Six years ago I made my first post, and today is my 16,047th post. Who knows how many more I have in me.
Why do I blog? To be honest, I’m not sure anymore. I like to connect with people. I like to expose people to things they may normally not be exposed to, or try to bring a different perspective to them. I like share things I find interesting. I like to make people think. And I guess I like knowing that I can be a little escape from everyone’s workday for a few minutes, and knowing that some of things I share are talked about at the dinner table or with loved ones.
Today is also my dearly departed mother’s birthday, she would have turned 63. As I do every year, I choose to make only one post, and ask all of you to honor her by finding a magazine or book to read. Mom was a voraciously proud reader, and I would appreciate it if you would use the time you normally would use checking out this blog and spend it reading as a favor to me.
Thanks for taking time out of your day to spend it with me.
Grace,
Geeding
there is no better remembrance of MotherGeeding than you writing blog posts; at least that way you assure some people are reading something every time you write. quite the tribute, IMO.
so here is to remembering Mother with much love on her birthday…and happy birthday BON…here is to many more!
Keith, glad you are back home. Warm hugs and much love to you today. ( and every day ).
Since I don't have "Sweet Cheeks" today I will definitely honor your mom by reading something! I'm "in the mood" for a good book……….so this is the perfect activity for this day.
Thanks Keither!! May God Bless your Mother, and truly enjoy reading and your thoughts.
Congrats Keith! And thank you.
I have been following your blog for most of its existence, and I thank you! My days wouldn't be the same without your posts. I finished a book on my way in to the office today, and have the next one waiting – I will dig into the first chapter right now.
Cheers,
Shauna
Happy Birthday to BON. May it have many more.
I'll do some reading today as well.
Wishing you the very best, BON. May you be around for many more years!
Am sending warm wishes for your Mother.
Only 6 years? I could have sworn I've been reading it longer than that.
You've certainly succeeded in achieving your blog's mission statement. Those are all the reasons I read the blog—several times a day.
There is not a day in which I don't devote at least 1/2 hour to reading a book. Today I'll give you an hour
Congratulations on your 6th year. i have been visiting your blog for only 6 mos. and I have to say you have some very interesting and enlightening post. At least they are appealing to me.
I wish you much joy in life.
Thanks for blogging.
Congrats! I have been reading your blog for years, and I have no idea how I made my way here the first time… but regardless, I'm glad I did!
