They were lovely.<BR/><BR/>Often people post off your post without comment. I've done it. So have others.

When I look at my incoming links one out of 4 will be some odd ball website that is a bunch of gobbly gook. Just a spider who has grabbed a quote & thrown it out there. Don't feel too bad!

As I've continued with blogging over the course of the past year I've continued to re-evaluate just why I am doing what I'm doing. Sometimes what we expect at the beginning is not the final reality. In my case, I hoped for lots of interest from many extended family members and found that I had more readers that weren't Lisa / Smallest Leafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811771280872197611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671432547717724571.post-86697603539526971982008-08-13T20:16:00.000-07:002008-08-13T20:16:00.000-07:00Sheri, You built a blog.

Let me ask you this, and I'm not being critical (I don't know if you have left any comments anywhere or not), how many blog posts have you commented on? If you haven't left many comments on other blog posts then you are typical of the "normal" reader and/or blogger.<BR/><BR/>I'll admit, I do get bummed out sometimes when I write what I think Becky Wisemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08074730861618500334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671432547717724571.post-36829847046713476482008-08-13T05:59:00.000-07:002008-08-13T05:59:00.000-07:00Randy made me famous this week but I feel like a p...Randy made me famous this week but I feel like a porch dweller too. My Web site gets a lot of hits (from educators)but blogging is so new still to a lot of people, I wouldn't worry about comments.<BR/><BR/>I get comments only if someone wants me to look for a gravestone or if they want me to do research.<BR/><BR/>Randy is right. The great part about this is that we learn from each other and enjoyMidge Frazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817669854967092840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8671432547717724571.post-63137659301200575512008-08-12T22:05:00.000-07:002008-08-12T22:05:00.000-07:00Sheri,You can stay on the porch if you want.

Too bad - it's what blogging is really about. Fun, pleasure, sharing, etc.<BR/><BR/>Receiving no comments is pretty typical. Eastman is the only blogger who gets a lot of comments, but that's because he has about 100,000 visits a month, and Randy Seaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477703429102065294noreply@blogger.com
