Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. -- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

# 1 LET THE MARATHON BEGIN
March 9th will mark the 7th year of my blog, FOOLS RUSH IN. It was my desire to have 70,000 visitors by that date. I have already exceeded that number. I hoped to have 100 followers. That number has also been achieved. My desire to reach 2000 posts by that time is another matter. I am short 52 posts that I need to reach in 16 days. This one counts as #1. I need to post 3 1/4 blog entries per day. Bear with me as I go for it.

I wondered what that marathon was all about. You're on your way!
ReplyDeleteLove a woman with goals:):)
ReplyDeleteExciting! Do you have in mind what you'll post about 3 times a day?
ReplyDeleteLynn -- I'm thinking every 4th day I will have to post four to account for the 1/4. LOL I'm confused about your new blog title you mentioned on your post.
ReplyDeleteChanges in the wind -- Ah yes, lofty goals. This one might be a bit difficult and could get boring. Your 45th wedding anniversary trip to Rome isn't boring. How exciting! I need to catch up on the whole story.
Bonnie (BIZ) -- I've got a few plans going forward but will probably run out of ideas well before the 9th. Maybe not. I will do my best. Sorry about your former boss:( And how is the foam insulation working for you so far? Is that an expensive process?
I hope this won't be like leaning back in a dentist's chair and getting my teeth cleaned.
ReplyDeleteI'm buckled in, lets go.
Cliff -- LOL! No doubt it's going to be a bumpy ride. Actually one of the posts will be about a tooth extraction so I'll be in the dental chair for sure.
ReplyDeleteYou go girl! Let's make this RIDE!!!
ReplyDeleteIf anyone can pull this off it's you! I am getting ready to go read some more of your marathon. I'm sure you'll do fine with finding subjects to write about, what with all your farm animals, Slim, the grandkids. Can't wait to read them all.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you dear Ann. I love your blog and I know you will get to your goal. You have been blogging as long as me - maybe a few months longer. sandie
ReplyDeleteDebbie -- Thanks! I love your enthusiasm.
ReplyDeleteBonnie -- Hope I can keep you interested. Hope I can keep ME interested. LOL
Chatty Crone -- Actually I had a blog two years before this one, so I've really been at it nine years. What's that all about? I must be crazy. Well, guess that means a lot of us are. How you keep coming up with all your Fun Friday stuff is beyond me. It took a while on this last one but I finally saw the horse.
Good luck running your post marathon! It's a comment marathon for the rest of us who don't wanna miss out on any!
ReplyDeleteBoy was I surprized when I tuned in tonight!
Now I really feel like a newbie.
ReplyDeleteI'll be hitting 800 on Tuesday and it took me four years to get there.
Good luck with the marathon.
