I should have known better than to try to set up a cute little light-up village in a house with cats…

I may have Muzilla in my house, but at least there was no Snowzilla around my house to cancel “Jolly Old Saint Nick Or Treat, Give Me Something Good To Eat” yesterday.  Will write more about that soon when I have time for something other than “quick and easy” posts!

Since Mushu was so afraid of that cat Halloween decoration, maybe I need to pull that out as a “scare-crow”  or, in this case, a “scare-cat” or a “scare-d-cat?”

I attended my first twitter blog party last night.  It was quite fun and I enjoyed meeting some other bloggers.  I’m really trying to get with the times on this whole social media thing. What happened to the “good old days” where everyone was just on Facebook and you actually decided which posts you want to see instead of Facebook selecting for you???

The blog party was to celebrate the launch of the eBook “Bloggy Moms Guide To A Better Blog” by Tiffany Noth.  I don’t know what the rules are for posting excerpts (need to get with the times on that also) so to avoid any violations, I “x’d” out all but one part (yeah, I need to get with the times and get a good photo editor too).

Recognize any names??

I’m so happy my voice is authentic.  Wouldn’t want to sound like Alvin.  But I will do my best Chipmunk impersonation to say “time for joy and time for cheer!”

Honestly I am honored to be one of only12 blogs mentioned in the book as examples!  And I’m so happy that others view what I write as the real deal, and not fake.   That is a huge compliment in my book (no pun intended).

Thanks Bloggy Moms for the mention!  Can I say I’ve been published now??

I feel like I’ve been so fortunate lately (in the blogging world, at least), that I almost didn’t write about this.  I didn’t want to cross the brag line.  But I’m excited…and I write about things I’m excited about.  So if I didn’t write about it, that would be fake.  And they’d have to take me out of the book.  So there you have it.

If you would like to read what is crossed out, head over to bloggymoms.com to purchase and download the ebook.  No, I was not compensated for, nor asked to promote sales in exchange for being named in the book.  Just want to help Tiffany and…I want people to buy since I’m in it! 😉

Time for a daily click.  Thanks to everyone that clicked theses banners in my other posts.  I tried to be all computer savvy and put them at the end of each post (instead of the side bar, where WordPress does the coding for me) but I didn’t do the link properly so none of those clicks counted.  Story of my life…  So much for that college degree in computers (that I haven’t used for 10+ years).  I *think* I have the links correct now.  Time will tell…

(P.S. After I hit publish, I realized the link was still incorrect.  I think I need to give my diploma back.  So you should REALLY click on the buttons below.  You just don’t know WHAT surprise you may get since I obviously don’t have a clue what I’m doing.  Maybe a cute little animated snowman will pop up.)
