Love the quote! I should ha...Thank you, Mrs. Mac. Love the quote! I should have it tattooed on me somewhere . . . but i wouldn't see it enough if i put it on my forehead!<br /><br />Rosemary, how very kind of you to say. :) We could sure have some interesting discussions, couldn't we? And we could have so much fun making cards together (although you completely outshine me in that area).<br /><br />I don't want to have a blog like the Pioneer Woman, not that i could. I sure enjoy reading hers, but she is not in the "i aspire to be like her" category. Like you, i simply want to be myself, real and grounded.<br /><br />Hugs right back from the West Coast (tho sadly, i think a cool wind is coming with them!)Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03272307621143522274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7842684642117669334.post-7666690811312688012010-11-06T07:01:11.558-07:002010-11-06T07:01:11.558-07:00You always make me think long and hard about topic...You always make me think long and hard about topics and that's a good thing - you have insight that I find very interesting and informative. Would we agree on everything in real life? Probably not, BUT I do think we would have great friendly discussions that we'd enjoy and be able to stay friends. Which is amazing in this day and age.<br /><br />I like your blog not only for the discussions and topics you pick up but also for the photos and stories, the crafts and progress you are making with them.<br /><br />I don't know that I'd want the pressure of a MEGA blog like the Pioneer Woman because I wouldn't want the pressure of keeping up the quality and quantity of posts. I just like having my blog to keep me, dare I say it, real and grounded. Anyway, sending you hugs from the East Coast.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14721780347274988492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7842684642117669334.post-73507001441263213402010-11-06T03:54:31.594-07:002010-11-06T03:54:31.594-07:00I love peeking in on you each day reading your ...I love peeking in on you each day reading your 'thankful' posts! I just read the following quote today and though I'd share it with you.<br /><br />"I am still determined to be cheerful and to be happy in whatever situation I may be, for I have learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our disposition and not our circumstances." ~Martha Washington<br /><br />Have a blessed weekend!Mrs. Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06644129213141875138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7842684642117669334.post-9958884452425154932010-11-05T22:35:18.188-07:002010-11-05T22:35:18.188-07:00Well, i wasn't clear on that! I was not speak...Well, i wasn't clear on that! I was not speaking of either of you!<br /><br />When i go to blogs where we share back and forth commenting at one another's blogs, however that happens - my blog, your blog, in an email - i know that you care! Both of you come here & let me know you came. :)<br /><br />I was talking about several blogs i've visited where i might read for a few months & comment a few times, but i never know if they even bother reading the comments. Or they seem to respond to other people but never to me. I know i'm being a bit thin-skinned here, but if it happens enough, i think they would just prefer i didn't bother. <br /><br />I've had a few folks in my life (mostly in college & just after) whom i just seem to irritate. I never understood why or what it was i did. I just knew that they didn't have a lot of patience with me. If it was someone i had to be with (like a professor) i learned (usually) to keep my mouth shut. I assume, at certain blogs, that if i'm making comments but the other person doesn't seem interested in responding there, or reading my blog & responding, that i've run up against someone who gets irritated by me. <br /><br />If it is a blog like the Pioneer Woman, who has thousands if not hundreds of thousands of readers, i'm reading there just for enjoyment not to make a "connection." <br /><br />But if i'm going to a blog like my own, every day stuff, and they have between 10 & 100 readers/followers, then i am looking to trying to "connect" if even in a small way. Some blogs i follow are for specific info - money tips, crafting, etc. I rarely comment there & if i do i'm not looking to make that same connection. <br /><br />I don't know if i explained this any better. And, of course, i never know if anyone ever returns to read my response to comments, but i know i do myself at blogs who do the same thing. I appreciate when someone acknowledges me & so i try to do that here.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03272307621143522274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7842684642117669334.post-77408331024556773632010-11-05T16:11:20.499-07:002010-11-05T16:11:20.499-07:00I used to answer my comments and it sounds like I ...I used to answer my comments and it sounds like I should go back to doing it. But I wanted to beable to go and see other peoples blog and comment on their blog and I always find myself on the computer for hours and I thought that I would save time if I just did the comments on their blog! I do care and I would rather read your blog and comment here than at my comments page. I love to hear all my comments just so you know that! I love to hear from you and I do love to visit.lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01998455958377639450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7842684642117669334.post-64008608260276076802010-11-05T13:01:04.852-07:002010-11-05T13:01:04.852-07:00all great things to be thankful for! I have never ...all great things to be thankful for! I have never had pine nuts, but I have heard they are good. I'm really bad about responding back when someone comments on my blog, I know there are people who are faithful about it. I do though appreciate everyone's comments and I also, if they ask a question or comment about something that I have something more to say about, I'll leave a comment on their blog after I comment about their entry and usually will doing it in brackets, make sense?<br /><br />for example:<br /><br />(thanks for following my blog :)<br /><br />have a good weekend!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
