Excuse me!!

What the Hellblue moon? I wake up this AM, and the 25 followers I PROUDLY boasted to McHubby about had dropped to 23!! What up with that!!! Did I not say the right things? Did I say something that offended them? Or maybe my ramblings were just too boring for them... I don't get it.

I take clicking that follow button VERY seriously. Its like picking who you'd sit with at lunch in high school. I never follow just for contests, and rarely on just one post. I like to come in, make myself comfortable, and then hit your archives... rifling through them like your medicine cabinet (come on... we've all done it) The more Prozac I find, the more likely I am to follow.

I can honestly say I've never "Unfollowed" a blog. I don't even know what the right term for that is... even if I lose interest in a blog, which has only happened once, I keep the blog on my role because its like visiting with that old friend you only see once a year, or only talk to on facebook.

When I started this blog way back when, I had one follower. And it was me, because I couldn't understand the ins and outs of blogger. Now I have 23 of you who pop in to read my thoughts and rambles from time to time. And I love it!

So... for the two of you that left, you probably wont even see this, but should you stumble back, if I offended you with my materialistic Christmas list, or whining about McHubby being gone, then well... maybe you should have looked around a little more before you decided to follow. Maybe I'll see you around... Maybe I won't.

For those of you sticking around, I have my first review and giveaway in the works. :) Its on a subject very close to my heart, and I am more then happy to be doing it... now... to figure out how many hoops you'll have to jump through to win it...

Oh the power.... Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha *cough cough* ha!

  3. it sucks losing followers. i lost one a couple weeks ago and wondered what i did 'wrong'...but then i laughed b/c it's MY blog and i can do what i want. we all aim to please in some way, but at the end of the day, if you're happy with what you're doing, that's all that matters...

  5. Who wants them anyway...I keep wondering about having 100 Followers and only 20 comment. Does that mean only 20 came that day? This whole thing plays with your mind a little. Keep saying to myself that what I wanted originally was to create something and have people see it. I didn't care then how big that number was. It is hard to get clear on what makes a blog successful isn't it. I think your blog is great. Holly

  6. I don't play the numbers game any more; I have 50+ but I know not all of them read my blog every day. And besides, this blog is for you, not anyone else.
