Aunt Debbi's Garden is one year old today. On this date last year I made my very first post. I was taking myself really seriously. Nobody commented. Lucky for y'all the Monkey's took over. This blog may be silly, but it usually isn't boring.
A look at my site meter shows that more than 13,000 people have been here to visit. Now, I know that is not a lot in the big blogging picture, but hey, I'm blown away.
I have enjoyed this hobby very much. I have made some great internet friends and actually met one face to face. I love to read comments y'all leave and go out and read y'alls blogs.
I have gotten some great ideas from other garden bloggers. I hope I have given a little bit of good information along with all the silliness.
I chronicled the really silly invasion of pumpkins in my tiny garden.
We were involved in several sock situations, one became an international incident
I feel like this is a great record of our lives from my point of view and saturated in plants.
The Monkeys are not impressed.
Congrats on one year...love the monkey pics!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! I am so glad to have found your entertainting and informative blog!
ReplyDeleteThe monkey's are precious!!
Happy Blogaversary from The Shibaguyz, The Shibaboyz & Hera The Cat!
ReplyDeleteIf there's no smelly socks or ceiling fans involved, the monkeys don't seem mightily impressed by the events of us boring gardeners! They may be an unruly bunch, but they sure are cute and entertain us daily. I love visiting your blog, Debbi. I would like to know where "Aunt" Debbi came from, though...

Monkeys are usually not impressed with anything we, their parents, do, unless it involves pulling candy out of our sleeves or something equally desirable. Congrats on your anniversary!
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogoversary Aunt Debbi! Every day I just marvel at all I've learned through blogging; all the friends I've met; all the laughter and all the tears. My life has been enriched so much, and I've only been doing it for 4 months. Each new day I find something great!
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary. I enjoy the silliness, it makes me feel like I'm not alone in the universe with crazy kid antics.
ReplyDeleteTime sure flies, doesn't it? I don't even remember how long I've been blogging, I'll have to check all of my blogs to see how long I've been flapping my jaws. I've never really been serious though that I can recall....
Congratulations on one year. Cute monkeys! Have a wonderful year two!
ReplyDeleteThanks All.
ReplyDeleteI will post about how I became Aunt Debbi tomorrow.
Congratulations Aunt Debbi. You raise the fun quotient of this virtual thing, whatever it is.
ReplyDeleteThanks hugh.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blog-iversary! Give the monkeys a big hug or two.
ReplyDeleteCindy
Thanks Cindy, the hugs will be distributed.
ReplyDeleteI remember my first visit too. I was trying to figure out if you were totally off your rocker or smart as all get out. Didn't take me too long to figure out you are extremely smart. I have enjoyed each visit since and wish you the best. Happy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna, I feel more off my rocker than smart.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Aunt Debbi!!! You (and the Monkeys) brighten our day. Not to mention the vegetable massacres. (Our friend Ben would like to suggest that perhaps a sock massacre is in order.) And we think 13,000 visitors is a very impressive number. Way to go!!! We're already looking forward to our first anniversary this coming February. Like you, we've been having a ton of fun blogging away and getting to know other bloggers. It's a wild and wonderful world out there!---Silence
ReplyDeleteHi Deb - here's a big, wide transatlantic hug for your blogaversary :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations - I never realised we'd started within a few days of each other!
It's been great to meet blogging buddies like you along the way, especially when the fun and silliness has got out of hand :D
Here's to the next year my friend!
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI love this blog! I have learned, laughed, and been amazed.
ReplyDeleteOh and you make really nice looking monkeys!
Happy Blogaversary.
Hi Silence, It has been fun hasn't it.
ReplyDeleteHi vp, I have really enjoyed all the exhange of information and silliness. Thanks
Thanks momo
Foxy, thanks for the monkey love. I have enjoyed reading your blog as well. The letter to your son left me a little tearful, but in a good way.
Happy Blogaversary Deb! Don't know how I missed this post, but I did. Congrats to you & your Monkeys! They keep life interesting, don't they? lol
ReplyDeleteRacquel, thank you and yes they do keep it crazy real.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your one year blogaversary. I am sure the monkeys will enjoy reading and seeing just how silly they were when they get older.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa. It is good to have proof of silliness.
