Week 26... Half of 52!!!

Greetings:

Ok, so, there are obviously 52 weeks in a year.  My Blog is 26 weeks old now, which is exactly half of 52, or, said another way...  Slu's World is 6 months old today!!!  So, this week, I will be "short & sweet" as I celebrate my:

Semi Annual Blogiversary

Ok, so I'm sending myself "Congrats" (for making it this far)
 
...And "6" Balloons, too!!!
Ok, enough "patting myself" on the back.  This is all about saying Thanks...  Without you, my family, and very special friends, this Blog would not be here today.  So, it goes without saying that I appreciate you, the "reader," AKA the "page viewer."  I sincerely say Thank You very much for clicking on my link each week and checking in for a few minutes. 

Some quick stats...  As of this morning, I have recorded 4,053 "Page Views" through the first 25 weeks.  That's an average of slightly more than 162 page views per week.  In Week 2, "Here We Go," I had 66 page views, as I got started, for my low.  In Week 21, "Gruene Music & Wine Fest," I had 218 page views for my high.  So, again, Thank You very much.    And remember, that "Share Button" is just one easy click.

I should also say that I very much appreciate all the Comments each week, both on the Blog and on Facebook.  Those are seriously what I look forward to the most.  They bring to me a smile and warm my heart every week.

Finally, with the Holidays coming up, I am taking a week off next Friday (Black Friday), and will be back in two weeks.  I hope to see you then....  And now, some "regular" spots.

Houston Texans Football:  Wow!!!  How about those Texans taking out the Bears in the cold & rain at Soldier Field on Sunday Night Football.  At 8 & 1, this week the Texans return home to Reliant Stadium to play the Jacksonville Jags, 1 & 8.  Currently, the Texans are -15 point favorites.  9 & 1 should be a given heading into their Thanksgiving Day game at Detroit (here we come "double M")...

Market Watch:  Another week, this time on the upswing...  the "zig-zag" continues:  Facebook closed yesterday at 22.17, up from the high 19's last week.  It just can't seem to find solid footing.

The EndAgain, thanks to all who visit and read this page.  Check back in two weeks and see what is happening in Slu's World...  I hope that you all have a fabulous Thanksgiving next week.  Be safe in your travels.

Be safe, be smart and always smile...  It's "Happy Friday"

adios...  vaya con dios

  3. Congratulations to you, Slu! 6 months is a big deal!! We watched the game lat week and were very happy to see the Bears lose. I hope your team plays really well this Sunday and gets very, very, very tired by Thursday. I'm hoping for a miracle, but betting that I'll be drowning my sorrows in pumpkin pie. Happy Friday, you.
