Something About Love blog by Gratiana Lovelace Hits 500,000 views! July 16, 2016 Gratiana Lovelace (Post #939)

By the time you read this, my little blog here called Something About Love will have reached 500,000 views!  Ah!  Here we go:

I know!  I can’t believe it!  Neither can the couple at right by RCA.  Ha!  Shock (him)!
Mortification (her)!  Dumbfounded to say the least!   And thanks to Armitage Agonistes for the original image above (my/Grati edit)!

And as my dear sweet hubby said—always putting things into perspective—500K is a good sized town.  Ha!  Or I might say–if we had a way to analyze it–probably the number of exclamation points (!) used by me, thus far, to date.  Then again, 500K could be a conservative figure.  *wink*

And all I can say to you, as you visit here, is …  a heartfelt thank you!  Thank you for your comments, your likes, your support and encouragement of my stories and essays, and most especially, for your friendship!

Hugs & Cheers!  Grati  ;->
P.S. Oh and every benchmark moment has to have a little more Richard Armitage in it. Ha! So enjoy!
