Hi everyone!! β€οΈ
I cannot believe that I am writing this…the other day I reached 3000 followers on my blog π I can’t let this moment go by without saying something π« I’ve started writing this post so many times I was beginning to doubt it would ever find it’s way out of the drafts folder π It had to appear sooner or later because I want to let you guys know how grateful I am!! ππ
I never started doing this with numbers in mind but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that sometimes I fall into a deep well of letting stats bother me as they are always up and down and I need to stop doing that! Because at the end of the day all I can do is keep on with what I enjoy, I shouldn’t fret over it or else it sucks all the fun out of it. I’m going to try to only focus on the good side of it, like this! π«
This has honestly shocked the life out of me π I feel like I’m making friends on here everyday and that is a truly amazing thing as we’re all over the place π but we can connect through writing. You are a bunch of kind souls and I love our chats in the comments and emails π I LOVE reading my blogging pals posts and get so excited when I see your names in the reader π I’m not ashamed to say that I turn into an excitable fangirl going on a comment spree on your posts π
It’s okay to blog for yourself and I feel like I’m doing that in part but most of me wants to do this for you lot and put a smile on your face π€I hope to achieve that with everything I write (except from the moody stuff but who knows, maybe you’re into that kind of thing π). No wait, even the sad posts can possibly make someone happy because then it means we’re not alone in what we go through π¦οΈ #lastminutethoughts π
I appreciate that you have chosen to spend your time reading my ramblings, there is a lot more coming your way! π You’ve been warned π€·π. I love writing with a passion and having a place to express myself is awesome. This blog is my safe space to escape from all that’s going on in life especially my chronic illness and through it I have been given many great opportunities such as speaking to others in similar situations β¨
The support on here is the absolute best and I’m scared that this whole experience could go up in a puff of smoke tbh π YOU are amazing and have no idea how much this means to me (because I can’t find the bloody words to voice it π). I don’t know where I’d be without my blog as it’s been with me for so long, doing this has become a way of life and it’s quite strange how I can’t remember much before I created it because it’s all had such a humongous impact on me.
There are times when I loose inspiration but I never think of giving up because to put it out in the open, I don’t feel like I’d survive without it (to put it lightly I’m a bit dependant on it π) or have interest in any other hobby as much (aside from reading of course π). I go through phases but blogging is the only one that has stuck because I enjoy it so darn much so I’m not about to let it end anytime soon (feel free to quote me on that ππ).
PS. I’m thinking of doing a Q&A so please send through whatever questions you have for me either through the comments or my contact page (Keep em kind! π). I can’t wait to gather them all up and spend some time answering them! π
Thank you so much for being a part of this wonderful journey!! π Sending a load of love your way alongside hugs & squeezes (because they are REAL hugs to me π and I hope you have a lovely day β€οΈ
I love how your posts are always full of energy and joyβΊοΈπ congratulations!π

Big, big congratulations! You really deserved to reach this milestone. Your personality shines through your posts, so no wonder people want to follow you on your journey. Just like you, blogging has become a part of my life. So big that I would know what to do without it! You mentioned your blog going up in a puff of smoke, and I have that fear too. Just about the general internet! What if it all goes through a serious update overnight and my blog doesnβt exist anymore?
Anyways, Iβll stop sending my fears. Hope you can have a good celebration, even just by treating yourself to a cake and a cuppa. It is so well-deserved!
Have a great day, Elsie. Sending love from π¬π§
