Fortunately I was invited to have dinner at my sister's home last night.  I had a lovely dinner there last night.  We were celebrating the birthday of their eldest child.  After dinner their youngest asked me something funny.  My niece asked me if anyone has been reading what I have been writing.

I answered honestly.  I have no idea if anyone has really been reading what I am writing.  I know how many people are clicking here every day, but as to whether or not they are actually reading it, who knows. 

Then I told my niece that so many people are so busy these days, like her Mom and Dad.  My sister for instance has to find time just to use the bathroom every day.  My sister is very busy.  I had been convinced that my sister and brother-in-law had not read a single word I had written until my niece told me that they are reading, every day.  Apparently my writing has also been much discussed.

How flattering!  The only other daily that my sister and brother-in-law read every day, day in and day out, is The New York Times.  In fact, they both pour over it and examine it as if it were the Dead Sea Scrolls.  They often quote interesting things they have read from the newspaper.  It makes for very entertaining dinner conversation.

So I am still wondering.  Is anyone out there actually reading this?  If you are, then please post a comment below.  I look forward to getting to know you.
