Thank You, Thank You
Posted in Dusting the Historian's Library and tagged with Blogness, Me, Photos on April 21, 2010For about a month now I’ve been a part of a growing blog community called Words of Wisdom which highlights bloggers who provide great content, or “blog posts that are thought-provoking and/or insightful.” Today I’m honored that they are highlighting me.
Not the best picture of me, but the most recent one I could find!
For those who are visiting here from WOW, I should share a little about me. I’m Ronnica, a 27-year-old single woman who has lived in North Carolina for almost 5 years now. I moved here for graduate school and got “stuck” as I love my church family SO much.
I work at a non-profit where I wear many different hats, but my favorite is running our free tax service (so now I’m breathing easier, post-April 15). I’ve been blogging for almost 4 years now, and named my blog the Ignorant Historian because of my love of history and reading (it’s from a Jane Austen quote).
Most of all, I hope to be defined by who my Savior is and the work He’s doing in me.
Here are three posts that I think will give you a good taste of the Ignorant Historian:
Thanks for stopping by! I love sharing what I have to say (and never seem to run out of things to talk about), and it’s always great having people to discuss it with!
If you’ve never heard of WOW, I recommend checking it out. I’ve already found some great bloggers worth reading through it.

Happy BoN Day! Looks like you’ve got a lot of great stuff to read and I’m sorry I haven’t gotten here sooner. Good thing we’ve got this whole BoN thing so we can all meet each other!

You sound very knowledgeable when it comes to history. I guess I should have taken better notes in my AP history class :-(

I think I know you…May angels be with you.

There is always more to you than meets the eye, oh quiet one. I love reading about you. :)

Congratulations!!! It’s so wonderful to be recognized! (I try to recognize myself when I look in the mirror each morning but that’s another subject!)
LOVED seeing a picture of you. It’s great to put a face with our blog friends. May you get many new followers!

Congrats on BoN Day! Isn’t it fun to be this popular in the blogging world just for one day?!?!?

Congratulations on being today’s ‘BON’. It’s nice to meet someone who has such passion for things they believe in and encourage that same enlightenment in others.
Enjoy your day and rock on!
Peace and serenity,

Carma: The thing about history is that it is hard to remember in the long-term. I do remember tidbits here and there as well as general themes…those are important.
Robynn: I wish I could put more pictures of myself up, I never take them. There’s only so much you can do.
Kathy: Don’t worry! I do those, too (actually there was an our/are mistake in one of the posts I linked to today, but I never saw it before yesterday!).

congrats on being featured! I’d never heard of WOW before, but I’ll be checking them out.

Congrats! I love WOW, I’ve discovered so many wonderful new friends. Love your blog, your post on Civil Discourse really struck a chord with me. You might enjoy reading a post I did for the 9-11 anniversary – great minds think alike and all that :)

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog! And big congrats on being featured! I’m definitely going to check out WOW (I must admit my first instinct was World of Warcraft and yes I may have been slightly excited, lol) – I like to write often about things I hope will help other people in things like overcoming fears etc. :)

Hey there, Ronnie! I’m so happy for you today. Can’t think of a nicer, more thought-provoking blogger to be featured at Words of Wisdom. You really ARE a Blogger of Note!

love that you work for a nonprofit–i had a temporary gig at our refugee relocation office and LOVED it!
i’m off to check out your linked posts…at any way it’s nice to meet you and congrats on being a BON!

Melissa: THANK you! That means a lot.

This was awesome! Congratulations on being featured. Ronnica, you are a positive voice and a role model. I’m thankful to call you friend.
I am SO glad I came by in the wee hours of the morning – it reminded me of something that I’ve got to do (thanks by the way).

Jennifer: Thanks…I’m glad that I reminded you of what you need to do. And based on what I was talking about, I’m going to guess that it was to change your hat. =)
