This year has been such a shit-fest, sorry no other way to describe it, that I am not surprising myself that I am already thinking about next year.
Usually I hold on to each year until the last possible moment, but this year I have my two new calendars ready to go, I have plans to buy a non-officey desk diary .. hey next year is retirement year for us both, four months in the office do not need a diary. Instead of officey I am thinking bloggy, there you go ... spellcheck hates me!! 😄
At the moment I am thinking of moving away from Challenges on the blog, moving towards day to day simple living as it used to be on my Smaller Life blog. A little bit more homey, days outey, but still booky and foody. Continuing to annoy spellcheck with a gleam in my eye. 😎
I was looking at the stats on the blog the other day and over the course of the past couple of weeks have watched the Follower numbers going up and down with gay abandon. What is it about the numbers 87, 88 and 89 that leaves the little total going up and down like a lift with a mind of its own. I have no problem at all with fewer Followers, but being under the magic 100 does mean that I have the option of making the blog open only to those Followers, it's something that I am seriously thinking about the way the internet is going these days.
After all with over sixteen years of regularly posting on my various blogs under my belt, I have a beautifully, wonderful core of regular readers, blogging buddies and Followers that have put up with my comings and goings, my blog hopping and life changing ways and still for reasons best known only to themselves stay with me.

I like your blog(s) because over the years they have had a glorious mixture of challenges which sound slightly crazy when you start them but wonderful as they unfold, days out and comments about life as they occur and a serendipitous mixture for the rest. Just keep on blogging!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I appear as a follower on most of the blogs I read regularly; I add blogs to my feedly app as I find them, so that I never miss a new post!
ReplyDeleteEverything that Frugally Challenged said, 😘😘😘
ReplyDeleteBrain currently mush, not very articulate . . .
I'm not sure if I'm on your list of followers but I look for your blog everyday! Joan from Dublin
ReplyDeleteBeen following your moves and changes and challenges forever so of course I'll keep reading although if you turn into private then I won't as I read blogs via the 'Blogs I read' on my blog and wouldn't find you elsewhere. I avoid all internet socials except some local Facebook groups, blogs and watching a few you tubers now and again - keeps me up to date without getting into any weird or nastiness.
ReplyDeleteI have been following you for years, way before the small holding in Wales, miss it when you don’t post, I do hope you include me in your followers please. As we are all looking forward to next year for some reason or other, happy new year 🥳
