Hey Guys! Another Friday has rolled around and It’s Hopping time again =D
First of all I need to take a second and thank all my Tweeps for being SO freaking amazing and helping me reach over 1000 Blog Followers!
And I’d like to Thanks every single one of you for being my follower!
I honestly put my heart in managing this blog and knowing that you all enjoy is all the payment I need =D
Just to make something clear, Since the Hop has been having over 300 links up, OMG, I just can’t visit them all… So, I will only stop by the new blogs on the hop and on the blogs of those who stop by here =) I still believe that’s fair… no? I do feel guilty about that =/ but I need to focus and do some reading and writing this weekend.
My week was pretty busy, but for some reason I have become organized, which has shocked myself most of all. I started a Books Read in 2010 spreadsheet and I even have a Reviews Calendar now, it’s too much for my messy little head LOL
You can check out all 130+ Books I’ve read this year by Author or Title, including review links HERE!
I actually had a bit of a change in the template design courtesy of Parajunkee and did some more re-organizing of my sidebars. I have added a Blogroll, and if you don’t see you blog there (left sidebar at the bottom) there is a form there where you can let me know your blog and I’ll add it =)
I’ll host Flashback Friday every Friday and I will be adding Mr. Linky on the post so if you feel like joining, you’re more than welcome to do it. You can go back as soon and as far as you’d like on the Flashback Friday, 1 month / 1 year, it’s up to you.
Click on the feature’s image above for more info about it and to access my first and second post with the meme. Or you can just go to the main blog page to find it =)
This week’s post is HERE!
Ok, so let me share these week’s posts with you:
