One Year Anniversary

It was one year ago today that I started to blog. It has been a fun and interesting experience. To date, I have received on average, 16 hits a day. Lately that has increased, but in the beginning things were slow because I was only starting. The 'hottest' day was 170 hits. I have had visitors from virtually every country in the world. I can find out how they discovered me and it is usually through a Google Search. To date, my post on Gerbera Daisies has been by far the most popular post by which people find Terryography. Hardly a day goes by when someone has not found me through that post.

It has been a fun and creative process to come up with something every day. Sorry if it gets a little repetitious but some issues are on my mind more than others. I have so appreciated the comments from so many of you. I am always surprised when I 'bump into' people who say they are reading my blog. I had no idea and think that now they know more about me than I would care to have them know. I have been toying with the idea of starting another blog that gets more personal. I find it helpful to express my thoughts in writing as it forces to me to define them more clearly. Another blog would explore issues such as faith. That is such a huge part of my life that I would never run out of material.

One more comment is that I usually am about three or four days ahead of myself. That is, I schedule the posts so if they seem at times to be behind the times, that is why. For example, I wrote this one on the 20th. So, if you heard that I died and the posts are still coming, the announcement will not have been a rumour. But then again, Mark Twain commented at one time that the announcement of his death had been greatly exaggerated. Maybe he was a blogger too.
