It's your turn

I think it's time for a delurker post.

I love checking up on my blog stats. Not so much the numbers, encouraging as they are, but the locations! Fascinating.

I have plenty of Australian visitors, and a few from America, too. A couple from the UK (I think that's you, Gartcott!) and some from South Africa (Hi Stel!) But who else is here?

I'm turning this post over to you, my dear semi-regular reader, my adored occasional or never-before commenter. Come in! sit down! And write...

    Hi Mrs. A! I just joined your following recently. I was blog surfing and happened upon you and enjoyed your humor!
    I live in the US on the east coast, just fyi. I also enjoy seeing where my lurkers live! Tis really hard to get comments from anyone, but it does happen on occasion!
    Happy posting!

    I'm from the UK but have lived in France for the last 20 years. I don't remember how I came to your blog but I have read all the archives. I love how you write and have enjoyed following your journey.

    Hi
    I am a reader from the west coast of the USA. I found your blog via a Down to Earth blog link and have continued following your posts, since I really enjoy your writing, which is so full of humor.

    Yep, I'm definitely UK - southern central Scotland to be fairly precise - can one be 'fairly' precise? Love where I live but still call Australia home, even after 44 years; except when I come back to Australia on a visit, I then 'go home' to Scotland.

    Another lurker here from the UK. I have never commented before but strangely while driving into work this morning I promised myself that I would comment today when I got home and let you know how much I enjoy your posts - how's that for synchronicity!

    I live in the SW of England in a beautiful village called North Tawton where for the first time in what seems forever we have SUN!

    Hi, I'm a reader from the Netherlands (had to laugh about your comments on dutch food and you're right btw)
    I found your blog through Down to Earth and kept reading as I'm also a housewife with two (slightly) younger children and I enjoy your posts very much.

    Hello, I'm from the uk and have commented once before so not a total lurker! Your posts make me chuckle and/or make me think so I love dropping by. My children are slightly older (7 and 3.99999) and I wear an apron at home lots more since you described it as a uniform!

    I'm another from Adelaide (Hi to Enchanted Moments!! I also believe in fairies)who found your blog through Down to Earth. I am a full-time working mother with a stay-at-home-husband, but I love reading all your posts and trying to incorporate your ideas and values and humour into the precious time that I do have to spend with my 2 boys.

    I am from The Blue Mountains just west of Sydney. I'm not sure how I found your blog but its bookmarked now. I am an infants teacher but currently stay at home by choice to raise my family and lead a simpler, less hectic life. I check your blog once a day but don't always comment. But I will try to more often.

    I am from Kingscliff on the far north coast of NSW Australia. Not sure how I found your bog but I have been reading it for a few months now and have never commented. I find your posts very entertaining. I have been on maternity leave for 19 months and am returning to work part time next week. I have an almost 18 month old son so I really love reading your blogs about your life with your kids. Keep up the great writing!

    I think I stumbled on your site from the comments section of SimpleMom (can’t be sure of that). Your post was about falling down in the yard and getting pecked by chickens. I laughed out loud and have been popping in since.

    I just found you today by following a Nature Nurture post link, so you can count me in as your Germany stat, until we move elsewhere this year or next. And then I'll probably be your stat from somewhere else. :)
