Neglected

by Veronica on December 2, 2008

Now I know that I have been neglecting this blog terribly, but really, is that any reason for over 50 people to unsubscribe? Really?

Hmmph.

I will try and get something of substance up later today, okay? Just bear with me here.

Lori December 2, 2008 at 10:31 am: Are you sure that many people did? Maybe just a computor glitch? I don’t subscribe, but I do read every day that you post. I can go huge gaps between posts too, and feel bad when I don’t get on others as much as I would like, but real life marches on!
Ali December 2, 2008 at 11:11 am: They’re probably just jealous of your fabulousness. Don’t give it too much thought.

Alis last blog post..Oh yeah, I rock.
frogpondsrock December 2, 2008 at 11:28 am: *phew puff puff pant pant phew* There you go sweety I have just subscribed 50 times for you…. I think my reader will now explode but anything to make you happy.. *gasps for breath*

Jennifer, Playgroups are no place for children December 2, 2008 at 12:17 pm: I’d bet a million bucks that you didn’t lose 50 subscribers. That number is so finicky and based on the number of people who open their feed readers. Since it was a holiday weekend here in the US, I bet that LOTS of people ignored their computers, so subscribers numbers fell! I know mine did!

Jennifer, Playgroups are no place for childrens last blog post..Well, that’s done
Jennie December 2, 2008 at 12:46 pm: I still love you!
Dina December 2, 2008 at 12:55 pm: I don’t subscribe, but I do read!!

That’s weird about 50 people. Did it happen all at once? I’m guessing it’s a glitch. Or did you say something horribly shocking and offensive?

lceel December 2, 2008 at 3:03 pm: I don’t believe that. 50? No – that can’t be right.

Sharon December 2, 2008 at 4:31 pm: I’ve been away for a few days but can’t believe you’ve ‘lost’ that many subscribers. I’m still going to continue reading your blog anyway.

Do NOT get stressed about this Veronica! Relax, think of the baby. Amy and the pets seem to be creating enough problems for you without worrying about your readership too. FWIW Amy will move on to the next stage in her development soon and, as with all the other stages, there will be plenty more plus and minus elements to ‘enjoy’. Pets, you have me there ‘cos I could never be bothered keeping animals, and, if your experiences are anything to go by, I’m really glad I didn’t 😉

Have some chocolate and a quiet sit down.
Leslie December 2, 2008 at 5:09 pm: It’s probably a glitch.

But, this is one of the things about blogging that bugs me – whenever life happens and I miss a few days of writing, or if I’m not commenting (especially the commenting) as often as usual, I lose readers. It sucks. It makes me feel bad. I hate the whole, “I’ll only comment on your blog if you comment on my blog” thing. Perhaps if I were a better writer, I wouldn’t have that problem.

Anyhoo, you’re a great writer. I’m sure it’s a glitch and those 50 will show back up in your numbers in a day or so.

river December 2, 2008 at 7:57 pm: So you lost a few readers. Does it really matter in the big scheme of things? Are you blogging for your own personal pleasure? Or are you blogging to please a bunch of faceless people who don’t know you and you don’t know them? Like those above me, I’m still here.
Trish December 2, 2008 at 10:26 pm: How rude but more likely a hiccup – I had it happen to me (not 50 – oh my stars I wish) when I lost 20 once … it might bring you double or nothing now.

SusanB December 3, 2008 at 6:32 am: Freaking internet. I just typed a nice little comment where I reasoned about Thanksgiving and Christmas causing these troubles and warned you to watch out for the same stupid technological phenomenon at Christmas, but then my computer ate it. Argh!

Anyway…I’ll still be here! =)

SusanBs last blog post..Thanks, Internets!
Cat December 3, 2008 at 6:38 am: I’m still here!!! Just WAAAAAY behind on my reading. Promise to catch up. See? I started already.

Bobbi December 3, 2008 at 8:11 am: I didn’t unsubscribe. I think that number was wrong.

Barbara December 3, 2008 at 9:03 am: Damn, I haven’t been commenting regularly but I’m still here! I subscribed to your kitchen blog and then found that I never commented because I got the email and read it but then never got round to going to the blog to comment. Maybe that’s why they unsubscribed – so that they’d remember to give you comment love more often.
