Happy Reading and Writing, everyone!!!
Melinda
Thanks so much for including my blog in your list. Love reading what you post, and think it’s great when I’ve posted something you like too, Melinda!
You’re very welcome! I love finding and sharing informative posts. 🙂
I JUST got the pingbacks on these posts. Geesh, WordPress is making me look bad….
No worries, Jenny! I think when I switched from Blogger to WordPress last year, and moved all these posts with the site, it confused the heck outta WordPress. As long as I didn’t break it, we’re good, lol. 🙂
