2nd Anniversary Post

Well I have made it through another bloggy year. I recently discovered the 'stats' page that tells me how many visitors I get. I have had a total of 7,786 visitors since I started. The most popular post is the Lizard Cake, searched mainly via google nearly 400 times, followed by Margaret Atwood poetry with a mere 250 views. Having the year listed like this feels like I have done very little and I should resolve to learn something new this year:

147 posts

298 comments

54 followers

60 something books read

some bad poetry written (but not posted here)

4 hats and 3 scarves knitted

rather more unfinished knitting projects (including one from the previous year)

three pairs of felted slippers, but not much else

practically no spinning

cakes ... mainly chocolate

much less visiting

one young adult left home

two rats deceased (Hazel and Scarlett, not ones caught by the cat)

one house move

one new job (but very much like the old job)

zero new babies (phew!) (though last year's is getting cuter every day)
