Word of the Day: MILESTONE [Part 1 of 2]

[ATTENTION, READERS!  My friend Bridget and her family will have to leave their home in Nashville tomorrow, and tomorrow holds an ice storm coming their way.  I have started a GoFundMe account for them.  Read their story here, and if you can help, please do!]

Exactly six months ago to the day -- August 20, 2014 -- this blog marked the milestone of reaching 4,000 visits. It was late summer of 2014 and the big stories surrounding the 4,000 pageviews mark were the shooting of Michael Brown in a little town in Missouri called Ferguson and the death of the one and only Robin Williams.

Fast forward six months -- today, February 20, 2015 -- and this blog now celebrates passing 5,000 pageviews!  As always, I thank all of you, my dear readers, for finding something of interest here and for continuing to come back.  To any newer followers, thanks to all of you as well, and I hope to comment on things you find interesting enough to keep coming back.

Thanks so much!

Terry
