Thankful

Wow, half the year has gone by already. Time to pause and look back...

In January I started to do some smart things with this blog in deciding to become a minor player here. My carpel tunnel was not getting any easier to deal with, and, quite frankly, I could no longer rub two thoughts together to save my life. What to do. Well having friends who happen to be some of the best thinkers and writers in blogdom made things easy here, so inviting them on board to do the bulk of the writing struck me as the way to go. I have not regretted that move for one second. They have all done me proud.

The real life-blood of bluecollar is found in the writing of Gayla, Wayne, Cristina, Dave, Doug, Susan and John.

You guys have made blogging fun again. What's exciting is that every morning when I go to the blog I never know what I am going to find, ON MY OWN BLOG, no less. Ya gotta love it.

As I said, you guys are the real life-blood of this blog. Thank you so very much.

Mark
