The challenge with having a blog is like mowing a yard.  It is enjoyable and relaxing when you “get to” mow the yard.  It is not enjoyable or relaxing when you “have to” mow the yard and there are other things you would prefer to be doing.

 

Our family has a big event this week, so this entry is going to be brief.  More about the event later.

 

In the past few weeks, we have received some very positive feedback about our blog.  I will not waste time telling about the positive publicity, but I will say we are pleased that our blog is being well received.  However, I do want to mention the Atlanta newspaper.  The Atlanta Journal Constitution had an article about blogs in the Sunday business section.  It was interesting that the photograph accompanying the article was the home page of our blog, “The Dairy Blog.”  It was interesting because our blog was not even mentioned in the article.  I guess it was positive publicity.  We always get excited when we get publicity.  Many people think we are this great big company, but we certainly don’t feel like it.  When we make the front page of a business section, we get excited.

 

Since our home page was featured, we are obviously having more visitors to our blog.  This leads me to the reason for this posting.  The purpose of our blog is to become friends with more people.  Oh sure, we also hope that you will learn about our milk and/or ice cream and become a customer,  but we don’t see a blog as a hard selling tool.  If you have questions, we want to answer them.  If it is my turn to post a blog, I am going to post whatever comes to mind, whether it is something personal or something about Blueberry Cream Pie ice cream, NuTrish milk or any other product. 

 

I am supposed to post something the first week of every month.  So, why am I late?  Predisposed?  Yes!  Waiting on something? Yes!  So what is the deal?  Well, my daughter is getting married Saturday.  My plan was to post something after the wedding.  I was traveling Monday and Tuesday of this week and, as soon as I finish this blog, I am focusing on the wedding.  Since my wife and daughter are doing most of the decorations, I believe I had better get home so I can help. 

 

Thanks for visiting our blog.  Let us know if you have something specific you want to hear about.
