Numbers of Reasons Why I Blog

I found a post I wrote 2 years ago called 1000 reasons why I blog, and well no I didn't actually share 1000 reasons, instead I shared numbers relating to my blogging experience.  I found it a lot of fun to read and so wanted to copy that post (some things are the same) with some updates for 2014.

2- The number of kids I had when I started my blog

3- The number of years we have lived at our current home (a record for us)

6- (well 5 3/4) years I have been blogging 

9ish- different looks I have had on my blog

11- The number of different of homes I have lived in in my lifetime (10 of which are in the past 15 years)

28- the number of posts with the word "poop" in it 

62- Months that I have done Ten Things to Smile About

63- Number or recipes I have shared on my blog  (this only went up 3 in two years)

613- Number of followers I currently have

2,031- Number of Days I have been a blogger 

24,069- the number of comments I have received on my blog (as of yesterday) 

And one more very important number

13- number of years since Eric and I married for time and eternity. 
Many consider 13 to be an unlucky number, but this year it definitely is not.  There is nothing unlucky about the amazing man my husband is, how he works so hard to provide for us, loves us, makes us all laugh and the fact that he is my best friend.
We have had our share of challenges and trials, things that either could tear us apart or in the end build us closer together; thankfully we worked our butts off to make sure it was the later.  I cannot imagine my life with anyone else.

To my husband, I love you.  I am so glad I said yes.  

As I was going through my old posts, I came upon this video that I made 5 years ago that tells a little of how we met.  Enjoy!

  3. Happy anniversary! P.S I was going through my Spam folder looking for something and noticed my comment emails don't seem to be getting to you, they bounce back as undeliverable, just FYI.

    1. That is weird- and yes I was just playing catch-up and noticed that I am not getting an e-mail with your comment, usually anytime anyone comments I get an e-mail. Your comments are publishing though, so it is really strange that the e-mails aren't coming through :(
