How could I have forgotten my own poor blog's birthday.. Ho, yhi,yhi... What a bad blog mother I've been... There's no excuse. My blog was one year and two months old on Sunday.
On Monday August 2nd, 2010 after much groaning and kicking, my little blog Of Petals and Wool was born as naked as a new born baby and feeling pretty small and alone in this big world of Blogger.
Sorry little blog, I'll make it up to you by having a give away but don't worry I won't give you away. Just give me a couple of days to sort this out.
This was the birth announcement and like Genesis, the subsequent posts were named accordingly, The Second Day, The Third Day etc.
ON THE FIRST DAY
Today my blog was born. I finally just did it, Thanks Deb. Finding a name was a bit of a challenge but with persistence I came up with a name that was available on blogspot. Of Petals and Wool is about two of my passions, oh, I have many more passions than I have time to indulge but for the sake of a name it will suffice. My flower gardens with its millions of petals and my rug hooking are the main ones at the moment.
At the present, I'm only getting familiar with navigating my new blog and hopefully I will be more comfortable as I discover its little secrets.
It's almost time to go check on my new born bull calf and feed the other calves and do my barn chores.
Oh Julia,Much like the birth of a blog Today I couldn't get on your blog today til now. Blogger awww!

Happy belated! Your humble little blog isn't so humble or little anymore is it? Reflecting on the friends made via this 'humble vehicle' is such a blessing...
ReplyDelete*I need to clear up some confusion. Although I wish it were true, I am not a grandmother yet. My post picture shows my 16 year old photographer daughter with her subject. The link to Erin's blog shows the pictures that she took of a new baby in the home school group! Just thought I'd better straighten that out. ;)
Blessings, Debbie
Happy Blog Birthday Julia!! Keep those posts coming!!
ReplyDeleteHappy 'Blog Birthday'! the things I'm learning through blogging---I'll pay more attention to time. I live most of my days in 'kyrotime', that means suspended time in creativity. Thank you Julia for all the kind, positive comments that you give to my posts, I really enjoy reading your blog. You're so funny, with an infectious humor the way you explain everyday life, I find myself laughing out loud :-O
ReplyDeleteJulia,

It's so uplifting to come here and get the scoop!
I want to thank-you too for being such a loyal commenter on my blog as well! You are the best!
Here's to another year of good blogging and great friendships!
