Just a reminder that I’m no longer hosting the Hooked on Fridays blog parties at the end of each week. I have some other fun link-ups planned, though, including:

Hooked on House Tours: Fall Edition
Friday, October 23 Show us how you decorate your house for fall! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~
Hooked on House Tours: Holiday Edition
Friday, December 11 Show us how you decorate your home for the holidays!
If you have a blog and want to participate, feel free to take one of these buttons to post on your blog! I’ll also be hosting impromptu link-ups from time to time as the mood strikes.
P.S. If you haven’t entered my iPod giveaway yet, what are you waiting for? It ends at midnight Friday night, and I’ll choose the winner on Saturday.

Hi Julia ~ Thanks for hosting the Hooked on Fridays! I’ll look forward to these. I won’t do the Fall decorating one because I really don’t do much for Fall worth showing off, but I will participate in the Holiday one. I love decorating the house {inside and out} for Christmas!
Oh, you can plan on me being here for both parties!!
I try to decorate for Christmas right after Thanksgiving. My oldest’s bday is the first week in Dec. I know I won’t get to decorating after her birthday, so I get it done earlier to minimize stress. Makes for interesting birthday parties.

I miss your Hooked on Fridays party, but you deserve getting your Thursdays back!!
I don’t really do any decorating for fall & Hallowe’en, but for sure I’ll participate in your Hooked on House Tours: Holiday Edition

Not typically a huge fan of holiday decorating, the dates of your linky parties have at least given me a deadline and modivation to get my act in gear!
Thanks…Janell

Hi Julia I can’t wait to see all the decorating ideas here in Sydney we do decorate for Christmas but I must say it does get sooooo…hot . So last year I got a stick tree with some christmas bling it looked great if I do say so myself. Julia what would we do without you? Thanks a million…..
* I actually MARKED DEC 11th on my calendar, Julia!!! …I can’t WAIT!!!!!!!!! (And if I “COULD” do a blog, I’d be joining in for sure!!! I WILL be here to view all, tho!!!)~~~

I’ve marked it on my calendar, too – although I predict I’ll be doing more than one post on the goings on here at Christmas.
Thank you, Julia, for giving me this to look forward to. There have been a lot of deaths and departures among our friends and family, and as the kids are older now and I’ve stopped hosting the kiddy Christmas parties for all their friends, I sometimes get sad at the thought of fewer folk visiting at Christmas. Blogging, and having friends like you, has made me appreciate belonging to a cyber community of folk who appreciate each other’s efforts.
