Editor’s Note: WordPress quite adamantly insisted I share this with you, my reading public, and thus I must do as they command.
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 2,200 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 4 years to get that many views.

Isn’t it fun to review what we’ve done in the past year with our blogs? And I always find it interesting to see what my most popular posts have been about (pantyhose? seriously?)…keep writing…you always make me smile.
Thanks, Patti. Means a lot. Really does.
Uh oh…pantyhose? What did you write about?!
Well, you’re welcome….I’ve enjoyed kidding around with you…and yes, pantyhose…silly, really…I was just writing about how fashionistas (which I am most definitely not) were getting all over Kate Middleton (again, not a royal watcher) about wearing pantyhose…some of the responses were, well, a little mean spirited…one said something about me that included “your yoga pants wearing self”…kinda had to laugh about that one since I’ve never worn yoga pants! Ah well…we have to take the good with the not so good when we write for the public…and with that I will bid you adieu with the royal wave…till next year, young lad!
Wow, it’s been a while! I last spoke to you last year.
Ok, ok, lame joke I know!
Yes, our reading public is a fickle mistress isn’t it?
Um .. okay … I’m both #1 AND #2? Wow – that’s a level of schizophrenia even I didn’t think I was capable of! How truly awesome!

You did 45 posts too, huh? Interesting – I believe that’s what I did! Not sure if I should be scared about that or not. (YOU, on the other hand, should be stark-staring TERRIFIED!
I don’t know how that happened….magic?
Oh no, I’m not the one who should be petrified….that’s YOUR job I’m afraid.!
