I can’t believe it – Tip Junkie is now officially three years old. Whoohoo!! It has been a crazy ride. The past three years have been the best and worst years for me personally as I have blogged through my son’s toddler-hood, deciding to medicate my Autistic and ADHD sons, back surgery, my man getting his MBA, loosing big in the economic down turn, getting my first speaking gig, meeting kindred spirits, traveling meeting fellow bloggers, and finding peace in life as it is today.
Not only have I evolved personally, but there have been many changes over the years as TJ has naturally tried to meet the needs of you, the readers.
Tip Junkie started on Blogger in 2007 and was converted over to WordPress in 2010 in an attempt to load faster. To date, Tip Junkie has 1,162 posts full of the most creative ideas from every day women who are just like me and you.
I have a serious addiction to blog buttons and over the years Tip Junkie has had many. It’s so fun to see how much Tip Junkie has evolved.

Congrats on the anniversary/birthday for Tip Junkie. It is so hard to choose JUST ONE to like . I love the sewing pattern one AND the boutique birthday set.Thanks.
Thanks for the book offer and congrats on your anniversary! I do have to say though, if you started in 1997 (Tip Junkie started on Blogger in 1997 …) and it’s only been 3yrs, it’s been 3 LONG years. 😉
