#101 - Get 100,000 hits on my blog

I logged in tonight to find my hit counter at 99,990. It only took a few minutes for it to top 100,000!!! I can't believe the traffic my little blog has received since I made up my 101 Goals in 1001 Days list this time last year. This 101st goal was an afterthought and was a HUGE shot in the dark! It took me 18 months to get 30,000 hits and less than a year to get up to 100,000. I'm in awe. I wonder if I'll reach 200,000 hits by the time my 1001 days is over? Or 300,000? Hey, I have until September 29, 2011...there's time to dream!
.
I really appreciate all of you who read my posts; whether you comment often or lurk quietly from the shadows of cyberspace, I am so grateful that you spend your precious time reading what I have to say. I love having an outlet to get these thoughts out of my head and I LOVE that there are people out there willing to listen!
.
Big hugs from Phoenix - thanks for helping me reach this goal!

Congratulations, Katie!! I think 100,000 hits is a HUGE accomplishment. It should also be very affirming to you. I think it says people want to hear what you have to say, which I think is just wonderful. I love when that happens!

I have to share a quick story with your readers. It speaks to the reach and impact you have with your blog.

In December I was speaking/teaching to a large group of people I didn't know at the Phoenix Chamber. Someone asked me a question that included a comment about how tough it is for them to stay organized. I replied that my daughter has a blog called "Intentionally Katie", and referenced some of the tools and tips offered... specifically the daily plan to enjoy Christmas with one special event planned each day.

Afterwards, one of the attendees (a total stranger) stood in line for like 20 min. to ask me a question: "So YOU'RE Intentionally Katie's Mom? I LOVE her blog!!"

How cool is that? :-)

Hey Katie! I must say I have contributed to this in the last week since my mom introduced me to your blog. I was blown away by how well you're able to document your family's life! It's so wonderful it inspired me to start my own blog! http://stillhomesickforheaven.blogspot.com I can't believe how grown up your kiddos are now and congrats on the third! I miss you guys! My mom and I have Project Life too so we'll have to encourage each other to keep taking pictures!

You've always been my inspiration, for more than just blogging! I love that you are so successful at this. You should be, you have a lot of great things to say, plus your kids are hilarious! I agree with the need to outlet some of the thoughts in our heads and that's why I started my blog. Thanks for reading mine too! Love you!

Wooooo Hooooo! Congratulations, Katie! I'm just over 27,000...wonder when I'll hit 30,000? The way I post, probably in 2012! : )

I am pretty sure that with all of your bunco babes reading your blog...we make up at least 25,000 of those hits!!!

I know that I pop in several times a week....

I don't know why, though. I never actually implement any of your suggestions! Maybe if I would, I could get a lot more done! LOL

:) Happy Day to you friend!
