How oh how could I almost miss posting on this historic day? I mean, it isn’t like you haven’t all been waiting to hear from me on this day. (I know you have!) Forgive me for posting so late.
Yes, today is a special day. Today is the day someonething very important to me. (And yes, let’s face it, important to everyone someone well, just me.)
Happy Blogiversary, Java Diva (aka Mommy Needs Coffee)!!!
(Yes, I know after a year I need to commit to one or the other as far as names go. I am just so indecisive.)
And for old times’ sake, here is a link to my first post ever
Excuse me while I get mushy, okay? I am taking this time to tell you all something. From the heart.
I can’t believe how much I have gained by having this little ol’ blog. I have met some incredible people over the year! Friends that I will get together with and have our much talked about dinner together. Friends who have sent things to me simply because I mentioned I enjoyed it. Friends who have been there to talk to late into the night when I am in a place where I need someone to talk to and be objective. I have learned how to become a better writer by following the leads of some amazing bloggers. I have met people who have had a big impact on my future as far as getting published goes. In fact, I cannot name one area of my life that has not been touched positively by the amazing people I have met through this blog. (And if you are wondering if I am talking about you, trust me…I am.) I love you guys. I really do! Thanks for being the amazing people you’ve been and for coming back time after time to read this stuff I put up here. It means more to me than I really know how to say. (Which, let’s face it, for a writer, that does kind of suck, ya know.) Anyway, you all ROCK my world! Thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
