And when you got your first comment how did you feel? I found a new blog friend this week and commented on her post, then another and then another. I like reading back posts when I find a new person. It makes them more of a full personality to me. But it got me thinking; how did I start writing my blog? And when did I get my first comment (and who off?) My first post was called Angel Jem; From Mess to Less. Ho hum, that aim has never quite happened, has it? And my first commenter was the lovely Cherry Menlove. I'd been a blog-hopper for ages, had been leaving comments on others blogs and then decided I should probably dip my toe in and go for it. Cherry Menlove was one of my favourite reads, and I was delighted that she stopped by and commented! Back then (2007) there didn't seem to be that many blogs out there. Everybody knew Posy and Yarncraft and Cherry Menlove and Dottie Angel , and people popped up for a few years and then disappeared. Some blogged to promote...
I rarely drink tea so my medicine of choice is wine. Good rules to live by.
ReplyDeleteWine is only applicable after 6pm as long as I don't have to drive. That being said, if I were to turn to drink, I think it would either be pear cider or snowballs that caught me, one of which can make me really drunk and the other I would have to really work at!!!
Delete#6 - Mum's favorite - thanks for the memory!
ReplyDeleteIf all else fails, apply tea liberally. I have been known at times of crisis to just make the tea as my default action.
DeleteAbsolutely love all of them! Great! Number 2 made me LOL as I am currently surrounded the biggest mess of my life, tidying the remaining 'bits' (oh how I wish they were 'bits'!) of my scrapbooking supplies....love number 6: a cup of tea is, of course, the only decent refuge some days! And hits the spot like nothing else can...!
ReplyDeleteIf I can substitute number 6 for hot chocolate in winter and Diet Coke in Summer than I can be in with these. Well apart from number 2 - I will never be able to manage number 2!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the tea, there's not much a good brew can't fix. And there's wine for the other bits.
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying these posts, they're really thought-provoking. Being kind to everybody is absolutely the right thing to do - but sometimes easier said than done! xx
ReplyDeleteTea is a wonderful cure all!

Very good rules to live by indeed! Tea was never my thing until some years ago when I was having some troubles and now it is my go to soother and a wonderful thing it is too! xx
ReplyDeleteI am not a tea drinker but coffee has the same effect on my wellbeing. I do regularly make more mess than I can tidy. But at least I think I am kind even if I don't feel like it sometimes. x
ReplyDeleteYep, wise words there. If in doubt, put the kettle on and make a cup of tea, that's what I always do. xx
