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.

May you live as long as a saguaro cactus, and as wealthily as Prosper Mérimée!
Thank you, compliment accepted, graciously.
Congratulations, Phil. It’ll be 10 years for me in November. That said, I redesigned my blog a couple or three years ago and deleted everything up until then. So I guess you could say I lost a few posts too. Nice thing about that is that I can re-invent some of those old posts and they’ll be brand new to my more recent followers. Upside to everything, Phil.
10 years is also a long time. Most blogs last an average of 3 years before people run out of things to say.
Happy 14th blogoversary, Phil! I look forward to being amused by many more of your posts. 😁🤪🤠
Fourteen years is long time to be writing anything. I remember when I first discovered your blog. I read almost two years of your posts because I couldn’t stop laughing. You make people laugh and you make people think. Fourteen years of that is something worth noting and celebrating.
Congrats from The Kid From Queens.
Congratulations! I think it’s nice to have these reminders.
