This & That Including What Ails

4th Anniversary With WordPress

on July 15, 2017

GarfieldHug turned 4 years old on 14 July 2017 at WordPress!! 😎

Time flies when I am having fun!

Yaay!! I survived by being wordy to the point of moaning and groaningπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ about this or that and what ails!😝

What is important is that I enjoy the lovely company of followers who chime in with their words of wisdom and or encouragement as they read my silliness 😊

Thank you!!πŸ˜šπŸ˜šπŸ˜šπŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸΎπŸΎπŸΎπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉπŸŒΉ

*Humbly takes a bow, with Garfield clutched in arms*

Garfield, my favorite particular inanimate furball featured in the center of the photo below, is the only furball that I squoosh nightly for hugs to sleep – is 24 years old.

I have 475 Garfields but I like this particular fella most. Why?

Dunno…maybe cos the size is right to be hugged or it has become a comfort furball who stuck with me through hospitalisations and surgeries.

I have willed for this fella to be interred in my niche with me tooπŸ˜‰…trust me,  I made this under sound mind ha ha!! * 

I hope when my time comes….this does not happen…if it does…someone in WordPress could blog about it under humor category.

Now I just need to find someone to dress up as grim reaper at my funeral.

I will then have a great exit….to a chorus of laughter! In style…..

Midsummer madness as the bard, Shakespeare might say?!

Anyway my inanimate furball goes to any part of the world if I travel! Even to my hospital ward whenever I am incarcerated…πŸ˜„or to my final abode…thank goodness I managed to get freehold property for my last resting placeπŸ˜ƒ

Couple of days back, I received my 1,009th follower! *Rubs hands in glee and feel so happy!*πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„

I have been nagging online on WordPress with 4,008 posts and chatted with some 31,230 visitors who viewed my silly blogsite about 89,720 times (*repeat visitors😍)

Readers have withstood tales of my evil Lords and my minion issues.

They have encouraged and soothed me.

Without WordPress, my sanity would have taken a toll as I had no sounding board or gripe chamber! πŸ˜‚

Thank you all for being here for me and cheers to more glorious years…or oops more burden to your ears (?) …hopefully you still stay and see me through what I call…my journey of life!

    Double ditto the previous congrats and Happy Birthday wishes. I always look forward to your posts and thank you for all you do to make me smile! πŸ™‚

    The “re-hearse” photo reminds me of this poem I wrote 25 years ago:

    FORGET THE HOLE THING

    Re hearses, I think
    I’d just as soon not;
    You see, the hearses
    Lead to the death plot.

    Beware rehearses
    For ye final fling….
    And spare the hearses
    For the real thing.

  7. Happy Blog-aversary
