Even though I am in the middle of class preparations–Heart of Darkness and Beowulf, if you’re interested–I feel obligated to take a moment to write a post. Why? Because it has been almost a month since I last posted and because WordPress reminded me that it’s my WordPress anniversary. Typically, I ignore WP’s “pats on the back,” but three years is a long time to stick with a weblog, no matter how infrequently, randomly, and unpredictably one posts.
Sooooo…
Thank you, my little blog audience, for sticking with me. Pics and Posts is one of my happy places and I enjoy sharing my snail mail and photo adventures with you. Happy Anniversary to us!
Until next time–I leave you with a little bit of happy–a poem by e.e. cummings that always makes me smile!

“Who Knows if the Moon’s a Baloon” by e.e. cummings
[I designed this for a “Poetry on a Postcard” swap. I’ll be blogging about the series of swaps soon].
Have joy!
Congratulations Chandra!

Had my third year this year, too! So my little blog is a little older than yours, which is very befitting, as I am a little older than you are, too 😉 A day or two — uhm thousand? Three thousand? Does it matter? 😉
Happy anniversary. Have some non-poetic suprise for you, too (poems in German would not exactly be helpful, would they?)
But for now I will cite Dorothy Parker:

Congratulations! I commend you on your staying with it. Can’t say that I’ve been as good, and I started 4 1/2 years ago…

Oh, but I love your blog! I understand completely about not posting regularly. It’s sometimes a struggle with all the demands on our time, but it’s one of the few things I do “for me,” so I don’t let my wacky posting (non)schedule stress me out!
