Not 864!

No, golly golly. It's 1,000!

Fancy back blipping your 1,000 entry.

But that's the way blip has gone for me for a while now.

Off on a wee holiday and now back blipping.

Here is my son, studying wine making at Adelaide and we've caught up with him in Melbourne, with his lovely girlfriend Nicki (who is studying in Sydney) and we are staying at my brother Andrew and wife Joan's place for a couple of days.

After a year of blipping continuously I eased off and thought I'd just relax a bit more and blip most days. Then took a few months off and missed it and my blip pals. Now I blip almost every day, but don't have the time to comment much. I am so sorry about this and feel very poorly. I must seem like a very rude person all the time.

I've often thought about turning off the comments, but would miss being able to hear from my special blip friends.

It's difficult and I haven't worked out how best to move forward. Commenting and forming special friendships is so much a part of blip that without this I know I am not getting the full blip experience. But it is still a fabulous thing to keep a journal and allow friends and family to be part of your life.

Very special thanks to those that look by, whether they leave a comment or not. And for those that do, it's so very appreciated.

And of course, thanks to Blip Central.

What a wonderful organisation that allows people to contribute financially if they are able but doesn't exclude them if they feel that they can't.

Bravo!
