So, it looks like many of my commenters have gone off and found their witty repartee, exercises in creativity, and daily whine from more consistent bloggers. The only readers left might be those who drop by in silence, just to check up on me. I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!
I don't know how good of a blogger I can be in the future, however, after more than 500 posts, (and I know their are bloggers who do that in three months,) I'm not ready to shut'er'down. For awhile I fantasized about putting Dapoppins on my own personal card, so that when I'm snapping phone photos of things at the local re-sale and vintage shops I could tell them to come visit me. I dreamed of making this a place where discussion can take place and people can be challenged. I envisioned the humorous telling of a temporary Nanny's secrets, because DaPoppins is a nanny name...But... I always worry, what if someone "not-nice" or "really-judgmental," found me, or if--- telling a secret could get me in trouble. I know, you gotta take the good with the bad, but it's still a shadow in the back of my mind.
I've always had ideas of not being to overtly JESUS, or in-your-face CHRISTIANITY ROCKS and here is today's scripture by the way. I wanted my religion and my relationship to take part in my blog, but not to take over my blog.
But now most of my visitors are off visiting more prolific waters, and I have this empty space here.
Hummm.

Don't go changin' to try and please me... I love you just the way you are... SMILE.
I actually think that blogging is sort of a dying art. POsts are few and far between, and comments are WAY down. Everywhere. Hell, I barely manage one post a month, anymore.
I think a lot of people, who used to blog and comment, stopped blogging and just use Facebook now. I know that's where a lot of my readers went.
Hope you have a good week! :-)
You're in my Google Reader so every time you post, I read it. I've just become a lazy commentor because rarely have time to read the blogs I follow, let alone comment.
I read your stuff :)
Count me in with lilacspecs... (And I hear ya on the whole blog thing - my posts have really slowed down in the last year, but I still feel like I have more I want to share. Sigh.)

It's okay. Go ahead. Kill me with your honesty.
