Four!

January 26, 2011

Wow, here it is, the FOURTH BLOGIVERSARY of FrankNotes!  I can’t hardly believe I’ve been sharing, or rather, attempting to share the ups and downs of my life for FOUR YEARS!

In that time I have made 496 blogs posts, have received 8,454 comments, have had 331, 696 total views!

And every year on my blogiversary (well, except the first, which I apparently missed!) I do a giveaway of some sort.

So to commemorate 4 years of being together, let’s do a giveaway!

Leave a comment telling me why you started reading FrankNotes or your favorite story or whatever, and you’ll be entered into a drawing for…  for…  well, something!  I’d love to whip up a handmand something or other but at this stage in my life, that may not be very realistic.  But it will be something wonderful and filled with love from me.

Thanks for sticking with me for the last FOURS YEARS!

UPDATE: I randomly chose a winner, but feel free to comment.

Changes In 2011

January 7, 2011

In an attempt to assuage my guilt from ignoring and otherwise neglecting my blog, I am trying to find a way stay connected with all of you lovely readers (all 4 of you that remain!).

Before I get to the solution, let me explain the ‘problem’, which is that Facebook has become my default social website for connecting.  It’s super easy to post photos, videos, and updates throughout my day, especially because I have an app on my iPhone.  So for those of you who are so inclined, you can friend me on Facebook (just please put a note that you’re a reader of FrankNotes).

The downfall with Facebook is that many of you may not be members.  So to remedy that, I’ve added a new box in my sidebar to the right that is connected to my new Twitter account.  At present I’m using it mostly for my Project 365 posts (every day I take a photo of an event that happens during the day and post it), so you’ll see a Twitpic link that leads you to the photo I posted for that day.  (You can also see see a monthly composite photo here, a link to which will be in the sidebar.)

I’ll also try to stop in to post info about what’s going on in my crazy life, but with an average of 3 posts per month last year, that’s not saying much.  But I’ll do my best.

So Happy 2011 to everyone and I’ll “see” you around!

Happy New Year!
