Thank you, everyone!

I wanted to make a public thank you to all of my readers who have been so encouraging and challenging to me. And I am so grateful for all the comments. I recently found links to my blog on others' sites and was happily surprised that I had readers I didn't even know about. I would love it if you all commented, too...just to say hi. I know that my buffet-style posting includes lots of social commentary and whatnot, but don't feel like you need to jump into that fray or say something that involves a lot of time. Even just a, "hi, I read your blog," would totally thrill me, and then I could link to yours as well and get to know you a bit. All that to say, what a lovely, lovely group and I am so blessed to have you all in my life. More on the human rights issues to come....and...pictures of my new short haircut! And Feistygirl's haircut! May peace reign in your homes.
