Lonely ole me

I wondered if anyone at all even looked at my blog, with its over-abundance of reading fodder, and found where you can load a counter and it tells how many people visit your blog. Since I know nothing about blogging, including whether or not this an option already, I loaded the counter. I was thrilled this morning when I looked at the counter and it said I had 1 visit! Woot!! Someone read me! Happy dance time! Until....I realized it counted me as a hit every time I looked back at my blog to check how it looks....sigh....I am my only visitor.
