			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I looked at the date the other day, I was rather startled to discover that it was April. Yes, I know a little behind the curveball; but nevertheless, In my state of confusion, you know &#8216;where did the year go,&#8217; &#8216;what has it amounted to&#8217; that sort of thing, I had a little look through my archives and discovered that today is my blogs one year anniversary. Hooray!</p>
<p>I started out blogging intending to post my wisdom (check), recipes?!? and random thoughts (double check). I really had no idea what blogging would amount to. I was only doing it because Cam and Rich made me feel guilty in their rant about how everyone should have a blog, contribution to society etc. Now, I&#8217;m involved in a community. A community which is full of intelligent, articulate and altogether wonderful people.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m more confident, I&#8217;m more aware of current affairs, my writing skills haven&#8217;t diminished quite as much as they would have, had I not been writing all this time.</p>
<p>So thankyou to everyone for putting up with the less than consistent style and content of my writing. Thanks to everyone who commented, or gave me advice. Thanks particularly to <a href="http://gdayworld.thepodcastnetwork.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/gdayworld.thepodcastnetwork.com');">Cam</a> and <a href="http://blog.scouta.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/blog.scouta.com');">Rich</a> for getting me into this, and to <a href="http://urbaer.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/urbaer.com');">Urbaer</a>, <a href="http://scientaestubique.wordpress.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/scientaestubique.wordpress.com');">Scienta</a>, and everyone else who have dropped the occasional comment.</p>
