One year blog anniversary

staycation therapy

According to my blog's archive, today, July 17, is my blog's one year anniversary. Occasions like these aren't that a big deal to me these days but I like to make a note of it in a blog post just to mark the day, I guess. So here's some messages to my blog (I don't have a nickname for my blog so I'll just call her PC for postcard):

01 - Dear PC, thank you for keeping me as your owner. Mostly, I'm just glad I haven't been blocked by you as I heard some bloggers can't get to their blog because they are somehow blocked for no reason. It's kind of you to not do that to me, so thank you.

02 - I'm sorry for not having a sidebar so you can show off badges and stuff but you might be glad of that because at least, there are no mess for you to clean up. And frankly, I don't like to clean up messes either.

03 - I'm slightly sorry for not posting more often as I sort of promise you that I would. I mean, I even had 12 drafts all set but none had made it even though I'm sure readers would like at least one of them but I had doubts. And I didn't want to post something and then revert to draft like I did a few posts.

04 - I'm glad you didn't go wonky on me when I try to alter your template. I know I should update you to a more up-to-date template but why change something when it's not broken? So maybe you'll have to be struck with this old template for a while as I see no reason to change.

05 - I'm a little sorry that I keep changing the header but that's the way I refresh you so you wouldn't look stale and I wouldn't feel stale looking you. I know I'm a pain when it comes to headers but at least,  I don't change it as often as my previous blogs.

06 - Thank you, PC, for allowing me to be so random in my blog content (probably not true since I do post the same old things) and being so random with my posting schedule. Sometimes I think having some type of structure for content or schedule for posting is just a stressful pressure to post and write content on time. I do try to post on the same days of the week at least but thank you for allowing me to do what I want even though I sometimes don't know what that is.

07 - Thank you for letting me keep this blog kind of a quiet, little paradise for people who just loves to blog about something even if they sometimes seems like nothing. Happy anniversary PC, my lovely blog.  I hope we'll be happy together for a couple more years. (At least, I think so today.) Happy anniversary!

Note: The above art is one that I completed today so I thought it would be nice to share something new. I don't do vacations but I do sort of take them when I'm at home so the title of this piece, staycation therapy, seems perfect and it also describes most of my summers and no, I do not own a unicorn float or a cat.
