20,000th Visitor

My 20,000th visitor arrived at 8:42p.m., (7:42 their time) from Fargo, North Dakota, using an IP address from cableone.net . The referring URL is on my blogroll - Sarah: Anna's Place. But, I don't have a clue as to who it could be?! So, perhaps this person will visit again and recognize themselves, and say "hi".

So, what a milestone for me - and I'm looking forward to the next 20,000 visitors. Perhaps it will only take me a year to get that many rather than 2 years this time around!

Jules wondered if I'd be giving out a prize.

*Silence*

*A very long pause*

I have nothing to give, Jules. . .

Don't believe it! You have so much to give and you give each and every time you pray for one of us (Your faithful readers) and each time you share more of yourself with us! Congratulations on getting your 20,000th visitor! What a prize you are and I"m thankful that you're willing to share!

It's no bad thing to keep an eye on the blog stats of our visitors ....since I switched blogs I no longer have access to who my visitors are, just the actual number of visits to my blog per day.

It's inmortant to remember that the friendships that can be born of our bloggin' is always more important than the number of visits.

I'd rather have 10 visits a day and firm and genuine friendships develop form over the months and years....than have lot's of people pass through and few friendships being established with them :-)

Having said that...here's to your next 20,000 visits!

Yeah, ummm, what they said.

You have nothing to give my big fat butt. Just because it doesn't involve the cruise and foo foo drinks I was dreaming about doesn't mean you don't give out plenty of gifts every day - and that would be why visitor # 20,000 stopped by.

Love ya, Val!

Oh Ann - thank you! I didn't mean for people to take my remark so seriously!!! But, I still love what you had to say - and I appreciate YOU!

Deb - I've NEVER been a "number-monger", either. It's just fun to look at, sometimes. What I've discovered is that I have made about 5 friends with whom I am certain I shall maintain long-time relationships with throughout the years, and you're one of them. I'm so glad we've *met* and are able to support each other, cry with each other, and pray for each other.

Wow, congratulations on your 20,000 visitor! You give your life to us in words on this blog, that's more than some people give in a lifetime.

Love you!

Hi Valarie! I don't know who refereed you. I didn't know I was really known to many people either. And to be anonymous? Anyway, maybe I should get a counter or something, then I can know if anyone actually visits me.
