Since I began blogging, I have had the great pleasure of meeting some amazing people. Some of them have become lifelong friends, other are email buddies that I drop a quick email to a few times a year.
Anywho, I had stopped blogging for a bit after my last blog became a place for people to personally attack me and my family. It takes a lot for a person to get online everyday and reveal themselves to strangers. I, unlike many others, blog out in the open. I am not hiding behind an alias… what you get is what you see, and it has always been that way for me and sometimes I have to wonder if maybe I reveal too much of myself. But then I get to thinking and realize that in order for me to stay true to the purpose of me blogging, I can’t be coy about things.
When I decided to start this blog, I was very apprehensive. Doing the domain under my very own name was something I thought long and hard about, and (obviously) decided to take the chance. So far, it’s been nothing short of amazing. The people who read this, you all are so awesome. The support and blossoming friendships I have developed in these past 7 months have been wonderful!!! It’s made this all so much fun and for that I thank you. Thank you to all of you who read, and comment, and even those who lurk.
THANK YOU!!!!
So, with that said, in the next year, I plan to stalk as many of you as I can by going on my own Tour de Monique. I’m going to get an RV and travel around the country meeting my fellow bloggers. We’ll sit down at a Starbucks and have some coffee (even though I am not much of a coffee drinker) or take a walk through Wal-Mart. Whatever we do, I’ll make it fun. Of course, it won’t happen anytime soon since I am saving up all my pennies so that next year (around this time) I can move into my very own dream home. (Something I’ll talk about that in another post.) But now you all know, I will eventually be coming to a town near you. And don’t even think about turning me down! That means you too Miss Angelika!
