Imagine my surprise when I went to log into my little blog, and saw a familiar photo on Freshly Pressed. At first I thought, how cool someone else has been sight seeing around my fair state. Wait, that’s my photo! It took me a few moments to realize that my quickly put together and not researched at all post about my visit to the Abo Ruins had been Freshly Pressed. I quickly logged into my blog to see what sort of action was going on. There were so many sweet comments and likes and even new followers!! I still can’t believe that my little blog was chosen to be Freshly Pressed out of all the other worthy blogs out there. All I can say is thank you WordPress people! Thank you for finding me amongst all the more worthy blogs out there with better pictures, better posts, better words (yeah, I know that’s not grammatically correct, but that’s how I roll!)
Once the shock of being Pressed wore off I started reading through all of the sweet comments left by the good people of blogland. You guys really are the best! I am so humbled that you would take precious time out of your day to read my post, press that like button, leave a comment or even follow me! I really want to give each and everyone of you an awkwardly long bear hug! (Aren’t you glad that isn’t possible?)
Anywho, I’m feeling a little like an actress clutching her brand new shiny award as the music plays to shoo her off the stage. So I’ll end this awkward post with another thank you, thank you times infinity! It is such an honor and so humbling that people other than my mom enjoy reading my ramblings. (Hi Mom!)
Oh, and just because I’m so darn proud (and maybe a little nutty,) I saved a screen shot!
I am new to this blog, but I recognize that our selections promote sites like yours. In that sense, we are at the best place in sharing our thoughts and finding links to the best places online.
If I ever make it to the Holy Grail of wordy laundry/freshly pressed, I’ll have to take a photo – because I don’t have print screen functionality on my lap top! Congratulations, and sing it loud and proud, you deserved it!
Thank you so much!! You’ll get freshly pressed one lucky day soon! I still can’t believe I was “pressed”!
