One year ago today

the "Sea Witch" became a member of the blogging community.  Can you believe it?   I am often torn between feeling like I just arrived here, full of the wonder and delight that captures your imagination with so many talented, caring, funny and artistic people all connected to each other by a simple communications path or I feel like I have always been here and this has been my cyber ocean filled with treasure all at my fingertips.

So as the song goes, "Let's start at the very beginning...a very good place to start" and link to my first post.
http://musingsofaseawitch.blogspot.com/2009/04/and-she-blogs.html  There are no photos, no links, just narrative.  I must admit I was somewhat intimidated by the concept.  Who would read what I had to say and  and why?  What could I offer to the visitor and what would I gain from those places I visit?  The gifts of friendship and shared creativity by all of you is immeasurable. Because of all of you I am a woman of wealth

With my second post, I learned to add photos and links and offered up a little bit about me.  

So do I honor that first post one year ago by offering this post without photos and links? NAAAHHHH!  I like visuals too much and links are interesting side roads begging you to step off the beaten path (or post) and try a different route. 


So thank you all for your visits, those who follow, those who share their creativity, those who participate in my giveaways but mostly thank you for your marvelous friendships.  Sea Witch

Your first blog is "fancier" than my most recent one. You blog good, lady. I strive to measure up. Blogging is certainly interesting. I get to meet special people and witches, too. Congrats!

yeah! Happy Blog-aversary! Hasn't the year just flewn by? I've been blogging for a little over a year and it went so quickly. Before I started blogging on a regular basis, I actually thought I had nothing to talk about - how naive ;-)

You are right, blogging has given me more friends in various places - different opinions and outlooks on life - it's made my life more rich and I'm so thankful for my blogger friends. I really wish I could afford one day to make the rounds and visit every one of you... just to meet for a cup of coffee - nothing fancy! Wouldn't that be fun? What a post that would be!

Happy blogging and here's to many more :-)

Happy Anniversary! I certainly enjoy reading what you have to say and your pictures are inspirational. I love images of mermaids and ocean creatures - this California sea-beastie is stuck in an Arizona desert. So here's to another year swimming in the cyber ocean - Diver Down!
