Happy Anniversary Aimless Ramblings


Today is the one year anniversary of my blog.  I can’t believe another whole year has passed.  I really  think it’s only been three months. 

Funny Confession Ecard: I'm well on my way to getting absolutely nothing done today.I lead a pretty normal life. Okay maybe not so normal because I am living in an RV and not in a brick and mortar house but there are 3.1 million of us doing that.  Got that stat on MSN. There is not a great deal of drama or chaos.  Most days just blend one into another and before I realize it another week has passed with nothing to mark the passage except for the marks on the calendar and a couple of new wrinkles.  I am not complaining.  I lead a charmed life. I am healthy, have a great husband, daughter, grandchildren, family and friends - God has been and continues to be very good to me.  The sameness, however, does not provide very interesting fodder for blog posting.  Like the post’s name it is all a bunch of Aimless Rambling and I am amazed at the number of people who stop by to read the blah, blah, blah. 

Thank you for welcoming me and I hope that I add either a laugh or a little something that makes it worth your while stopping by.  I’ve enjoyed this and am so glad I accidentally came upon this community.  You all provide me with some great insights, some laughs, some tears, some head shaking but most of all friendship and acceptance.

A special thank you goes out to PK and Fantasy Friday for getting me involved in writing this blog and the stories.  The stories seem to have taken on a life of their own.  I wrote the very first story I've ever written last Thanksgiving,  PK posted in on FF and urged me to write more.  I've been doing it ever since.  Actually, in light of that, I know she is looking for new stories so some of you gifted writers (and yes most of you are gifted writers) pen some stories and send them for posting on FF.

Again, thank you for your friendship and see you later for more Aimless Ramblings.

PS: It's also my birthday - guess what that means beside being another year older.

  1. Happy Birthday, Sunny :D
    I haven't been here for a year, and your blog has been here since I came. It feels like an institution.
    I want to thank PK for encouraging you to write your fiction, also - because it is a gift to all of us.
    Happy Anniversary and Birthday - Sunny -
    You're not getting older, my dear - you are indeed, getting better.
    love ya,
    lillie

    1. Thank you so much Lillie. It's been a blast and I am so glad you think AR is an institution and that I don't have to be institutionalized. LOL.

      It was a great day all around.

  2. Happy Birthday sunnygirl! I agree with Lillie - thanks to PK for encouraging you to write - your stories are definitely a gift.

    You are like a fine wine - never older, always better!

  3. Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary.
    Does that mean a double dosis of the usual Birthday gift?
    Is it a year already? I am quite sure those first ramblings were indeed a few month ago.
    But now, that I think of it, you were still living in that mortar and brick house. You've done some mileage since then, so some time must has passed.
    One thing is sure, you did not get a year older, younger maybe. Don't let other people and mirrors tell you otherwise.
    Keep on rambling, keep on writing. We love everything you write.

    1. Thank you Ronnie. Can't believe a year goes so fast. I'll keep up the stories as long as my imagination keeps giving me ideas. Thanks but I don't think I can take credit. The stores just seem to come to me. Glad you enjoy them.

    1. Thank you SNP for your kinds words. It will kind of be a birthday weekend. Daughter and SIL and hubby and I celebrated tonite but the grandkids will help me celebrate on Sunday with another birthday dinner. The good part about that one is that I don't have to get a year older.

  23. Happy Birthday, Sunny! Congratulations on your First Blogiversary! I saw you commenting around the blogs last Fall, and saw your blog launch post, but was still finding my way around, lurking, absorbing, assessing, making friends in my mind.

    You've painted such a warm, good, fun, intelligent and creative picture of yourself. I may never know what you look like in person, but I would recognize your spirit anywhere. It's been my privilege to read your blog and stories, and to learn about your life and outlook. You've been very kind and welcoming to me, and I truly appreciate you.
