Well, it wasn’t spent blogging, let’s just get that right out in the open. No laundry was done or dusting, mopping or sweeping. The house was pretty much completely ignored as was fitness, Bible study and school organization.
The hours went by, though, I’m pretty sure of it as it’s now midnight. Let’s see, what did I do?
I think basically I read lots of email, blog postings and comments.
It sounds pathetic, I know, but we receive so many wonderful comments on the blog that it is a joy to dialogue with readers and fellow bloggers. I try to visit other blogs on a regular basis, comment when I can, and connect with as many internet friends as possible.
It can take a LONG time. I guess that’s where a good portion of the evening went, in making bloggy connections. I never regret the time reading, laughing and gleaning wisdom from other bloggers.
I even stumbled on some fun giveaways this evening:
Rocks in My Dryer Weekly Giveaways
5 Minutes for Moms Christmas Treats
I’m sure there are many more giveaways going on in the blogosphere, these are just a small sampling. If you are hosting something on your blog or know of another one going on, please leave a comment and share the link.
Over the past few months I have won several things online through the generous, um, generosity (hey, it’s late) of fellow bloggers. I received a fantastic birthday plate, a music cd and a Princess DVD. People are constantly running comment contests or blogging giveaways, it’s our duty to encourage them and support them in their philanthropy.
Enough rambling.
Coming soon, a discussion on Advent Calendars! Get your Christmas notebooks ready.

What?!! No picture to commemorate the day? How the mighty Project 365 bloggers are fallen …
Well, at least you did spend some time working on the newsletter for The Refuge. And, it seems, you made me a lunch (either that or you put a brick in my lunch bag and tossed it in the fridge). So the evening wasn’t a complete write-off.
Scrooge alert: Advent calendars are another way for me to feel guilty for not wanting to add one more thing to what I have to do each day, even one tiny little thing. The kids remind me and it is a big production, and I don’t want to do it. I don’t like crafts and I don’t like Advent calendars. I do like the Advent wreath, meaningful, once a week, on Sundays… perfect.
So I am looking forward to your Advent calendar blog inspiring me and getting me excited! Maybe this year will be different!

I think I won something on a blog, too. Hymmm.
Loving you Edgrens. AK
