New blog on blogspot
Well, here I am on blogspot trying to write a new blog about a frugal and simple life in Suffolk and getting very annoyed when I can't work out how to do things right.
I obviously got the hang of it because a year later......2014..... I was writing about the smallholding and the things I wanted to look out for at car-boot sales HERE
Then on the 4th of April 2015, my post was about seedlings, Easter baking and opening the campsite HERE
I didn't do a post on the 4/4/16 but on the 6th HERE I wrote about being home alone in the small bungalow and going with youngest for her scan......the first sight of Florence!
Then last year we were here at the cottage and the post was all about BOXES OF BOOKS. I've already forgotten having 25 boxes of books stacked in the corner of the living room for several months while I dithered over spending hard-earned savings on bookshelves.
This is such a lazy way of filling a blog post!
Back Soon
Sue
Looking back is a nice way to move on, I think. I might borrow the idea, if you don't mind. It'll be interesting to see if things have changed much (or not).

Borrow away, I've done this sort of post before - quick and lazy!
DeleteBy looking at old posts it's fun to see if thoughts, ideas and deeds have changed over the years. You definitely have stayed true to yours.

Still growing and reading - just in a different house!
DeleteReally enjoyed seeing the previous posts. Your hot cross buns back in 2015 look delicious - can you recommend a recipe?
ReplyDeleteI did the recipe again last week and it's on the recipe page - it comes from the River Cottage Bread book
DeleteHappy Blogiversary! I hope ŵe have at lest 5 future years of your blog too, Sue.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'll try to keep going
DeleteHappy blogversary. Thanks for all the posts... Keep on posting!
ReplyDeleteand you too - wish I could think of the clever titles you are able to think of
DeleteThank you - sometimes the titles come into my head before the posts!
DeleteDoesn't time fly, it is quite amazing to look back. Thankyou for your well wishes.
ReplyDeleteThe years go so quickly - it's frightening
DeleteIt's an online diary...Happy versary x
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteWow I LOVE this post Sue. It’s like a snapshot in history!! Happy 5 years blogging -long may it continue x
ReplyDeleteIt's a handy and lazy way to do a post!
DeleteWell done, here's to another five years. One has to have short filler posts to leave time for other activities in one's life :o)
ReplyDeleteOne does!
DeleteI love the way our blog post grow, it's an interesting way to keep details of your life. So often it's the simple things which draw you to anyone. Hope to be able to read another 5 years. I often look back on my post, to check when my tree stared blossom, looking when we purchased something, so it's handy for other things as well.
ReplyDeleteYes it's very handy for reference and better than a paper diary because of the photos
DeleteOh my goodness-that was a lot to have packed ( and unpavked) into 5 years.
ReplyDeleteMoving twice in 2 years is not to be recommended!
DeleteBut it's nice to look back, and it shows how long I've been reading your mad ramblings 😉😉
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work 😊
Thank you............I think!
DeleteSue don't you ever accuse yourself of being lazy. You are the least lazy person I know.
ReplyDeleteBecause we're not as busy as we were 5 years ago I do feel lazy!
DeleteCongrats on your blog anniversary! I'm going on 7 years of it. I was inspired by Lucy at Attic24 to start my own blog - who inspired you? Have a great weekend! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteSomeone told me about some interesting countryside blogs and when I read them I thought "I could do that!" So I did.
DeleteAfternoon Sue
ReplyDelete"Happy blog Anniversary".
Enjoy your evening.
Carol
Thank you
DeleteI think this is a great idea for a post and not a bit lazy! Happy Blogiversary :)
ReplyDeleteI've done posts like this before - may do it again!
DeleteI have been following you for a few years now and have never read from the start, so with the 'taster' I've just read I might be burning the mid-night oil tonight. Happy Blogversary!
ReplyDeleteJoan (Devon)
I wouldn't stay up too late reading.....it's not That exciting!
DeleteI think we all have times when we have a head full of ideas for blog posts and other times when we there is nothing forthcoming. I am an expert in the matter of filler posts!
ReplyDeleteArilx
I need some new ideas .....I'll have a big read of your blog
DeleteA small beginning, but goodness how it all grew. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea what I was doing when I first started. But got sorted in the end
DeleteIt’s a cool retrospective
ReplyDeleteIt's a really good way of filling a blog post because it's a reminder to both you and us that it's worth looking back and seeing how our journey has changed us and what achievements we really need to celebrate LM x
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower so I don't mind recaps!!
ReplyDeleteHappy blog Anniversary
