Big Day




Hello!

Today I am happy to say that it is my 
blogversary!
Country Dreaming is 11 years old 
TODAY!



Most of you know the story of Dreaming's 
arrival in blogland, for those who don't 
here goes. Back in 2009 Mr. Ken was had
been laid of from his job after 20 years with 
the company he worked at. Needless to say 
BIG SURPRISE to us and not a good one.
Nancy Yoakum--Acorn Cottage suggested 
I start blogging, she said I would enjoy it. 

After mulling and mulling I decided to 
jump in the pond. Mr. Ken helped me 
get Dreaming up and running. As it 
was July and I was on school break this 
was the perfect time to start. Plus it gave 
me something to focus on other than the 
fact that my spouse was out of work. 
was a bit slow at first but soon catch on. 
My little blog is not fancy but it suits me 
and I can pick any topic to talk about.    :)



During busy times, it was hard to keep 
updated, friends have come and gone, 
other social media has taken the place 
of blogging for some but I am still plug-
ging along. One thing that has come 
from this craziness that we are all dealing 
with, is that I see more people 
than I have for awhile and that is great!
There is a bit more time to blog too.

Happy Anniversary Country Dreaming 
we will keep going for as long as we can!




Thanks to all of YOU, my blog friends 
who still pop in for a visit, I am always
happy to see you!


Enjoy your weekend and stay safe.



~Keep on Dreaming~

  1. Well, Happy Anniversary! I didn't know the story of how your blog got started, so that was interesting to hear. You were one of my first blogging friends:) I remember winning your Kansas prize package and I still have the little thimble with the sunflower with my sewing collection. Congratulations!
