I don’t often do this……
I never really check blogger stats. Well I did this morning – great timing. All I can say is that you to everyone. You are so very kind and so very much appreciated.
I think back to 2017 and the first part of 2018. I had just started blogging. In the first year I had 300 views and 20 followers. I was in awe that anyone would take the time to read my waffles. Imagine how I feel now. I get really embarrassed when I see stunning blogs with such brilliantly talented writers with not many views. All I can say is stick with it. If a muppet like me can do it then someone as talented as you can absolutely soar.
THANK YOU
You deserve it. I love your blog
Congratulations π

Thanks for the encouragement. I have felt like stopping when I get less than 20 views or likes. It can be disheartening, you know?

You speak from the heart, have some great topics and are often super funny, that’s why π Views are not everything though, I write for myself first, others second. If someone wants to follow me then that’s great, but if they don’t, that’s fine too π

You’re welcome! I’d been blogging for a year or two before I even knew about stats. (LOL!). For me, writing is akin to journaling. I mostly do it for myself. I love following along with you and your son.

Congratulation Gary! I found your blog when WP suggested it as a blog that I should read. I started to read a few posts and realized that this is a blog that I would love to follow. I might not be the one that comment that often, mostly because English is not my native language and that makes it hard to express the feelings and thought that I would like to say. But I always read your posts and I love your photos. The poppy in this post is beautiful.
Take care and all the best to you and Hawklad!

Best not do that. Iβm not very good. I once had to convince an auditor that my accounting error on the final accounts was down to a new thing called incremental drift. It bought me a year to fix said mess up…. That mess up is still buried deep in the governments accounts….π
