2 years!

Rate: 39 Flag

It is my “Blogiversary” today
Two years! Can you believe it? Goodness me!
I’m not the kind to throw a huge par-tay
I’d much prefer to do something low key

Today I'll mark with simple verse; a rhyme
And smile for all the blessings I have found
In this abode where I spend treasured time
Where writers and poets and friends abound

Yeah, 'twas two years ago I joined OS
This anniversary is just as sweet
You're all so good to me I must profess
Just being here with you is still my treat!

I didn't want to let today pass without a note. A note particularly of THANK YOU to you for being here and supporting me over the last two years.

I also want to offer a note of apology. I am conscious of not reading and commenting as much as I normally would. Unfortunately, there is quite a deal on my plate at the moment. I do hope you will bear with me while I chew my way through it.

Much love to all.

Kate
Happy Blogiversary, dearest Katie,
For your presence blessed are we!
To more anniversaries to celebrate
In happiness and best of health!
I'm so glad you're here, Kate. ~r
You started just before I did. How lucky I am to have my entire time here blessed by your lovely poetry.
Happy Blogiversary!!!!
rated with love
Happy Day and congrats.
HUGGGGGGGGGG
Congrats my good friend. Time flies. I think my third year is tomorrow and I had forgotten. I'll check. I hope to write Congrats again next year too!
That's the good thing about blogs Kate.
we can comment when we read, and answer them when we got time.
Happy 2 dear.
and don't worry. We all understand dear. Life gets in the way some days...
Happy Anniversary Kate! I'm so very glad you're here.
You are one of the best things thats happened for me here on OS these past two years. Wishing I could help you with your "plate" but know I'm always sending love and support.
You're a treat for us, Kate. Happy Blogoversary!
Yea Kate! Your messages from so far away mean a lot. Thanks for being here!
A lovely post, Kate, thank you for being who you are.
Kate, I remember when you arrived here. I asked you if you knew Kim Gamble and that I would be glad to introduce you to him.
Your told me you never heard of him and that you really weren't interested.

Things change... Happy Two Year Blogiversary!
Hooray for you. Keep at it.
Oh goodness, Larry! Did I put it that bluntly??? Heavens to Betsy!!! I do recall you getting in touch with me ... I was naive ... and didn't know what to think nor make of OS at the time!

Kim, FORGIVE ME PLEASE? !!!!!

Yes, how things have changed! I didn't think it would have been possible to find such wonderful, beautiful friends here. Wow. Yes, things have changed.
And Larry? Can you forgive me too, please? I am so sorry.
Happy 2 years, Kate! And best of luck with that plate. Thanks for spreading the rhymes around the way you do.
Thanks for everything you've written & shared here Kate.
It would not be the same without you.
Your poetry slams have elevated the poetry profile here beyond.
& your comments are always worth bottling.

See you out the back for a minute, Larry ?
Happy BlogVersary Kate! Thank YOU...and many more blogs, poems and celebrations to follow.
Congrats and no apology needed. Most of our plates are slopping over the sides with the everyday doings.
Kim, thank you dear friend.

You will forgive me, right? I'd never been online before and then Larry approached me and ... well... I AM sorry!
Kate,
If Larry approached me it would be fight or flight too, rest assured ;-)
sounds more like a platter
but, it doesn't matter,
if it's just a plate
it's all good
mate

If Kim commenter` alsoknownas . . .
Or Kerry don't call 9-11 . . .Kim?
and ask the operator for a cake?
You didn't need to fess up about last year's post! We (I) are so glad you are here. A treat for our eyes and senses!
glad I met you here...xoxo!
Sweet Little Kate,
you totally rate!
I always love to see what you've put up...so glad you're here.
Congratulations! I am glad you are still here!
Kate, hearing your light, this energetic smile that eases warm with your words. Joy to know you, this veritable smile that finds me here, a world away in the middle of the US, where it's 60 degrees colder that your country -- watching the Open, down in Melbourne..... really great play. But I need to pull away from too much sports.
Please do keep us close,as this is a real community, one that I prefer to many of the other entertainments.
And people like yourself make it worth while. Thanks for your contributions, your bright shining smile and warm thoughts make it so good and true. HAPPY B-DAY!
I'm glad you are here as I enjoy reading your blog, and always appreciate your comments wherever I find them.
Happy Anniversary, Kate! Doesn't time fly? I hope you have many more!
Kate, I would be so remiss if I didn't just say Thank You, for being part of OS. You're a great treat on these pages.

I also like the accented second syllable in "par-TAY". Makes the line scan correctly now, doesn't it.

Happy 2, grateful for you, stay with us as you do.
Yay!! Happy Blogiversary! So thankful you are here!
Sorry I missed this. Your presence here is a real pleasure. You and Kim represents Australia in an excellent way. Happy Blogiversary.
Happy Blogiversary dearest Kate!!! You are, without a doubt, one of THE BEST things about OS! So very glad you are here. Thanks for your amazing support over the years and all of your immeasurable contributions to OS. XOXOXO
I've been remiss in thanking everyone here for lifting me up the way that you have. I read each and every comment when you posted and then a few days ago and was a tad overwhelmed .... and really, I still am.

I struggled to find the right words to say to you. Please know that you have indeed touched my heart with your care for me.

Saying a simple "Thank You" just never quite seems enough.
