Every Monday morning I read Post Secret. When I have gone through all the new secrets and I get to the bottom of the screen I check the visitor counter. I then refresh the screen to see the new count number. I do the math and determine how many people were reading the secrets at the same time. I do it not to feel less lonely or anything like that - I just find it really interesting. This week there were 595 other people reading secrets with me.
For whatever reason I was able to post a great deal in the month of May. Some of this could be attributed to the Tulip Festival and the growing flowers in the backyard while others are probably due to my new found liking of the site One Minute Writer. But in looking back in the posts there were a lot that were unrelated to any of the aforementioned topics. I enjoy posting on a regular basis and hope that my readers enjoy it too. I don't get a great deal of feedback from people, in fact I get almost none, but I still enjoy this blog and I can tell that people do visit from the counter. So here's to another great month of regular posting - hopefully.
Just a quick note to say that there isn't much time left to vote in my first poll. Right now there is a four way tie which will make it harder for me to write about the results. There has to be more than 4 people who visit this site. So have your say, vote and be heard - come on, it's anonymous afterall.
I really enjoyed this past weekend with the families. Dave and I drove to Peterborough on Saturday and then joined his mom's side of the family in Newmarket for Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday. Monday we headed to Prescott to spend the day with my family. Tyler and Lynn were already there as they had drove up the day before and it was really nice to see them again.
This weekend was also my parent's anniversary (11th), my mom's birthday (11th) and Tyler and Lynn's 1 month anniversary (13th) - so there was even more to celebrate than just Thanksgiving itself. It was a very nice relaxing day.
Unfortunately I got sick sometime during the weekend, though I think it was building up throughout last week.
So yesterday I registered for a counter for this blog and then today when I read Chris' comment on my previous blog I felt a little better about having got it. I was just going to let it sit down there at the bottom and hope that no one noticed it and I could get a little information back, but I guess I will make it more public. I do have to take into consideration that I visit my own blog at least once a day and it seems to be counting each visit (instead of registering my IP address or realizing that I own the blog).
