Hanging out in bed the other night (Alone. I was alone. See, mom? Not slutty all the time!), it ran through my mind how very lucky I am to be doing what I’m doing.
Despite the workload, erratic paychecks, never-ending pressure to produce, and fractured thoughts that come from working around children, I am infinitely thankful that I can help support my family while I’m at home with them.
And yet I don’t express that gratitude nearly enough. So today is the day:
- Thank you for reading here each day, or each week, or every so often. It cheers me to see the stat counter turning over, not because I care so much about the numbers (though I do, just not so much anymore) but because it shows that you’ve been here. There’s something very comforting about that.
- Thank you for dropping tips into my PayPal account. It’s helped more than I can say.
- Thank you for reading what I’ve put up over at Jane’s Guide. (I do get a lil lonely over there. Would love to have evidence *cough*comments*cough* of your visits from time to time. HINT HINT.)
- Thank you for stopping by to ask questions or say hi while I’m doing the Expert Help thing. It’s been a real pleasure to meet those of you who have utilized that service.
- Thank you for visiting the affiliate links I’ve posted. It tickles me to no end when I think of y’all using the stuff you’ve purchased. Yes, I fantasize about it. Is that wrong?
- Thank you for all the advice / opinions / encouragement you’ve posted when I’ve asked for feedback. I feel incredibly lucky to have supportive readers who (almost) never give me a hard time. I know how rare that can be in this medium where so many have been hassled by trolls, stalkers or the painfully ignorant.
- Thank you for pushing me on the book proposal. I will finish it. Soon. If I have to write it in blood, not necessarily my own.
Thank you. I do appreciate all of you.
And now, just for fun, I’m posting (after the cut) a photo I took a couple years ago that I found recently on someone’s Flickr. Enjoy!
