To the average reader the numbers 300 and 450 probably don’t mean very much… but to me they mean everything… at least today they do.
Today is my 300th post on this blog in just over 2 years. And honestly for the first year or so, I really didn’t do much posting. In fact I think there was a span when I didn’t post for more than 2 months. So to be up to 300 now in this time, I’m thrilled.
And another 300 “milestone” is that I almost… SO CLOSE… have 300 people/groups/businesses following me on Twitter. If you want to join in the fun… add me. I can’t say that I’m the most entertaining person in the world — but I would love to be Twitter friends with you!
The other part that I’m SO happy about is that I have finally attained more than 450 comments! I joined the SITS girls to share in the comment love — not only because I love writing on my blog, but also because I am fascinated by other people’s lives and what they are doing to make things meaningful. Through this, I have met some awesome bloggers that I now tweet with on a regular basis. How fun is that! OMG… really, SO fun! I’m also hoping to go to one of their Bloggy Boot Camps later this year.
Anyway… for this milestone, I wish I could have a giveaway — but I just don’t have the backing behind me yet to do anything like that — so y’all will just have to leave your comments “free”ly and not expect anything in return… as much as I would love to provide it to you! Oh, but I promise, I will show you the comment love back… it might take me a while, but I am VERY committed to reading the blogs of those that read and comment on mine. It might take me til the weekend to catch up — but I’m going to get there! 
As part of the celebration – and the reason I started the blog – I have finished my page that tells about my weight loss journey. Complete with pictures. I couldn’t be more proud of it — and I truly hope that my story… in any small way that it can… will inspire someone to try something new, try becoming healthier, try living life to the fullest and not missing a beat in it all. Because after all — that’s what life it really about!
Thanks so much everyone for inspiring me!

Hooray! You have been very busy with your writing. That’s a lot of posts.
I am typing this for the business center of a hotel near my in-laws house. We arrived yesterday to spend time with family and attend my father in-laws wake and funeral. It is amazing to see how my husband’s family has pulled together to comfort each other.
Thank you for you prayers.
Happy 300th post! Tha’ts fabulous. I love blogging because it helps stretch my creative muscles…and you’ve got 300 posts worth of muscle stretching!
