THOUGHT THIS WAS CUTE.....



Now on to some serious business. Those who read me often know that I love to comment to comments. Now lets say that I get 30 comments on any given day, 10 of those comment will have no-reply. (Yes, I have talked about this before) This has really been bothering me lately. I want those of you who I consider to be some of my closet blogging friends to understand that I am not avoiding your comments. Sometimes I will go over to your blog and write my comment in your comment sections but that takes so much time :( I do not answer comments in my comment section, I read all my comments in my Gmail. So please don't think that I don't appreciate each and every comment you place on my blog. When I go through my reader and read your post I usually forget to thank you for your comment. When I first started blogging I didn't have my email address available. I changed that a long time ago and there has been absolutely no ill effects with having my email address visible. You may want to try it!

Hope your having a beautiful weekend.

As soon as I get a husband, a dog and a car I will have to try that one out!

Debby, I always love your comments and the response to any comment I may leave. If for some reason you would stop responding to any of my comments, I would still know that you care and have just lost the time (after all, there is Skye and the husband as well...) in the day!

I haven't quite figured it out with wordpress yet haha.

I love that little bit about the dog! They're always happy to see you! :)

BNM said...

I agree! I wish to reply to people when the comment but they dont have their email where I can.. I always wonder if they think im ignoring them!

Love the one about the dog and husband! ROFLOL!

I love reading blogs, and whether or not I get a response back is okay. Life is full of so many things to do each day, it's hard to sometimes fit everything in.

Still a reader, no matter what!

Blessings~

Loved the hubby in the trunk idea.

Kristie said...

That was really cute! :-)

I haven't had troubles with my e-mail being visible either...thankfully! :-)

Mommy, I'm Home said...

THanks for the laugh this morning, Debby. I shared it with my husband and even he laughed...

Valerie @ Inner Child Fun said...

Now, THAT is a true test, indeed!!!

nancygrayce said...

That is so funny! I'm sure it would be my dogs!

Just Be Real said...

Love the picture.

Good post Debby. When I first started blogging, I would try and respond to each comment I received, but then it was getting overwhelming because of the amount of comments. Once in a while I will respond on my own blog again. Blessings.

That... that dog and husband in the trunk thing, I want it on a t-shirt! ROTF! It made my day :-D

About the comments, most bloggers never reply to their reader's comments at all, or they do one bulk posting... Take it easy, we know you care my dear!

I also try to reply to all comments but some days I'm too tired, too busy, or life just takes over - it happens!

Debby,

I think that is the biggest challenge for both bloggers and readers alike. We find some many interesting blogs and sign up to follow them.

Then we realize one day, we're following over 200 blogs and how can we possibly find time in our life to stop by and read each and every one, plus leave comments.

However, I believe if you stop by and read, leave a comment. Tell the writer what you thought, did it inspire you, make you cry, can you relate or I just plain don't agree, but it lets us know that just besides all our followers, there are people out there really reading what we've written.

I love being here. It inspires me each and every time. I also agree with the picture you posted. I know my dog would be sooooo happy to see me. The hubby on the other hand, I'd better run once I open the trunk!


Love and Hugs ~ Kat

Caroline said...

That is so funny and I just love it.
I never hear anything from anyone but I love blogging and I know with 4 kids I get really busy. I always try to leave a comment.
Happy Sunday to you !!!!

Love Being A Nonny said...

No need to comment on every post. I do comment on my favorites though. Sometimes it gets tough...we all understand!

Thanks for the *funny*!!

Colleen - the AmAzINg Mrs. B said...

I don't comment to my comment-ers..guess I never thought I should? Love the paisley background and LOVE the dog :-)

xinex said...

I set mine up so I can be emailed from my blog but I do not really know if it works cause I never email myself..Christine

xinex said...

Hi again, Debby,I forgot to respond to your question. It's hard for me to leave my grandsons but I have obligations at home. I have to work on our income taxes for a starter. Skype will have to do for a while...Christine

Laura said...

HA HA HA HA HA! I love that! And on a serious note- I feel the same and have been meaning to get over here to tell you- yes- I am from Michigan and the Saginaw I speak of is Saginaw Michigan... Sometimes I will read the comments that come to my email at work but won't have time to get on a blog or go and reply- it's odd that you wrote this because I was just thinking it myself!!!

Unknown said...

Ha! Seriously cute and funny...kind of sad though. The pic reminds me so much of our lab we lost in May.

Michele said...

Deb, you are too cute. Too much for words!!!

BTW, I tried one of the bathwash packets today that you sent back around Christmas. OMG. My skin feels so blissful!!!

j said...

I think you are a wonderful and thoughtful blogger. I'm thankful for you!

Kristin - The Goat said...

Ahhh, thankfully I'm not one of them - the dog, the husband or the no-reply :)

I think I'm back into the swing of things! I've missed you, Debby!

christy rose said...

What a cute dog!!!! And a really cute experiment that I do not think that I will every try. :)

Holly said...

It is nice being able to email back to a comment. I wish more people would have their emails available!

Sandy said...

Sort of like my saying that if Rosey and I are ever both in a burning building and Paul is around, I'm in trouble.

Lorie Shewbridge said...

I laughed so hard at the dog/spouse photo, hubby asked me what was so funny. He agreed and we both knew for sure Nano would be really happy to see us!

Now on to your post... this is something that I could have written word for word! I really like commenting back to people who leave a comment on my blog, but I so wish they would leave their email address.
