1 year ago today
It was 1 year ago today that I posted:
Hello Everyone,
I’ve been keeping an online journal since 2001 but it’s been somewhat hidden. I thought about just making that one a “public journal” but then I realized that wouldn’t be such a good idea. So why have a public one at all? Why not?
![]()
Anyway…I’ll try to update as much as I can. And for anyone reading …I only hope my life is worth reading…either way, It’s always nice to document.
365 days later and I couldn’t be more pleased with creating a public blog…
Thanks to anyone who has been reading and to the new online friends I’ve made just this year alone from blogging. A year goes by pretty fast! I’ve been pretty good at writing a little something each day…it may not be Earth Shattering stuff….but it’s been great fun for me
I heart Bloggers and Blogs 






My blog was private for just a few weeksn before I “came out” and went public, like you it was a great decision. Happy Blog Birthday!
Thanks Susan! It’s been a really great move for me…i really am happy to have met a whole new handful of bloggers…it’s like a cult ….i’m happy to be part of it

thanks! and hugs!
Congratulations buddy! Keep em coming!
Thanks…it’s been a real treat for me…hard to explain for those who don’t blog.
It’s great that you can get comments now. I’ve been reading your blog for quite a while, back when it was at Blogger!
Indeed, Happy Blog Birthday!

did you save some of the candles from Val’s birthday “blow-out” to put on your blogcake?
Blogcake! Hah! Gotta remember this date….Blogtober 10th. Enuff! Ohmiblog! I’m going blogzy! I’ve really blogst it. Stop me!! I’m getting a blogache. I need some vicoblog. Don’t post any more of my blogments.
Val back away from the blogcake! It appears you have a serious case of blogitis that if blogtheraphy doesn’t help then someone may have to perform a blogdectomy.
We heart you, too, Bob! Happy bloggy birthday!
thanks Angie!
Happy anniversary
Keep it up please 
will do Ralph…i’m now addicted…no stopping now
WEEE! Archives rule like that haha.
i’m glad I went through and deleted some of the old stuff…it was one of those “What was I thinkin’” moments
I’m Bloggin and right in the middle of a good thing, when all at once I wake up and it’s 10-11 again… HBD!
yeap..time travel happens online.
*eyes well up with tears* That was just so….beautiful.
i new the “I Heart Bloggers” would do it
Congrats on the Blog Birthday! It was a nice day when mine turned 1 as well. A feeling of accomplishment.
Thanks…i had a journal on livejournal.com since 2001 but I was really worried about making a public one…so far it’s been great.
oh…by the way…i loved your Lennon post *I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink* (huge Beatle fan here)
stop back any time and thanks for the comment
Happy Blog Birthday…..hopefully many more to come!
Thanks Mark … i hope to be around more years to come…even if i’m living as a homeless blogger in a cardboard box
Happy Blog-Day
Thanks neighbor!
I heart blogs too. They are SO much fun. Happy Blog Birthday!
hey thanks!
my blog is getting wrinkles now
Congrats on your 1 yr blogaversary!
It’s been a terrific experience for me, too. It’s a cozy way of bridging the distance between people all over the world, like expanded email only far more interesting! I think someone on my blogroll recommended stopping by your site, but I can’t remember who. Surfed here via Blog Explosion. Nice layout!
I love piano and music. Is that a pic of you?
Thanks for stopping in and be sure to send a super thanks to the person to sent ya my way
yeah…that’s me on the piano… there’s certainly a zillion pictures of myself on this whole website…probably way too many
…on the other hand…i like to use it as a scrapbook so whenever i get the chance i post photos 
Hope you stop back! hug!

Blogging can be so addictive. It’s amazing sometimes how I find people blogging. Sometimes even getting your butt beat on Battle of the Blogs can be something which brings new readers and friends.
Congratulations on your blog b-day, Bob.

Thanks for the nice words …see you in Blog-Space
