17 years ago today, on April 10, 2007, I began blogging.

Though I don’t post as often or consistently as I have in the past, I am still grateful to have this space to share and process life.

On past blogoversaries I have shared things that I have learned from blogging and 12 years ago, since my blogoversary fell on the second Tuesday of April, I chose “Blogoversaries” to be the Time Warp topic for that month.

11 Years ago, I decided to keep it simple and choose one word to describe each year of my experience blogging. I’ve continued to add another word every year since.

Today I am adding my word for this year.

Year 17 (2023-2024): (Un)learning

Year 16 (2022-2023): Cycle-breaking

Year 15 (2021 – 2022): Untamed

Year 14 (2020 – 2021): Persistence

Year 13 (2019 – 2020): Boundaries

Year 12 (2018 – 2019): Reflecting

Year 11 (2017 – 2018): Priorities

Year Ten (2016 – 2017): Awareness

Year Nine (2015 – 2016): Accountability

Year Eight (2014 – 2015): Coaching

Year Seven (2013 – 2014): Accepting

Year Six (2012 – 2013): Living

Year Five (2011 – 2012): Moving

Year Four (2010 – 2011): Adjusting

Year Three (2009 – 2010): Believing

Year Two (2008 – 2009): Healing

Year One (2007 – 2008): Hoping

Thank you so very much for being a part of my journey as readers, fellow bloggers, family and friends over the past 17 years!

Happy blogoversary, my almost bloggy twin! I am about a month behind you.

What comes to mind for me is “figuring myself out.” And “meeting terrific people along the way.”

Wishing you a good year ahead in all your spaces.
