While I have been keeping up my blog, it hadn't dawned on me until this morning that I haven't heard/read a single comment from any of my usual readers. Huh, I thought ... I guess everyone is just so wrapped up in their holidays that they haven't been checking in. That's OK ...I had something on my mind this morning (although it's now gone, the fleeting thing) and as I was about to hit "New Post," I noticed that someone had left a comment on a previous post. That's odd, I thought. I didn't know that was there. I read it, then scrolled down to the next post, discovering more comments ... What's going on here?
Oh, how wrong I was! This was not a case of ceased blog traffic ... There were comments galore! A few weeks' worth of comments, just waiting to be read ... and I never saw them. Why?
Nothing but a "duh" thing. A big "duh" thing. A few weeks ago we had changed our telephone/internet provider, and I never thought of changing my email notification to the new address. So every time a comment was posted -- and thank you all, so much, for staying connected! -- I never received the notification. Right ... duh ...
So I just spent quite a bit of time reading all of your lovely comments -- it was so good to hear from all of you, as belated as it was. I was happy to hear of your Christmas celebrations, of your fun in the snow, of the cyber-slapping after my Facebook "slam" (hee hee -- perhaps that could be a New Year's Resolution? Although that won't bode so well, since A) I don't make New Year's Resolutions because B) I never keep them) ...
Ah, to have such wonderful friends! A true gift indeed!
