Day One Was Fun!

I had SO MUCH FUN yesterday, stopping over to visit some of the first challenge participants! One of the benefits of the month that I always seem to forget about is making new friends, but I was certainly reminded of that again yesterday! Gosh - you're all some of the sweetest people, ya know that? Really! And can I just say, too, that some of your blogs (and homes) are downright gorgeous? Wow! Yep - a little envy goin' on there. Ha!

Also, what an encouragement it was to see the amount of commenting going on. I thought I was making pretty good time in the morning, but a lot of you were already ahead of me. So thank you for being intentional about that - I hope you'll continue! OH - and thanks to those who said they'd help out with that if the list of participants got too long. At this point - OK, I realize it's only Day 2, but for now I think it's manageable. I will email you, though, if I begin to feel differently. Thank you!

I did a lot of tossing and turning in the night, not sleeping well, so I'm up early this morning - just after 4:00. Now that my post is written and my own list is up-to-date, I'm off to do some more visiting. Is the coffee on at your place?

G'morning, Leah!

Wow! You are on your game today! And I'm envious of your coffee ... I have a sick husband and must grind/brew my own! LOL! I too am thankful for new friends and I'm especially thankful that I emailed you for help ... I wish we were neighbors! :D

I pray you have a blessed day!

((hugs))

QMM -

Good question! You really only have to link up the first day. From there, I'll be able to find you. :)

Leah,

Glad you're enjoying this challenge again, and that it's getting you back into blogging!

Are you thankful for *old* blog friends, too?! =)

Oh yes, it certainly was fun! I'm hoping to get around a few times every week at least. That way I can catch up with everyone or nearly everyone.

You know, I'd almost forgotten about your new daughter-in-law. We don't even have any wedding pics! Not even a fuzzy one that doesn't show anything. See how "unquiet" I can be? ☺

Thank you for your visit and for your sweet comment.

I think I have finally figured this linky thing out.lol They say the third time is a charm. I did like Vee posted my main blog URL.

Congratulations on your new daughter-in-law, and i too am thankful for my new -friends.

I hope I haven't caused you to much inconvenience.

I am loving all the new blogger friends that I have. And when they visit they don't eat all the cookies. Can't beat that!

I too noticed a lot of commenting. That is great! I rejoin commenting and feel sad when other don't do the same. I had a lot of new visitors yesterday too! Very exciting meeting new friends!

Morning Leah- I am enjoying reading everyone's thankful fors. Have a great day!

I had a lot of fun also! I couldn't believe all the bloggers who stopped by to say 'hi'.

I can see, though, where this could get away from me. I'll have to learn to manage my time.
