We have officially passed the two year anniversary of this blog and I have no idea where the time has gone. Two years of pouring my heart and words into these (web) pages and I have certainly learned a lot along the way.
I wrote a post about the first year anniversary last year (which you can read here) and I wrote some goals in it. Let’s see how I did on those:
- Reach 250 Followers
DONE! As of this blog post I have 280 followers on WordPress which I am very happy with. I didn’t set out on this journey to become famous, but I love that there are people who enjoy reading what I write about - Collaborate more with other bloggers
So this didn’t really happen at all, but maybe in the upcoming year I can put more time into this - Work on my photography skills
While I am still taking all my photos on my phone, I had spent more time editing photos as well as creating banners for my blog posts on Canva which has spruced things up a little bit - Branch out into more topics
This has definitely happened and it has been fun to talk more about food, yoga, sustainability, and more - Keep working on my capsule wardrobe and decluttering series
While I have paused my declutter series for now (though I feel like I will have more to write on that in the future) I am so happy with my capsule wardrobe posts, even completing a project 333 this summer
Now for some stats from the past year:

Congratulations on two years of blogging! I love using Canva – I have zero design skills, and Canva is so, so useful. 🙂
