A year (or two) in reflection

I just realized that my blog officially passed it’s one year mark last month. 

Yay, me!

Actually, I really am proud of myself for hanging in there this long.  I started working on Verdanta about a year before I started blogging about it.  At that time, I had developed a reputation with my husband of reading a new book, getting all excited about it, making big plans, and then… nothing.  (Real estate, anyone?)  Verdanta started the same way, but this time my husband called me out.  He told me to show him the numbers. 

Of course to show him the numbers, I had to figure out exactly how to find the numbers.  That led me to Score, which got me going with my business plan (Thanks, Jim Newman!), and the rest, well, you can go back and read my blog from the beginning for the rest!

My husband and I treat our marital anniversary with about the same degree of fanfare.  The day after, or the week after, one of us will say, “Oh, hey!  Happy Anniversary!”  And that’s pretty much that.  My mom says, “Why make a big deal?  If it’s good, there will be more.  If it’s not, why would you want to celebrate it?”  I guess that’s where I get it from.  My husband, well, he’s just lousy at remembering dates! 

For those of you who’ve been with me for a while, thank you!  Your support and encouragement are part of the reason I’m still around.  For those who just joined us, welcome!  And God willing, we’ll be together for another anniversary next year!
