Today is the Winter Solstice – the shortest day of the year for the Northern Hemisphere;
it also marks my 300th blog post of blogging daily since launching this site! How the time has flown!
While I had planned to share some sentiments about reaching this 300 blog milestone of blogging daily instead I am opting to include them with the upcoming December 31st blog post to close out the year. For now if you are looking for a quick list of milestone posts – at each 100th mark – I am including these four links: 1st blog post: “There’s Been Talk!” February 26, 2015 | 100th blog post: “My Dad” June 05, 2015 | 200th blog post: “Celebrating blog post 200!” September 13, 2015 | and today – 300th blog post: “The Christmas Guest” December 22, 2015.
In just three days Christmas will be here – make that two days if you are like our family where we all convene on Christmas Eve! And the closer we get to the day I realize some of these blog posts may not be read until later given time constraints. With that said here is a song I came across on one of the SiriusXM Radio Christmas channels today that I wanted to share.
