Almost FOUR -- Bless me!


It's that time again!  Time for this hobbit to celebrate her blog-iversary.  And, in keeping with Acorn tradition, I'll be having a giveaway.  Because, as we all know, hobbits give presents on their birthdays.  And speaking of hobbits, can you believe I took the photo of this hobbit hole?  Yes, indeedy, I actually got to visit Hobbiton in New Zealand.  Eeep!  A Tolkien-geek dream come true!  But--back to the matter at hand.  I'm running a bit late this year concerning the "party business". 

Wow, tempus does fugit, heh heh.  Four years ago, I started blogging as a creative outlet.  It really has been an adventure.  This year I have had the opportunity to pursue another dream--devoting more of my time to messing about with paint.  Hence I haven't posted as much.  But through Curious Acorn I've met such excellent and admirable hobbits, er, I mean, such fascinating people, and made some genuine friendships to boot.  So, unlike Bilbo, I'm not planning to disappear.  


In a few days time, I'll get back to you, my lovely visitors, on the details of this year's anniversary giveaway celebration.!

    Happy blogiversary! I'm so glad that you chose this particular creative outlet; our 'virtual friendship' has enriched the past four years and I hope there will be lots more to come.

    What if you had never started blogging and I had never met you? I can't begin to imagine. Cause you are the bomb-diggety, Truly.

    You make me happy, and so does your blog! Makes sense, since that's how I know you:) (It's fairly late Saturday night, and obviously get a bit punchy at this hour)
