Thanks for the visit and your kind feedback.

I had an email button until yesterday when I realized that emails were simply evaporating. I’m using the Point2 platform which I quite like, but it’s still in beta so I’m reluctant to squawk too loudly. However, you’re right that it’s something which needs to be addressed soon.

Thank you for the heads up on the “Carnival.” As a fairly new blogger I still have that crazy “fish out of water” feeling and I’m not sure that I’m ready to play at that level. I will certainly check your site out. At the very least, I know I’m interested in following the carnival. I’m sure it provides a great opportunity for learning.

Love your blog. Just one thing, I couldn’t find a way to contact you — so I’ll post this as a comment.

I’ve created a Carnival for those that feature consumer-oriented posts on their blogs. The goal is to focus on the best consumer-oriented blogs tha appear each week.

I once got attacked by a cat that I was trying to keep out. He was showing interest in getting inside while I was opening the door. As I had no idea if the cat actually lived there, I was using my leg to block his entry to the house. Suddenly, he got extremely upset with me and jumped on my leg. His claws dug right in and he bit me.
