WordPress sent me a note today informing me that Notes From The Cactus Patch has been on their platform for 14 years. I have shirts older than that, and maybe some socks and a few pairs of underwear, but I was taken aback; it only seems like a few years. I did lose some posts, around fifty or so, early on because I was technically ignorant—and still am, but better. Not that this means anything, but just to let my readers know. I’m sure some of you have been here as long.
