Once I clued into the game, my blog really took off. But I always yearned for the days when I didn't have to drive the success, that it would drive it's self. I give up! I just want to blog organically for myself like I used to, it was much more fun then. <BR/><BR/>The stats and the comments became very addictive to me. Kissing the addiction goodbye has been a huge burden lifted, seriously! I know I'm not there yet, but I've had my Intervention and have gone to comment and stat rehab. I'll get there. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comments and support, I wish you all the best with your blog too!Natalie Quehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01453065317873829264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2542361835947520230.post-16993889892702750712008-11-12T10:08:00.000-05:002008-11-12T10:08:00.000-05:00I'm so sorry, Rachel.

One of the hardest things about getting older ourselves is losing the loved ones that have been such a big part of our lives.
