I Feel Love, So You Get Love

I Feel Love, So You Get Love

I know Christmas isn’t everybody’s thing but I really do love it. For me it’s about friends, family food and love. I realized yesterday, sitting with the cute boy after we had opened our gifts (we will be apart so we did an early “UsMas”) that I had lost some of my usual spirit for the last couple of years and I’m just now feeling it come back. I owe that to so many people. Of course to the cute boy himself but also to so many of you. I started this site at a time when my life was in transition and you all entered that life, came along for that ride and have cheered me on through the bumps, bruises and growing pains that big change brings. You have all helped me become who I am now and I have some much gratitude and love for you all!

So, whether you are celebrating this week or not, know that as I celebrate you will be in my heart.

All my love,

JoEllen

PS-

Did you see? Rori over at the fabulous Between My Sheets posted her Top 100 Sex Bloggers of 2014 list and I was #2 – I’m still kind of stunned!
