The weekend is quickly coming to an end and you know what that means. That’s right, it’s time for my weekly series, SuperPost Sunday!
If you read last week’s roundup, then you saw the little “Note to self” I had left.
Here’s the thing folks. I did speak to the man in charge (up there) about prolonging the weekends and it seems it’s a no go. The weekend vs. weekday ratio will in fact remain the same and Monday will continue to get here faster and faster. Sorry kids, I tried :(. My powers of persuasion are usually more effective, but you can’t imagine all the gate keepers I had to go through to have a word.
But on a brighter note, it means the Holiday’s will be here very soon and it’ll be summer again (for those of us not living in Australia) before we know it :). And speaking of the holiday season, if you’re still looking for tree decoration ideas, you may want to check out a post I wrote last December. Some pretty kick-ass looking Christmas trees – a bit far fetched but definitely worth the peek!
Alright, enough about the holiday’s, we’ll get to them eventually. Plus, Thanksgiving is right around the corner, so maybe I should be directing you to some kick-ass and yummy looking turkeys before trees! So, here’s one and two links to where you can find some turkeylicious recipes.
Without further ado and blah blah,” here are this week’s SuperPost’s on Social Media, Blogging Tips, SEO, Internet Marketing, Traffic Building, Online Money Making Tools and more.
I’m sure I don’t need to tell you again that this is a kick-ass roundup of articles. I think you know that by now. So put your reading caps on and get ready to devour some amazingly written and very insightful words from fantastic bloggers.
HAPPY READING my lovely nittyGriddy’ers :).
Make sure to leave your thoughts in the comments. I always looks forward to reading and replying to them.
