Welcome to 2018! It is now time to update your "about me" blurb for your blog. You might still have the same interest but I am sure some things have changed.
Things you could include in your "about me:"

- What you are looking forward to learning about this year.
There are lots of people who visit your blog so we want to include information about ourselves but not too much information.
