Four Years! WOW Karen..you have been blogging a very long time, my dear! GREAT FOR YOU! Have you ever run out of stuff to write about or just felt sort burned out on blogging during these four years? Congrats to you dear Karin! Everything you listed in your tt certainky sounds like blogging truly serves many things for you…and wonderfully so, I might add.

Great list! I love that blogging is an outlet, and a way to express some creativity!
March 30th, 2006 at 10:55 am
Those are almost my exact reasonings for blogging as well!
Thanks for stopping by my 13!

I like blogging for many of the same reasons. I’ve only been blogging for about a year though. Happy Blogiversary to you!
March 30th, 2006 at 12:07 pm
I enjoy blogging for the same reasons! I love it so much. And I love the people I meet along the way. What a blessing it has been to me!
Happy T13!

Happy Blogiversary!
March 30th, 2006 at 1:05 pm
All excellent reasons to blog. I started off blogging just to test it out, but when I began to get comments I loved the interaction. Then I realized that my writing has advanced because of the blogging I’ve done, and I knew I was hooked!
March 30th, 2006 at 1:33 pm
Cute 13! Thanks for stopping by my blog!
March 30th, 2006 at 2:01 pm
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Thanks for seeing my 13.
March 30th, 2006 at 2:20 pm
Happy blogiversary! That is impressive-4 years. I just started blogging to document Justice’s growth. I really enjoy it-a great outlet.
March 30th, 2006 at 2:29 pm
The blogworld kindof reminds me of having pen-pals from all over the world. :)
March 30th, 2006 at 2:33 pm
Love your reasons. Thanks for coming by….I agree that praying should have been number 1 but I think it’s always good to end with prayer.
March 30th, 2006 at 2:35 pm
Happy Blogging! Ain’t it fun!
March 30th, 2006 at 2:38 pm
Terrific list!
Thanks for stopping by my 13!
March 30th, 2006 at 2:54 pm
I’m with you on #6
My 13 is up.
March 30th, 2006 at 2:59 pm
I agree with everything on your list! I love blogging and it is such an outlet for me. I also use it not only to talk about my daughter’s life but also my dogs, niece and nephew. Thanks for stopping by my TT. Happy Thursday!
March 30th, 2006 at 3:11 pm
I blog for all the same reasons! Great 13!
Thanks for commenting on my site! I will add you to my new list of Karen Blogs in my sidebar. Even though you spell it wrong. :) (tee-hee)
March 30th, 2006 at 3:15 pm
Happy Anniversary!
March 30th, 2006 at 3:20 pm
I blog for sanity. thanks for stopping by my spot on the web
March 30th, 2006 at 3:27 pm
Ditto Ditto. It’s a great container for all my writing and a way to organize it. I have journals of all the cute things my sons used to say. Thanks for coming by today!
March 30th, 2006 at 3:34 pm
Blogging is fun isn’t it. Liked your list. Thanks for stopping by mine.
March 30th, 2006 at 3:41 pm
I have similar reasons for blogging too! Wow….four years, that’s a long time!!
March 30th, 2006 at 3:42 pm
I’ve been blogging for nearly 5 years now. I’ve had a few reincarnations in that time but I still love blogging!
March 30th, 2006 at 3:45 pm
the part i love best about blogging is visiting everyone and reading what they have to say, i’ve learned so much just by doing the tt, more than i would have ever on my own.
March 30th, 2006 at 3:55 pm
Four years is a great thing, I read a statistic somewhere that showed most bloggers don’t go longer then a year before they give up lol.
Great TT list :)
March 30th, 2006 at 4:12 pm
Hi Karin thanks so much for visiting my T13 :) I love your site very functional and fun to visit.
I like to write too so blogging has been a treat to meet people and interact. Sometimes it gets overwhelming because I’m so used to having close friendships in real life, but with a handful of people. Internet is HUGE so I get easily glued to my computer and forget I have tons to do lol
March 30th, 2006 at 4:40 pm
4 years..that’s awesome! Happy Blogiversary. My TT is up.
March 30th, 2006 at 5:09 pm
I always enjoy your TT. These are all some of my reasons too.
March 30th, 2006 at 5:19 pm
Wow, Happy Blog Anniversary! And a very Happy TT as well. Your blog looks like Spring, I love it. The tulips have put me into such a light and lively mood. Thanks so much! I love your list.
I have been blogging for about 9 years although we didn’t call it “blogging” way back then, lol.
D
March 30th, 2006 at 5:56 pm
Congrats on the 4 years. Just hit my 1 year this past week. I love the look of your blog. So peaceful and springy :)
Thanks for the comment on my blog!
March 30th, 2006 at 6:02 pm
I haven’t been blogging quite as long as you, but I’ve found SO MUCH about it that I LOVE. Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to “get into it”.
I started blogging only to share my boys’ experiences with cochlear implants. It was easier to point other parents to the blog than to retell the story a hundred times.
Then eventually I started blogging for ME, and have come across so many wonderful folks, such as yourself. Good sentiments you’ve shared. ;)
My T13 are up, too!
March 30th, 2006 at 6:16 pm
Great list! I’ve become addicted to blogging, mainly because of the great people I’ve met. So friendly and nonjudgmental!
March 30th, 2006 at 6:16 pm
I blog for those same reasons. It has become quite the addiction. I love the look of your site. Very pretty. I love me some pink and green! ;D
My little man is 13 months. Not far behind Little girl!
March 30th, 2006 at 6:22 pm
I like your list and have to agree with all your points. I like meeting new people too. Although not a great writer, I still love doing it. And what I like most about blogging - I can say what I want and no one is talking back (or they never come back again *grin* if they don’t like what I write).
Sorry, that I am so late on responding today…
Link you up right now.:)
March 30th, 2006 at 6:38 pm
And plus, it’s just plain fun! :) Thanks for visiting my TT. Stacie
March 30th, 2006 at 7:02 pm
I love blogging mostly for the same reasons you mentioned in numbers 1,2,5,6 and 13. Thanks for coming by my 13.
March 30th, 2006 at 7:32 pm
Great list. I love to write also.
