A 2024 in Review in Flowers

Dedicating this post

to our beloved friend, Cee.

Where I live we still have a little over two and a half hours before 2025’s arrival. I do not normally do year end reviews and I’ve long since given up on making any New Year’s Resolutions. This year Sunday Stills is asking us to do an Annual Year in Review. Therefore, I decided to give a few tidbits of my 2024.

  • 951 posts on WordPress
  • Written a total of 129.2K words in my WP posts
  • Participated regularly in blogging challenges. (I’ll miss Cee and her Challenges).
  • Commented on many posts
  • Had 10,153 views (for some this may not seem like a lot, but to me it is)
  • Had 4,125 visitors
  • Had 6,438 likes

Other Activities outside of Blogging:

  • Read 121 e-books
  • Read for a minimum of 30 minutes all 365 days
  • Read all 52 weeks of the year
  • Visited 5 cities in my area
  • Visited and Hiked at 14 different parks or greenways
  • Made many friends here on WordPress
  • My grandson started Kindergarten ( I’ve walked him to school most days)
  • My grandson hikes anywhere and everywhere with me
  • We moved out of an apartment and into a rental house one town over. (Coleman loves it. It is in walking distance to two greenways).

Now for my Floral Year in Review:

Any Roads

For this week in doing Cee’s Which Way My Way I’m choosing a theme of Any Roads with Bridges and Vehicles (cars, trucks, motorcycles, buses, etc.). I’d love for y’all to join me in posting Bridges with Vehicles.
