MY INTERNET IS BACK ...ROCK ON! 501 FRIENDS!

Thanks to all of my wonderful that I have made this year, I have made it to over 500. Your tweets, posts, and Facebook links have put me over the top.

A special thanks to Alex Cavanaugh who really went beyond the call of duty... THANK YOU ALEX!

Now that my internet service has been restored I can formally welcome ALL my new friends. It has been a while so the list is extensive. Some twenty-five plus I think. Well her goes...

Daina, Lyn, Patti, Khle, Anne, Mish,  Jeremy, Kristen, Laura, Jenna, Nadh, Cassie, Abby, Farawayeyes, Basil, Anna, Bonnie, L.C. Andy, Angela, Angela A., Stacy, Alexandra, Nisa, Jessie, Jennifer, The manic, silversolara, Gillian, Laura, latisha, Tania, Elizabeth, Colleen, CD, Cathy, Septembermom (500!), and my newest young friend, Lenny... How could you not smile when you see that smiling sun.... Thank you all. I can't wait to get to know all of you better. It will take time, but I will get to all of your blogs soon.

Can you believe how awesome these people are? Imagine also, that WE all have a love of writing, a passion for life, and a bond that could NEVER be broken.

This past year has been the most wonderful time I have had in a LONG time. I have learned to laugh and cry again. Thanks to all of you.

Now don't forget to leave a comment so that I can enter you in the drawing if you haven't yet. You have until Dec. 2nd midnight. So click onto those funny little lego dwarfs to comment.

Have a WONDERFUL Thursday everyone.

Also Don't forget to check on my friend Roland's blog and his contest... It is BEYOND awesome. Click here for the details and delve into the amazing writing of this man. Treat yourself to an ebook. He has many to choose from and check on my favorite. THE LEGEND OF VICTOR STANDISH. You won't be disappointed.

502. That is amazing.

I'm glad that you had such a wonderful year. Hopefully next will be just as fulfilling!

Yes, congrats Michael, good for you! I don't know how you did it, I've got 10, and I'm celebrating my first year, since Nov 30th also. You gotta give me some tips. I take a look at you and your personality, and see why everyone 'Loves Michael' some have all the luck. Oy.....I suffer....maybe that's my problem, I'm always suffering.....later..

I'm so happy for you on two counts :

You have your internet back (didn't that feel as if you were in exile?)

And you have past 500 followers! Way to go!

Thanks for the shout-out for Victor, too. I think the prizes I'm giving away aren't too shabby.

May you reach a 1000 followers very soon! Roland
