Now I am excited to visit everyone and see how much they got done and
see if I should be adding more to the new list!!!
I feel like I worked a lot on stuff for Bloggiesta but didn't get nearly as much done as I wanted to. I'm spending the rest of the evening try to finish up a couple of things. You got a lot done! I'd like to see look into drop down boxes, too. Maybe next time we'll get to that.
Wow! You accomplished loads! Well done!
I loved the organisation mini challenge 🙂
I still need to write a wrap up post!
Very impressive list with so much done! I love the finish line graphic. I should have used that in my wrap-up post!
wow, I thought I had done a lot, but your are really the Bloggiesta queen. I'm especially impressed by the number of reviews you wrote, I'm so slow at those!
I love your About me page, and am happy for you you are married also to an avid reader. My husband and I also spend lots of time reading, and I can't imagine what it would be to have a non-reading spouse, though alas several book bloggers are in that case.
