A Salute to Donnamarie!

I had read and answered most of my e-mails earlier today before I relaxed and read the paper. After I cleaned one of the birds cages I decided to check the e-mail again as I don't like it to build up and I usually will post my blogs when I am done with that.

About an hour ago I clicked on my e-mail and saw that there were 52 of them--it boggled my mind! As I started to look over the list I was floored to see that 41 of them were from Donnamarie. She had been tied up with her folks most of last month and really didn't have time to blog a lot let alone comment on blogs.

Obviously she is catching up--taking the time to read each one and comment on them--and some are pretty in depth comments. I know this is taking a big chunk out of her Sunday but, Donna, I really want you to know how much I appreciate you doing this.

I know a few of us here like AJ, Alfredo, Deb, Effie, Mary, myself and others take the time to read all the blogs we are subscribed to and, in most cases, leave a comment.

There is no doubt in my mind that we all enjoy doing this or we wouldn't but I, also, am aware of the effort it takes--especially when people like me are sort of verbose in quite a few of the blogs--so I just want to tip my hat to Donnamarie taking so much of her time to acknowledge my posts.

I am glad she is coming here more as I do read her posts at other blog sites but very seldom comment on them there.

By the way I didn't realize I blog about so many different subjects! LOL

For you people in the NorthEast she did come up with a good idea--in fact maybe we cn do it in all regions of the US--she suggested that AJ, Alfredo and her set up a theatre night when "A Chorus Line" plays in Providence to get together and meet, maybe have dinner and go to a performance--what fun it would be to meet other bloggers!!
Ummmm--10 months until it comes here--plenty of time for the Florida contingent to set up a "A Chorus Line" play date!! And February is certainly a good time to come to South Florida.

Donna, thanks again for taking the time to read and comment on my blogs--just want you to know that I really appreciate it and that though I may not comment on your blogs on other sites I do read them!

wow...it takes a lot to read all blogs subscribed to. I try to do it everyday but most days I read the first half of the blogs and then the next day I read the second half of the blogs. I enjoy reading a variety of blogs and just can't seem to check all of them in one day. That's pretty amazing that she is able to do that and leave heartfelt comments on them as well. Kudos to donnamarie!

I'm blushing! Thanks, Martin, but you are really making me blush.

You know I'm game to see it again. Martin, check out my blog. I traded in some scratch offs this a.m. and got a Super 7's -- you know the $1 one? I won $50! Alright things are looking up

I am right there with you on being honored that Donna is taking the time to check through the backlog of blogs.
