A grateful silver blogger 'kid'

(Edited)

Thank you Silver Blonde Lizzie, your invite post in 2021 is the reason why I am a silver blogger. You see as I read your words a year ago I was filled with an instant this is fabulous I got to be part of this wonderful like minded group of fellow silvery bloggers.

For me it was the icing on the cake as an oldie retiree blogging on Hive. It was like the light had turned on, I definitely did not want to miss out on the expanse of creativity and friendship.

It was heartening to read how your son started your blogging life on Hive @lizzie as my son also introduced me to the Hive blockchain. This was in 2018. He too drew me in with the tantalising drawcard to earn bitcoins. I recall him saying that I had all the time in the world to write now that I was retired. Little did I know I had to travel the hairy slippery slope of saving passwords, the accidental publishing of half written posts and untimely wifi disconnections, etc.

Giving up has never been a part of my vocabulary and I am very grateful for this attribute of mine. And while I love and will always enjoy reading lots of different kinds of posts and interacting with fellow bloggers of all ages, some of whom I regularly communicate with and see as friends, I love this and am very thankful that I have unknowingly connected with many Silver Bloggers along the way.

For example the very sweet #alwaysaflower creator @dswigle is Silver Swigle, the down to earth and very nice @joanstewart is Silver Streak, the lovely @artywink is the Silver Mamma Chef and fabulous photographer @johannpiber is Silver Goat. I am also grateful for the ever growing new friendship connections in this community, some of whom are Silver Panda, Silver Soul and Silver Cat.

Oops, time to stop as trying to name everyone is fraught with the danger of missing so many out. My sincere apologies if you feel left out at all.

Now in 2022 my reason why I am still Silver Blogger is that I love the wide variety of posts, the recipes, the personalities and the stories. I also have a great want to share my own personal stories.

Just before I finish I wish to acknowledge the village of highly skilled supporters who helped create this community with Silver Blond Lizzie. I am sure that ongoing effort and energy is continually put into the smooth functioning of the Silver Bloggers Community by the behind the scene workers.

Sending a pretty pink bunch of gratitude to all my fellow Silver bloggers.

All the words and sentences have flowed from my creative self through my fingers and typed on my key board. The flower photos were snapped by me yesterday afternoon.

Thanks so much for mentioning me amongst these names, Angie, it's an honour.
I think many of us share a similar story about their start on the blockchain - you didn't give up and that's great. I enjoyed reading your story of your way on the chain. There are so many great people here which I wouldn't want to miss and you belong to them, Angie, although at the moment it's not easy for me to find enough time.

!PIZZA and !BEER served with !LUV - sounds like a nice dinner :)

Post writing and arranging photos is a time consuming job so perfectly understand. I am not working a job and still strapped for time at times. But, always worth the effort.

Thank you for sharing your positivity here with us @angiemitchell! Silver-Blond Lizzie's real name is @lizelle, so she's missing getting notifications for mentions.😉
Life's been a tad hectic again, so I'm only now going through the Silver Bloggers feed🙈
