As most of you know, I love to reciprocate the love and support you give. However, as this blog continues to grow in readership and followings, it has gotten more difficult to get to everyone and takes more time to do so. Also, WordPress only shows a list of up to 1000 followers and I’ve much more than exceeded that limit. It pains me that I can’t get to everyone right away.
But know this. It may take a while, but if you haven’t seen me on your blog in a while, rest assured that, somehow, someway, I will find you and I will reciprocate the love you have shown me. I typically try to read and support up to 100 blogs per day which will still allow me time for my marriage, family, errands, and chores around the home. Know that I’m trying my level best to get to each and every one of your blogs and comments to read and reply.
Also, know that I thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart! The flood of love and support is so refreshing and I can’t thank you enough!
Wishing you all an abundance of blessings!
Your conscientiousness is refreshing. I have literally just started so I hope that when I get to where you are I can follow the great example you have set for new bloggers like me.
Thank you so much, Sherlene! I so appreciate you! And you will. I’ve been blogging for six years and I started out slow. I was extremely shy when I began so, for the first 4 years, this blog didn’t go very far. I read others blogs and was pleasantly surprised at how open and honest most bloggers were. In that, my confidence grew and not only online but in the real world also. Blogging has changed so many things in me for the better, both online and in the real world and I couldn’t be more thankful to bloggers everywhere for the realness and honestly in their posts! Again, you will get there. It might take some time but you will get to where you want to be and when you do, you’ll be amazed! I promise! ππ
Thanks for the tips!
You’re most welcome! ππ
Thank you for all that you do! Your blog is truly helping people! <3
Thank you so much! πYou don’t know what this means! ππ
Completely understandable and such a small price to pay for helping so many! ! I love reading your blog, I don’t need you to acknowledge me for reading it. I appreciate all you do, thank you!
You’re most welcome, Stella! I’m so glad this helps you! It means so much! ππ
Perfectly understandable Cherie, although I am always grateful whenever you or anyone else puts a ‘Like’ or comments, even negatively on my blog. To quote John Lennon, “Life is what happens when you are busy doing other things.” Keep up the good work. BTW, I sent you an email a few days ago.
Oh, me! I haven’t checked my email in a few days! I’ll definitely do it today! <3
I hear ya my friend! This is the hard part and you did mean shows 100 not 1,000 right? That is what makes it tough. Love your new 2 posting a day….. I knew it would be awesome and it is!
π
Thank you so much, Cindy! ππMy list only shows 1000. But I try to visit up to 100 blogs per day. There are days I don’t make it to 100 though. LOL And you’re right! It’s tough. But this is my passion so that’s what makes it worthwhile. π
i do the same…. but mine stops at 100 that can be seen? hmmm I do know as I love it too!~ π
Gotcha! Maybe my settings are set different, I donno. π
hmmmm i’ve gotta check// ππ
Haha! I wouldn’t know how right off the bat! I’ve learned a lot about the WordPress infrastructure, but I’m still a WP dummy compared to a lot of seasoned bloggers! LOLOL
I struggle with this choice, the time required, the life to be lived, and the commitment felt. I understand. I loved that you took the time to share and put this in words.
Thank you so much! I so appreciate you and I feel much better now that I have posted what I’ve wanted to say for months! πππ
You are very welcome π

No worries. We know you are there everyday on your blog with new news and information. Most of us (me) can’t possibly match your output and we remain in awe of your ability to juggle all your tasks and responsibilities. Dial things down and take a breather. Concentrate on the essentials.
Thank you so much, Handyguy! It’s only because I’m a housewife. I promise you that if I had to work fulltime, there’s no way I’d be able to keep up. I’m thankful and blessed because my husband is a trucker and makes enough for the both of us. And because we have pets (2 dogs, 1 cat), he prefers me to stay at home. Another good thing is that if the grandkids want to come visit, I’m available to them. πβ€οΈ
Cherie, the most important thing is that you take care of YOU first. ππ
Thank you so much, Miriam! And I sure will, sweetie! π
Girlfriend, I guess you are going to have to hire an assistant! LOL πβπΌπ€ We appreciate all you do and you must be doing something right to have the readership volume that you have. We appreciate ya Cherie!!! π€ππ₯°
Thank you so much, Kym! I’ve been blogging six years this coming March 7th and I’m excited for the future of the blog and the people it helps and will help! ππππ€

Trying to be like you. Gotta stick to the grind!!! ππ₯³π€
ππ€£ππ€£ You’re a trip, girl! ππ
Yeah, sometimes I go further and become a voyage or an expedition! πππππ€£ππ
ππ€£ππ€£There ya go, girl!

Thank you so much for this message. You are doing very important work and we can see that clearly.
Thank you so much! This means more than you know! πππΉπ
I understand the time constraint. Though I donβt have near the followers that you have, nor follow as many blogs, I canβt get to everybody everyday, not and have a life outside WordPress. I visit when I can, and would expect no more from you, Cherie. π
Thank you so much, Kathy! This means more than you know! πππΉ

This humbles me and makes me appreciate so much your support Cherie.. You need an assistant or clone of you for this now.. just joshing but seriously THANK YOU,
Thank you so much! π Love the part about the clones! ππ I think we could all use one from time to time.
π€β€
Completely understand. Never bully yourself π into feeling obligated to respond. I will–and would–follow you even if you didn’t!
Thank you so much, Texas Jack! That means more than you know. But your posts are too good to miss! I might be late but I won’t miss them. I’ll catch up.π
Iβm always happy to see you on my blog, and grateful when you can make time for it in your busy day. Keep doing what you do, and doing it your way: weβre here for you π
Thank you so much, Clive! You don’t know how much this means! πππ€
