There I was on Saturday having sat out in the sun thinking about working on this weeks entry and actually it dawned on me that actually something pretty special was approaching and really that's what we need to mark.
See this blog goes back a pretty long time to the days of scribbled notes of what I thought was note worthy at the time, a blogging facility of sorts at an early social media site where I learned at the sharp end blogging and then as the all powerful FaceBook took over it all got put into here or at least the more Smol side of life.
It saw me move from a big Tower Unit with separate monitor and keyboard to a Chromebook for more portable working and from dial up internet through the most slowest, unreliable broadband together to Fibre to the cabinet with a pretty decent speed even with the built in Wifi.
This place is very much a place of and for an eternal child that mixes in some interests that are also associated with grown ups although I had them in my early teens with other things that are very much child-like.
There was point where some as is not uncommon try to push you away from at least being seen to be like that, taking away things on the presumption erroneously you had outgrown them and to play act a older child or even an adult instead for their benefit and certainly not yours.
Overtime much of that has gone away cos it couldn't be sustained, cracks would appear in that pavement and so we are more at one with a life that is more like a younger teen with the same interests, hobbies and such like that might take in say a wildlife documentary as much as So Awkward and Dangermouse in much the same way a twelve year old me in the past saw Jacques Cousteau, Jackanory and Rhubarb and Custard.
It also was a world that saw comic and their annuals mixed in with classical music as much as The Hobbit with Joke books. It was also a world that I'd sooner be a schoolgirl from the past rather than some "young lady".
It's why it's the eclectic sometimes electric mix that it is.
Happy Birthday "The World of Joanne Chan"!
