A few days back, on what would have been November 31st if there were indeed such a day, The Ranter’s Box happily crossed the six month mark in the blogosphere. And while the past week or so has been a bit of a blur, I couldn’t be more pleased to have achieved this milestone.
I consider myself incredibly blessed to have become acquainted with all of you and in many ways you are like this wonderful new family that is now a part of my life. It brings me great joy whenever I sign onto Blogger and discover new readers or see all of the many comments you regularly leave regarding my posts. And when it comes to recognition, you my lovelies, are beyond generous. Thank you for each and every one of the kind, funny and awesome awards you have bestowed upon my snarky arse.
Please know that while I adore blogging and hope that someday I am fortunate enough to find a way to make blogging a lucrative career, there are times where I will be missing in action for several days or so. This is only because my paying career sometimes requires every ounce of my time and energy -- and not because I have forgotten about you. So, I hope you will understand and continue to hang in there even when my posts occasionally become sporadic.
In the meantime, thank you for all of your bloggy love and may you enjoy an amazing and wonderful week!

Your paying career is very inconsiderate of your non-paying readers and fans! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary ...

ReplyDeleteIt's a bummer when real life gets in the way of Blogging, unless real life happens to be particularly fun that day (said without sarcasm for once).
Keep up the good work!

ReplyDeleteNothing makes me happier than when I get a notification that "The Empress" has commented on anything I've written! And it's only been 6 months? You mean my blog is older than your blog? Crazy! Happy Annivesary !
