J&S

As I mentioned before, my 5th blogiversary happened to fall on the day some of my favorite bloggers were in town to promote their first book. I like to think it was the Universe’s anniversary present to me.

And the Universe’s present to Ellen was… food poisoning. Don’t be fooled by the smile in the picture below, the girl was not feeling well. But she said if it were anything else besides her wedding, she would have bailed. She relayed this information to Sherry as I was telling John it was my 5th blogiversary. The conversation went something like this:

Me, “It’s my 5th blogiversary today!”

John, “Wow, congrats!”

Me trying to joke, “Yeah, I get like twelve hits a day so…”

John, apparently ignoring my impressive readership statistics or simply blown away by them, “Wow, 5 years!”

What’s funny (or not) is their blog and my blog were started for similar reasons – to document the changes/modifications in our first homes, as seen in this post from when my blog was just 4 days old. They stayed true to their original purpose and now they get like 5 million hits a month and have a 2 book publishing contract. And I sorta went the life-blog route where I post anything from crafts/DIY to tributes to wedding recaps to personal heartache. But it works for me and I love my handful of readers very much. 😉

On the way back to the car, Ellen was like “Oh my god, I think I wrote I would love them always in their book. And something about BFFs.” Haha. I nearly wrote “Stay cool” but wasn’t sure if that was just an Ohio yearbook think and went with something totally original about being awesome? Oh well. It was fun.
