This week I’ll do my 2008 blog year in review. If you want to check out last year’s, it’s here: http://www.creativetexturetools.com/news.
Thank you for the mention! It is a quiet time in the blog world. It is nice to see you and these others are keeping things going though! I’ve seen CraftyGoat’s ‘rust’ post which was cool, but some of the others are new. So I’ll go and check them out. Hope you had a good holiday and managed to have a little eggnog while writing posts!
Thanks, Elaine! I was just telling a cousin of mine that I just can’t leave this alone–the business or the blog. I’m still in that infantile stage where I feel like it needs to be watched and maintained almost 24/7. Next year…I’ll take a true break next year… 😉
