What a Journey it has Been

Note: This has been posted yesterday but due to a technical error I need not explain here, it appeared in the archives instead. Anyway, i detected the problem, albeit belatedly so, I am re-posting it now.

==================

I am starting to settle down in WP for this website and though I have yet to totally master the dashboard, I think I am gaining more confidence in having greater control over the “look” of HotMomma.

I was being nostalgic yesterday, writing about how this blog has started and how it evolved into what it is now and then when I came back to my laptop after I have left it for a few hours on standby, I couldn’t find my draft anynmore! Whatever happened, I have no other option but to re-do what I have started because I just feel like sharing my thoughts on this website’s milestones.

Looking back, it doesn’t seem like it’s four years ago that HotMomma was set up as a blog called Keypounder. It was then just in compliance to a requirement for my Masteral elective in Computer Ethics. My first-ever post was very short but since that time, I knew that this thing about keeping an online journal will be with me for keeps.

Then, two years later, I re-thought my blogging life and decided to make Keypounder more targetted or specific, if you like, and that’s when HotMomma was born. That was right after I arrived here in the UK with my two children to join their father. That post, I remember was written with an equal measure of anticipation and uncertainty. But I have not regretted pursuing this subject for my blogging because if I will be honest about it, motherhood is what defines me now as a person.

After yet another two years (now this is becoming a habit, the milestones happening two years apart, I mean), here I am transferring HotMomma to a new home, where I can have a better control over the appearance and over-all packaging of the site.

I don’t want to think about what may come next in two years’ time. One thing for sure (God willing, of course), HotMomma will still be here for all of you.

God bless you, guys!
