I've enjoyed getting to know you, too! I think anything I say will sound totally pathetic after that heartfelt comment, but your blog is important to me and so are you. I appreciate you!!

Honestly, I don't mind entering in the words as long as I can read them. There were a few days when I swear "they" were making the words impossible on purpose (and if I remember it was YOUR blog). :P<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I wanted to let you know that I've loved getting to know you over the past year--I have come to look forward to your humor and honesty and insanely beautiful pictures. You've truly been one of those bloggers, Nancy, who has touched my life and I wanted to thank you.

I had to start keeping track of a few favorites. It doesn't really bother me to enter letters, although it takes extra time. I got rid of mine, too, but I do moderate my comments because I've had some hideous spam, in the past -- as in expletive-laden diatribe. The strange thing is that they had nothing whatsoever to do with my blog; they were just insane rants. Well, that and I've gotten a few advertisements based on key words.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-44682859161167966292008-12-03T19:08:00.000-06:002008-12-03T19:08:00.000-06:00I have to laugh at your writing down the verificat...I have to laugh at your writing down the verification "words."
