Guess What?!?!?!....

Guess What?.........Well, can you guess?.......

         It's
                Day!



That's right! I started this blog exactly one year ago! If you would have told me back then, that I would be sharing my inner most personal mental health issues on the internet for the whole world to read, I would have laughed in your face...Seriously. What did I know about blogging, or the internet, or....about being honest with myself and others about some of the most truly horrible things that I have dealt with? I didn't even know how to write about it on paper, let alone on a computer screen with this awesome new keyboard that helps prevent carpal tunnel. Never in my wildest imagination, did I ever think I would have almost 30,000 views since I have started.

And all of this isn't me just tooting my own horn...TOOT...TOOT.... Really this is all about you guys, my readers. You guys have been there for me thick or thin, through the bad times and the good, for every step of the way and I am so thankful. So grateful. So inspired by you all.

So, I updated my blog theme in honor of the new year, and a year of not only learning about many of you, my wonderful readers, but in turn also learning more about myself as well. Something I would have never been able to do without all of your support. Each and everyone of you have  reminded me daily to believe in myself, have courage when I am scared, keep hope, and inspired me to keep on going even when I feel weary and weak.


                                               
That's all you guys!


So in honor of my blog reaching a year I wanted to have a blog Thank You for supporting me party. And what do parties have? Well, they generally have balloons and pointy birthday hats but I could't find any non copyrighted pics of those.....So How about Cake!



I loooove Cake!
But then I remembered I have diabetes and I can't eat cake anymore :( And how would I know how good it was if I didn't taste test it first? I can't be baking a nasty cake and serving it to my loyal readers? That would be awful....

                                   
                                                             Awe...flowers are so nice...

Oh.......sorry about that......erm....... Cake is out...flowers are out...what else makes a party?....

Oh yeah a gift! But.....


                                                                  Any suggestions?



Okay, I could do that! I mean I couldn't actually write one on such short notice but if I could I imagine it would look something like this:

                                              


........That was kinda rude.........
......
I guess I may have gotten a tad bit overzealous with the pictures on this post.....


Oh, well in that case, I can certainly write you all a lovely thank you letter to show my appreciation for being there for me, supporting me, and giving me a voice when I have been silent for so long.....



So I typed one up for you.......


And it put it in an envelope.....



 And here it is....this post is my Thank You letter to all of you. I couldn't have lasted a year doing this without each and everyone of you, my dear fantastic readers. It's not just about me, it also most definitely about all of you who got me here. It is about you. So in essence I am not just tooting my own horn because my little blog has turned one. I am also tooting yours as well....TOOT....TOOT....TOOT...TOOT....



Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart,

Neurotic Nelly
