Rock Your Chores: Happy Birthday, Baby!

1st year stats are in! The good news: She's not growing up too fast. 

Here at RYC, we’re in a party mood. (Yep, party of one, but we're still excited!)

This little baby blog turned 1 year old this month. One year of making chores more fun! Break out the virtual cupcakes and confetti. No gifts necessary.

That first day I hit “Publish” on my very first post, I had no idea what I was doing. It was bittersweet, because it was also the one-year anniversary of my mom’s death. I was reminded how precious life is and I wanted to do something I thought she’d be proud of (after I explained to her what a blog is). 
 
When I look back at my early posts, I want to go back and change things up. I look with one eye closed and my teeth clinched. I hope that means I am improving and finding my voice.

​Finding my voice, like it was lost. I guess it kind of was. Enough of the deep stuff—I am bringing down the party vibe.

And now, a tiny little drumroll for ...
Rock Your Chores Year 1 stats! 

39 blog posts

16 RYC games and pursuits

Nearly 11,000 unique visitors to the site! Is this good? I have no idea. But it’s 11,000 more than last year. Woot! Woot!
 
55 email subscribers. Killin’ it, clearly. How about you help me climb over 57?! I believe! Sign up for the Rock Your Chores newsletter.
 
Finally, the top 3 posts from year one: 

No. 1. Why I don’t clean my bathroom anymore
 
No 2. The Car Clutter Challenge
 
No. 3. My future self is a fraud

It’s been a fun ride for me and I hope you’ve enjoyed it a bit too. More than that, I truly hope these silly games and pages have brought you a little inspiration or a few practical ideas.
 
You’re my people, and I am so thankful for all your kind words and support.

​Year 2, here we come! Anyone have some chores to do?

​Later's fine.
