2024 Week 52: We’re going to the end of the line …

Well, way back at the beginning of the year when I said that my goal for 2024 was to blog every single week for 52 weeks, a number of people laughed, sniggered and poo-hooed the notion, claiming that I was being a fool to myself and a burden to society.

And I should know, because I was most of those people.

But miracle of miracles – I did it!

Of course I’d be the first to concede that I didn’t do it with any great style, skill, class, intelligence or insight, and as a result most, if not all, of the blogs were sadly lacking in depth, substance, interest level, relevance, significance, originality and accuracy.

But hey, on the upside just about every blog did contain mostly recognisable and legitimate words strung together into almost coherent sentences, so let’s not nit-pick here.

I also kindly included some big, colourful pictures for those of you who found the words a bridge too far. (See example below.)

So I repeat, ‘I DID IT!’

And you know what? I’m kind of proud. Writing 52 blogs was one my Writing Goals and Dreams for the year. (I previously blogged in depth about these HERE.)

Overall I achieved 11 of my 26 Writing Goals and Dreams for 2024. I’m pretty happy with that considering there were quite a few wild dreams thrown in there.

And I’ve already come up with 24 new Writing Goals and Dreams for 2025.

Some of those goals and dreams involve the little guy below.

Katrin and I can’t wait for you to meet him.

A big heartfelt thanks particularly to my subscribers and to anyone else who took the time to read any of my ramblings. Special mention to anyone who went out of their way to comment or send an email. You helped keep me going. Greatly appreciated.

Not sure what shape, form or time-frame my blogging will take in 2025 but it will definitely continue. Consider yourself warned!

Cheers and HAPPY NEW YEAR from Blueyville.
Michael

    Happy Hogmanay from Edinburgh, Michael.

    It’s been fun reading your blogs this year.

    Perhaps next year, you could bring us up to date with what Ishmael and his friends are up to these days…

    Jane.

      Hi Jane. Thank you very much! A ten(?) year school reunion for the gang. That would be interesting. All things going well I should be in your neck of the woods sometime mid to late May. Cheers.
