Thank you everybody for the well wishes on the anniversary. After a full day’s work, we had a big dinner and split a bottle of wine – and I promptly fell asleep to “Anything Goes”.  Such as decadent life I lead. 

I’ve been blogging for ~ 2 years; I read over 40 or more on a regular basis. They are listed in my blog roll.

I am surprised by which ones I read viz. who writes them and what they write and why they write. This group is quite various in age, gender, geography and style.  At first I tried to keep track ‘how I found them’ but by now I can’t remember.  Most of them ‘dropped by’ one day, and I returned their call by dropping in on them; and so it continued.  

What is more surprising is how much I have grown to care for you all. In some ways you are strangers. I have only met 3 of you. I don’t call or talk to any of you – you could be ghosts for all I know!  Yet, I am eager to ‘get on line’ each day and find out how everyone is doing.

I am genuinely saddened when you are not doing well, and happy with your good events. And I feel real sorrow when one of you decides to stop writing.   

I sense I read blogs who are genuine and honest in who they are; they put themselves on line, not just a personae.

Blogging and the internet are too young to have established rules and expectations. So where this is going is unknown (at least to me). Being on a journey with people whom Fate delivered is exciting.

Nothing is marred by my expectations.

I guess this is a long-winded way of saying I appreciate you all, and I feel honored you would share your lives with me.
