Five years ago today I uploaded my first post on this blog. It was
sensational to say the least. I had no other motive but to just share eetsy
bitsy pieces of my world with you hence the URL "My tiny two cents."
By default that made me a blogger. My underlying occupation has
always been "blogger". I
wonder if my name crops up in conversations and to clarify someone asks:
"Which Tracy?"
"The blogger."
"Oooh, that
Tracy."
Of course I'm not the only Tracy in the world with a blog but you
know what I mean. I also choose not to think which other things follow in that
conversation. It gives me so much joy to be associated with my work.
As I checked my stats, I found out people enjoy the realest of things.
That motivated me to keep writing about my experiences and those of others. One
thing you should know is that writers are quite the breed of human beings.
Anything you say or do; good or bad, will be used in a story.
It took me a while as I told you on this
post but I finally did it. This blog is like my child. Just like a first time
mother, I had no idea what to do, when and how but we got by just fine. Thanks
to Google, YouTube and other things.
I like to joke that if this
blog is a child it must be a malnourished one. There are months I never
uploaded a single post and when I look at my archives I feel a little sad. It’s
like having food but I didn’t feed my child and the food went to waste
altogether.
We are 5 years today regardless of all the undernourishment. All
was not in vain. Like all children, growth is inevitable. In May 2015 I bought
a self-titled domain and moved there haphazardly. I am sentimental about things
and people that are dear to me. And this blog (together with its followers) is
one of them.
I never figured how to say
goodbye here ( I hate them) Keeping in mind that there might have been people
who don’t know why I have never posted anything here or didn’t know what
happened to me. A lot has changed while I was away.
Well, me
and baby moved houses. 😎 😁 We are now at www.tracygesare.com.
Our new home is gorgeous. It has many rooms (categories: which I never quite figured
how to fix on here) albeit under construction. You can also follow simply via
mail. We are still furnishing (There’s so much planned this year) your ideas
are welcome and I hope that you will visit us often in our new home as often as
you did on here and more; bring along a friend or two or your whole clan. It
will be fun.
I would
like to thank all of you that were diligent followers and enjoyed my writing. My
mega babe Marion, thank you for aaaalllll the support, being my first follower,
always commenting and the ideas you gave. I owe you. Anastacia, Humphrey, Gavnamu,
Angy, Sarah, Rees, Momanyi, Gladwell, Tracey, Sammy and everyone who never got
around to follow the blog using Google Friend connect, thank you.
P.S
We are
keeping this house as a reminder of where it all started.
