Our First 365: A Report

Submitted by byjane on Thursday, 30 April 20093 Comments

Obama’s just celebrated his first 100 days, and MidLifeBloggers, not to be left out of the hoopalah, is celebrating our first 365, plus or minus a couple.

Here’s what we’ve done in that time:

Changed themes: three, maybe four times

Changed logos: four times

Published: 146 posts by 30-something bloggers

Which Provoked:  1,079 Comments, of which only 39 were not approved (don’t ask)

Here’s what you don’t know:

There’s another brain, eye, and sense of humor behind MidLifeBloggers.  Janice Miller, of the Manhattan Millers, is now our official Development and Marketing person.  Janice and I go way back–to tenth grade, in fact.  We still, after all these years, finish each other’s sentences.  Mother’s Superior is her blog; you’ll be seeing much more of it in the future (she’s got a lot on her plate these days!).

Here’s what’s coming up:

Registration for MidLifeBloggers.  You’ll want to register because–well, because we say so.

T-shirts, mugs, other CafePress goodies

A weekly link to More.com where I’ll be posting regularly (and writing that is why I’ve been MIA on ByJane.

This year has been quite a ride–and it’s only the beginning!  Who knows what the next 365 will bring…

Edited to add: Janice has informed me that we actually became friends in 9th grade.  Whatever, it’s a long long time.
