lucky if I do 1 a month. I would like to blog more to so I may join you on your resolution!

    I found that I can post on SCS and copy the picture and whatever I typed so I may do that as my foundation and then add more on my blog.

    Congrats and many hugz

  7. Congratulations on your blog anniversary! Time really does fly doesn't it? I will go back and check the origins of my blog - I may have been at it longer than you, but we're still here and that's a good thing:) Love your pretty blast from the past, and I still remember when you taught me to do Iris Folding!

  9. A beautiful card. Wow, that is a long time. They say time flies when you are having fun. I guess we are having fun because time is going so fast. Happy we got to be online friends for so many years and then getting to meet last year. I wish I could make it back to Allentown this year, but the 14 hour trip is a rough one in such a short amount of time. I had a great time and am happy I got there last year.
