One week from right now we’ll be basking in the afterglow of torn bits of festive paper and ribbons, most likely in a food coma from a big holiday dinner, and enjoying family to the fullest.  So why not take a break, hop around and meet like-minded bloggers before starting that last mad dash to the finish line?

Meet Me Monday Blog Hop

With:

and

The awesome Jessica over at Inspiring You 2 $ave has asked me to co-host her fun Meet Me Monday! Want to meet more fun bloggers? Then join us, won’t you? Welcome to Meet Me Monday! Meet Me Monday is a weekly link-up hosted by Inspiring You 2 $ave created for socializing and to help bloggers get new followers, subscribers, and readers. Every Monday a new linky will be posted. Here’s how it works:

• Follow this blog, and don’t forget to follow my awesome co-host, Inspiring You 2 $ave.
• Leave a comment if you’re a new follower with your web address and we will follow back.
• Grab the “Meet Me Monday” button from here and place it on your site to help spread the word.
• Link up, visit other blogs, and make new friends!

Also, as of March Google is being stingy and taking away Google Friend Connect from those of us who are not on Blogger. So they’re telling us to utilize Google+ for followers instead. It’s a pain in the you-know-what, but if you’re already following me (and if you’re not yet) do me a favor, and add me to your circles here:

That way when GFC mysteriously goes away in March, you’ll be all set – and so will I.

I’m following Jessica’s lead and posting this at 8pm each Sunday evening to give everyone a better chance of linking up – my usual Monday post will go live at midnight, so stay tuned! Meanwhile, be sure to leave a comment when you link up, letting me know you’re following so I can return the favor. Thanks for playing along!
