Reflections

This is day 25, that means I am halfway to my goal of 50 days blogging in a row.  Actually, there was one day I missed while I was traveling, but still not bad.  Today is a day of reflection.

I have done my best to stay away from politics, work and religion because this blog project was an effort to allow me to think about other things.  It seems I have spent the last 25 days blogging about:

  1. Arts
  2. Education
  3. Food
  4. Friends
  5. Garden
  6. Live
  7. Love
  8. Pondering
  9. Reusing
  10. Stage, and
  11. Work (but not employment work, more like garden work).

It has been a chance for me to reflect on the things that I hold dear in life, and it has been a success so far.  I have learned that it is really harder than you might imagine to blog every day. Coming up with a topic is sometimes the hardest part.  I have had to rely on using photos that I have taken either during this period or in previous years to provide the visuals and sometimes the inspiration.

I have learned a lot.  For instance, my Google Analytics gives me a pretty good picture of how people are visiting my blog.

From this data I can tell that there have been 305 visits to my site by 161 unique users.  They have read 559 pages of my content and they average almost two pages per visit.  Almost half of the visits to my site are by returning visitors, that is good.

If I look at the peaks and valleys, I find that when I am talking about Little Women I get the most visits, when I am talking about my garden I get the fewest.  The spike on April 14 is from when I posted the pictures of the Little Women Rehearsal.  This post was also shared to a facebook page created for the cast and crew, and some of them shared it on their Facebook profiles.  That explains the spike.

The comments are interesting.  Most of them come from people I know, but the spammers found me pretty quick.

Anyway, thanks for following my blog.  I hope you find it interesting or entertaining.

PEACE!
