A few days later I found the direction for my blog. Now I had a reason to learn more about it so I joined/signed up at Technorati. My opening rank was in the high 700,000 range. Eight weeks later I broke 160,000. Apparently someone was reading my blog. What&#8217;s more is my traffic graph indicates that 50-60% of my traffic is returning traffic. Hmmmmm. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] I&#8217;ve been finding a lot of my time in the mornings going to reading other blogs. Last night I was telling my husband how incredible the concept of the blog is. (He&#8217;s rolling his eyes because HE&#8217;s the one that had to beg, plead and never give up encouraging to get me to start blogging!) [...]</description>
