One year of this and that!

28th August was my blog's first birthday. I didn't even remember the date, since Lalita had just passed away. It is indeed ironic that my first anniversary post commemorates Lalita, my very first blog friend, who was most encouraging while I hesitated to take the plunge into blogging.
Since last night my computer has crashed, so this is being written on the SRE's laptop. To which I have, obviously, only limited access. So this is just a little post announcing that 'Of This and That' is a year old, and that I am so glad that I have this wonderful forum for expressing myself.
Wonderful friends have come into my life via cyberspace: thanks for being there- you all know who you are!
I don't know when I'll manage to post next. Take care, all of you.

    Congratulations! What I always marvel at is how committed you are to your bloggy friends and take the trouble to know them and their lives. You're a rare person, Dipali.. in the best sort of way. :0) I wish you many long years of blogging, with all its joys and none of the trolls.
