1000th Blog Post


Highway 380, New Mexico


Yesterday I published my 1000th blog post.


Hoo wee!


Here's what I wrote after my 500th post


 
I recently published my 500th post since this blog began on September 28, 2010.
In the 18 months since then, I:


I am a lucky woman.


Another beautiful event occurred in these last 18 months: My daughter and son-in-law adopted their foster son, making legal what had already been a loving parent-child relationship for four years.

1000th Blog Post

It's now been 3 years and one month since I went rootless. And since my 500th blog post, I:
 
  • Spent three weeks in Istanbul 
  • Lived in New Mexico for a year (how quickly it flew!)
  • Got a job teaching English online to adult professionals in more than 10 countries
  • Am about to relocate to my next one-year residence, this time in Lafayette, Louisiana


Come with me on a carriage tour of Heybeliada Island outside Istanbul



There was another lovely addition to the family: My daughter and son-in-law adopted their foster daughter! This only formalized the heart relationship that was already there.

Beautiful homes along your carriage ride.

Heybeliada Island is lovely. I loved the squeak of the carriage gear, also.
