Celebrating a 3 year Blogoversary With Lots of Doors!
Welcome! Today I am celebrating! My third blog anniversary or as we sometimes call it…
Yes doors, that’s how we celebrate around here! One door opens while another one closes. And so it goes!
But now this is a full fledged blogoversary! I swear!!
And running around in Manhattan is also a lot of fun. There is never a dull moment!
Yes I am very happy living in New York. I must admit that things are a bit tough for the kids because there is an adjustment period. One that I am unfortunately, oblivious to since I grew up here.
I have to admit something to you that I was not at all expecting to admit. You see, while I was putting this photo essay together I found myself feeling nostalgic.
If only we could scrub away the bad and keep the beauty.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that…
I guess I’m not as tough as I had thought, after all!
The blue sky never leaves you once you have witnessed it.
You see, for me there is beauty in every nook and cranny. Is this a blessing or a curse?
I was going to talk about how much I love the blogging community and how we all support each other and how truly blessed I am to be a part of it.
But those images took over my mind and my heart and so I ended up writing another kind of post. I hope you’ll forgive me for rambling on like this.
I guess sometimes you just have to let the images take you where they may.
And maybe those doors will stay open after all.

I love a good door (and the name of your blog…Goonies!!) You would love the little towns in England, SO many pretty and old doors!
You certainly captured some beauties – such variety and artistry!
Happy blogoversary!

They each have such unique character. What a great collection!
Congratulations on your blog milestone! I love looking at photos of doors, thanks for sharing them. Stopping by from the #HomeMattersParty link up.
Happy blog anniversary, Mary! You have accomplished so much in 3 years –you should be very proud of that.
I understand how you feel about leaving Greece for NYC. Change can be hard, even when it is done for good reasons. I am always thankful my ancestors had the courage to leave the countries of their birth to immigrate to the US to give their descendants opportunities. My husband is a immigrant and I know it was very hard on his mother to leave her mother and all her relatives behind in Italy, but her sacrifices helped her family very much. They would not have had the same opportunities they had here.
Happy Anniversary, Mary! Greece is a beautiful place, I would guess that it’s normal to feel nostalgic, especially about that blue sky and those beaches…especially during a New York winter! Congratulations and here’s to many more years of blogging friendship!
Mary, what a beautiful post. It must be difficult leaving the place you called home for so many years and all the wonderful memories you made there and that oh so amazing blue sky. I love all the doors, so gorgeous! Happy Blog Anniversary!
