Thank you...


Three years ago today, I started this site.  Above is my first banner; I kept it because I'm sentimental.  There have been many since but those I delete.  Funny thing about the first one is that I had no idea what I was doing and how I achieved the effect of the 'double image'.  To this day, I still don't know and I chalk it up to one of those neat accidents.

Some people might be wondering how it has been three years when the archive says otherwise and the reason for that is the 'original' site got accidentally deleted in what I now refer to as the 'Friday the 13TH fire'.  It was unfortunate, it was not deliberate and it's pointless to cry over spilt milk.  Over 3,000 posts are gone...it's done.

I heard from a lot of people that urged me to start again and bring back 'Vinnie Vidi Vici'. Your support meant a lot to me...a lot.  It wasn't hard; like slipping on a pair of comfortable slippers.  I thank the friends who have been there all along for hanging in there and to the new followers that have been kind enough to join the ride.

An exciting year is unfolding in Vincent's career and the best is yet to come.  And now Leila has begun her journey by moving to New York and furthering her studies.  I can't wait for what the future holds for both of them.  I invite you to check in and follow what's going on.

Thank you, everyone!

I'm so glad that you pieced the blog back together again. I was so bummed out when the old one went away. :( But hey you're back and congratulations on your blogoversary! You might even say that the double image was a 'happy' accident. ;D

Thank you all for your great sentiments...I am overwhelmed! I have enjoyed each and everyone of you and it's all of you that have helped make my site successful. JoJo, I was going to make a reference to 'Happy Accidents' but I could almost hear a collective groan, LOL, so I spared you all.

Thanks for restarting your fabulous blog, it's definitely my favourite. We get hardly any info on Vincent here in Australia, pretty much everything I learn is from here. Love the double image. :)

Nantz said...

Awwww, thank you, Leigh...I get so much love from Australia!
