I stumbled across your blog compledtely by ...Hello!<br />I stumbled across your blog compledtely by accident today and reading this post has really touched me. <br />I don't meant to sound like one of those typical "i'm so contemplative" types, but I always find it so perplexing that time just slips by without any one really noticing and it's only when you look back you realise how much has changed. <br />Reading your post about how it has been 8 years since you started blogging just brought back a lot of memories to me and it's made me realise that I keep looking for ways to capture those moments when you know something has changed in your life and I'm always enjoying how much the world alters around you whilst you stay completely oblivious in that moment. <br />And i'm sorry to ramble but i just wanted to say thank you, for whatever unconsciouss, indirect message you put out in your post that made me realise it's ok to look back on parts of your life and miss it - because it lets you know that life was good.<br /><br />Thank you, and all the best!Chescanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988729.post-51324345714548311722011-05-14T11:20:39.919-04:002011-05-14T11:20:39.919-04:00You inspired me to check, and my first blog post w...You inspired me to check, and my first blog post went up January 1, 2006. That was about 5 weeks after my second knee replacement, and I was looking at another 2 months of rehab before I could go back to work. So I don't have the longevity of either of you, but I've been around a while.<br /><br />We approach blogging differently. I don't try to produce an archive of my life, although some of it goes in there; I mostly wanted a place to rant, that being in the middle of the second Dubya administration. I've now converted my personal web site to WordPress and am doing some of it there, but Hedera's Corner is still my soapbox in Hyde Park.hederahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01696592301686568456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6988729.post-15907284152494932012011-05-14T01:56:51.945-04:002011-05-14T01:56:51.945-04:00I find the Search box on my blog really useful.

My first post was in October of 2001 on LiveJournal. I moved to Blogger on Geocities, now gone. I saved my archives, though. Moved to Movable Type in March of 2002, and all those archives moved over fairly cleanly to WP (damned ISO codes differed between the two platforms; I have question marks instead of apostrophes in a fair number of places).<br /><br />My blogroll has turned over a fair bit, although there are some there who are just as long in the tooth blogwise as you and I are.Linkmeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00576347754628145004noreply@blogger.com
