Hi everyone! I hope you’re doing well! As usual, I’ve been working a lot lately! I wanted to stop by and say hi and…thank you for your support throughout the years. I didn’t get to update the blog the other day but I wanted to let you know…I reached 2,000 WordPress followers recently! I never thought I’d see the day but I’m so glad I did! I began Life of an El Paso Woman in February 2015. I started it to get back into writing and based on the advice of a childhood/neighborhood friend. My friend Ryan Loera told me I should start writing again after a five-year hiatus. I thought I would start a career in sales. I enjoyed sales but believe it or not, it’s more of a hobby now. The blog’s given me opportunities I never thought I’d have. I’ve been able to meet other bloggers from around the world. I’ve even met a couple in real life. Blogging has also given me the opportunity to attend concerts and events in exchange for honest reviews. I hope to start including more interesting blog posts soon! I admit, I haven’t been that creative.
So what else? My son turned 13 on Dec. 13! It’s crazy how time flies! I still remember the day I brought him home from the hospital and MANY other memories in between! He has his first band concert in a few days. We’re looking forward to it. What’s new in your life? I’m still not ready for Christmas but I better be VERY soon! Take care everyone and I’ll see you soon!

I’m totally amazed – and a little jealous! – of your follower results. I don’t tend to talk to other bloggers about their followers, but when I see a number like that…WOW! I’m just sitting over here looking into the distance at 500 followers and happy when a post gets a dozen likes. 😊
Congrats to you!
