ING Things

I've reached a milestone today...it's the 10th anniversary of this joyful puttering blog. I continue to marvel at...and be grateful for those of you who follow along. Some of you have been here from the start...others have joined in somewhere along the way.  

I'm so grateful for the kind words of encouragement and support through email or blog comments. They mean the world to me and remind me why I show up here every day.

The very first post that Clarke helped me with back in 2015 was titled Dreaming Out Loud...and I've been doing a lot of ING things ever since. Here are just a few:

collecting, creating, and connecting

puttering, painting, and puzzling

looking, laughing, and listening

reflecting, refocusing, and wrapping

gardening, grieving, and giggling

decorating, doodling, and digitizing

crafting, collaging, and coloring

felting, fusing, and, finding

painting, pausing, and paying attention

stitching, storytelling, and celebrating

My life is full of joyful abundance!

I used to check out my stats on a regular basis...but I don't anymore because it just doesn't matter. But I did check out my numbers on this milestone anniversary and here are just some of my 10 year stats as reported by Blogspot:

3,597 comments

Thank you so much for making it to the end of this post...and for following along! It's not over till it's over!
