For the next year my blog will be temporarily veering off course. Over the past years I’ve shared my sorrows, my joys, my poetry, my art and photography, and my books. In the sharing of all the little bits and pieces of me, I hope I’ve managed to inspire and or entertain. I also hope it has given you an opportunity to get to know me as I have gotten to know and love so many of you. As a small thank you:
Beginning tomorrow, I plan to highlight a different blogging buddy of mine everyday for the next 365 days. This will only be a small sampling of all the wonderful bloggers I’ve met and follow, but it’s a beginning.
Because I will be posting everyday, these will be very short posts. A link to the blog of the day and a few sentences about what they’ve brought to my life.
A Very Happy, Peaceful, and Prosperous New Year to all of you! ❤ ((HUGS))
Great plan, Elizabeth. I just finished a story on two great bloggers myself, and I found it so satisfying. But one every day? You have me beat, hands down!
Wishing you and your family a healthy, productive and rewarding new year.
I am so glad to know you through your blog, and I look forward to reading everything you write in 2015.
Yes, but your posts are always so generous and thought provoking. Mine are just rambles and my posts will be very brief on my fellow bloggers. They must be or I’d never be able to post one each day. But hopefully it will introduce everyone to a few different bloggers. Kind of like a meet and greet party. lol. Thank you for stopping by and have fun New Year’s Day. 🙂
I’m looking forward to your new thoughts too, Mark. I promise to try to cut down on using the ‘so’ word to begin sentences. lol. Have a fabulous New Year! 🙂
Woah ! I hope your new style of blogging will be complimentary…….or not !
Happy New Year dear friend. I hope 2015 will be special for you. Hugs. Ralph xoxoxox ❤ 😀
Thank you so much! I found your comment in the spam folder or I would have answered sooner. I’m sorry and hope you have a lovely and happy New Year as well. 🙂
Change is good and encouraging. Good to learn that you are choosing to shift your blog’s focus, Elizabeth. All the best with its new direction and for you in 2015!
Such a good idea but what hard work it will be! I look forward to discovering new bloggers! Have a Happy New Year! Health and happiness to you and your family.
Thank you so much, Clare. Hopefully I’ll be able to keep the posts brief enough to continue for the entire year. I’m sure going to give it my best shot. Have a healthy, happy and inspired New Year! 🙂 xo
😀 You always manage to make me feel good, Jill. I hope your new year is filled with every single little thing you desire except one. After all we have to have something to dream about and wish for. 😉 ❤
Elizabeth, what a loving and generous thing to do. You are very lovely. A Happy New Year to you and all your loved ones and here’s to a sparkly 2015. ❤
