first milestone

May 29, 2009 By 4 Comments

100comments

Yesterday 74 Lime Lane reached its first milestone ~ 100 comments. I have been so thrilled at how welcoming the blogging community has been and that people take the time to comment. I hope I have been able to reciprocate some of that joy.

I have previously mentioned this but I am amazed at how blogging has changed my life ~ organising my time better and priming the creativity flow. Not to mention the amount of joy and happiness I get from it ~ and all the other great blogs I find every day.

A little shout out to two corners of the www ~ Kirsty and Pip ~ whose memes (Creative Space and Words and Pictures respectively) were part of what spurred me into blogging because I wanted to join in the fun and have helped get me into the blogosphere.

Out of interest, the 100th comment was Rachel on this post which is kinda nice because she has been commenting pretty much from the start and has been a great encouragement. She also has a new Etsy shop here
