Interaction.

- - - - Monday, December 7, 2009 - - - -

As I've mentioned many times before, I am really thankful for blogging and how easy it now is to stay connected. And let's face it, blogging is really fun! Even if you don't write blogs, you probably enjoy reading them {And I feel I can safely assume this because you are reading this blog right now...}

I've been amazed with how many people I have met through blogging, usually being connected through a 'friend of a friend's blog page. I just love hearing other people's stories and views on life. This thought made me wonder how many of you ended up on my page that way, through a 'friend of a friend' or even just randomly. Lately I've noticed my little visitor counter at the bottom of my page ticking away and am honestly baffled by how many people care enough to read my blog.

So here's my thought... I would LOVE if everyone who reads my blog would post a comment at the end of this post. Whether I know you or whether you are a 'friend of a friend', it would be really encouraging to me for you to say a quick hello. If you want to, put a link to your blog so I can follow you too! Even if you prefer to remain a Busy Thoughts anonymous reader, just post a simple "Hey I read your blog -Anonymous".
Ok, everybody in? Oh and on a side note, whenever someone leaves a comment from now on, I will always try to write back. That way there will be more interaction and not so much of a one-way conversation on your part. Much more fun :) Anyways, thanks for reading! Hope you'll say hello!

Hello! :) I have been reading your blog for about a month now and enjoy reading your posts and reading about life as an Air Force Wife. My husband is currently in Air Force ROTC and will be attending pilot school sometime after commissioning in May. About a month ago, I did a google search for UPT spouse and found your blog! Thanks for sharing your stories. I look forward to reading them!

As you know I read your blogs everyday. I can't wait to read the next one. As you also know, your mother is not a very good writer.....hence the whole math degree thing. You are the most amazing writer! Your blog page is unbelievable! I cannot comprehend how to do something like that. It's so hard to have you so far away, but the blog's really help. I so thankful you love to blog.

Love, mama

Hi, I knew you from Biola through random friends...I am a friend of Katie Newman and also found your blog on Anna Dietzens website. My husband is a firefighter so I can somewhat relate to your stories. I also have a puppy and just love reading people's blogs! You are very creative and encouraging! Thanks for letting me read.

Hi Lindsay!
I know you from BIOLA :). I too am a follower. You do such a wonderful job at conveying your personality through your bog. I feel as if I have talked to you every day since we graduated. Your posts encourage me more than you will ever know. Being here in Minot and reading your blogs gives me hope that there are other fun wives out here to hang with!
