Linky Poos & Free Christmas Blog Button

as seen at Gardenland Express Holiday Flower & Train Show, missouribotanicalgarden.org

Been tidying up a bit in anticipation of the December rush. A quick post to keep you apprised of where to find things around here.

The Social Network has moved from the sidebar to the top menu. Check out these links to blogs I know and love because of their authors, their content, or both. Watch for more jewels to be added to this crown.

Also new to the top menu is the Buttons page. Grab and use any of these buttons on your social media, including the newest button featuring silver Christ-mas ornaments. Helps to remember the reason for the season.

Finally, a couple months ago in a post called Linky Dos, I boldly declared I would throw a Linky Party. That’s what happens when one is in love, as I am with this blog and with you readers. One makes promises.

Well, darlings, I found out my free WordPress platform doesn’t allow for the Linky Party plug-in. Nor does it allow for Google Analytics.

I’d still like to throw a Linky Party for you and use Google Analytics for stats. But I’m not moving back to Blogger. And I’m not ready to self-host on WordPress.

Or am I?

Maybe WordPress will come around. Maybe I’ll catch up with the technology. Guaranteed we’ll all learn together. Stay tuned to see how this drama plays out in the weeks ahead.

Back in a jiffy with another hair-raising post. You can count on it.

For Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom.
You rule throughout all generations.

The Lord always keeps His promises;
He is gracious in all He does. Psalm 145:13 NLT

I couldn’t keep myself from making promises. Indigo Girls. Brilliant.

Linky Dos

evening on the farm, September 4, 2011

Good evening, night owls.

It’s late and tomorrow’s post is all queued up for the morning. Simply had to take a moment to share how much I’m enjoying these Linky Party things on blogs.

Linked up for the first time a couple weeks ago with Somewhere in Pennsylvania for Wordless Wednesday on friend Katie Pinke’s Pinke Post.

Then tonight I linked up with Sweet Slice to Family Friday on Zweber Family Farm News, a blog run by a super cool organic dairywoman, and I linked up with The Tale of Two Heifers to Farm Friend Friday on Verde Farm, one of the absolute sweetest farm blogs I’ve seen.

Two requests:

  1. If you are having one of these parties on your blog and I know about it, I am so there. This is a terrific way to read material from far and wide and share your stuff too.
  2. Once I figure out how to do this on WordPress, I’m throwing a party and you’re invited. So get your blog on and get ready to get down. (If you already happen to know how to do this on WordPress or if you have any Linky Party advice, the floor is yours in the comments.)

Tonight I also left a comment on an editorial post I liked on World Magazine. How cool is that? And to think, you can do it too. Anyone can. It’s like free-range media—a dream come true—and I’m lovin’ it!

Wise men and women are always learning,
always listening for fresh insights. Proverbs 18:15 The Message

Get Down with Audio Adrenaline because my Linky Party’s on the way and because I like this song. Buona notte!
