T is for...

TEN

Ten years!!!

That's how long this blog has been around.  I joined at about the halfway point and it's been an interesting ride.

Anyone here who has been here since round one?

I'd love to see some of your early posts and hear how you feel the blog has evolved.

It's time to unveil the badge for round 20, our final round and I have to say this was one of the Toughest for me to do.

I knew what I wanted to do.  But I kept putting it off.

I believed that if I procrastinated long enough it would change the inevitable result.  But that never works, so with encouragement from Roger, I completed the final badge.

I only wish we had actual shirts.

So T is for T-shirt and for farewell Tour.

But mostly T is for Thank You to each of you who has stayed with us.

  1. I can't bear the thought of no abcw, how can I keep in touch with all the friends I've made?
    Best wishes to all

  2. Great idea for the final badge, the farewell tour. Going to my archives to see when I first joined in. I know I had time in the middle that I didn't participate.

  4. Thanks for all the icons you've designed for us, Troy, and for the intros you've written. Although I hate to see abcw end (in this form) I'm hoping someone will pick up the reins and perhaps redesign it so the idea can continue. I started in Round 2, letter B, and have only missed a few weeks over the years. I love how I can incorporate my love of writing with my hobby of photography. I hope my posts have entertained others and also hope to "see" these good virtual friends in another format soon!

  6. I believe I've been with ABC for at least 3 years, but have become close to several of the sponsors through our blog posts and comments. It's going to be hard saying goodbye. Blessings!

  15. Norma Ruttan asked me to pass her comment on to you for some reason her comments on ABC Wednesday don't post. Can you pass my comment along to their site? Here it is- "Hoping that this comment posts. I'm happy that we have one more round, but sad that it will end. Thanks to Mrs. Nesbitt and all the team players."
    Thanks
