Doing YOU WELL Wednesday #10

an encouragement link up promoting community
Hi everyone! Wishing you all a safe Spring Break holiday and a blessed Resurrection Sunday! For all of you who are new to the link up...all you do is share with us what you're DOING WELL this week! It can be ANYTHING(something you're doing personally, a project you're working on, etc.), no matter how big or small. Because we do so much for others, we sometimes find it hard to celebrate ourselves! That's where this link-up comes in. I wanted to create a space where you could
drop by each week and be celebrated and encouraged! Who knows, you may have something that will inspire one of the other readers…and besides, we can all use some encouragement, right?!!



Each week I'll feature one of our fabulous participants! This week my featured blogger is the lovely HOPE who blogs over at "Defining Hope" . Please stop by and show her some lovin'! 
 

I guess you've figured by now...this isn’t your normal linky-party. My goal is to create a community where we actually get to know one another and each other's blogs, by connecting here on this link-up...where you’re not just a linked up post(if you  get my drift). For all my sisters who don't have blogs, please leave your comment so we can get to know you too! If you have a fanpage or website, please leave the link for them in the comment section.  Here are the rules:
  • If you follow me or any of the participants via GFC(Google Friend Connect), Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, Instagram, Bloglovin' or RSS feed, please make sure to leave in your comment how you're following, so we can return the favor.
  • If you’re a blogger, link up your blog(s)*any post you'd like*, so others can visit and follow you. Leave your comment on what you're doing well this week. Go visit other blogs and comment/follow. Try to visit as many as you can each week. Remember, we're creating a community here.
  • Please play fair (as I’ve seen so many bloggers in link-ups NOT do). If someone comments on/follows your blog…PLEASE return the favor! Remember, we're creating a community. Don't forget to let them know you're dropping by from the "Doing YOU WELL" link-up.
  • As I’ve stated, my goal is to create a community (I'm not trying to be redundant) where we come together to make new friends, connect with one another AND support each other's blogs...that's one of the reasons we blog, right? If your goal is to get followers for the sake of just getting followers…then, you may want to keep it movin’...ahem…this may not be the linky party for you. :-)
  • What are you waiting for ladies…get to linking!
  • Most of all...have fun, meet new friends and gain new followers, and while you're at it invite others to come...the more, the merrier! Don't forget to come back(same time next week)!
  • You're welcomed to grab my "Doing YOU WELL"button if you'd like. It's right there on the side(keep scrolling down, you'll see it). Paste it either in your post, on your sidebar, or wherever you put your buttons for link-ups!
  • Now on to the partaaaay!

  1. Well, going to sleep by my bedtime is definitely not something I'm doing well ;) While it's been a crazy busy week with work and family life, I've been doing me well overall. I've been making sure to take time out for myself to just breathe. If it means the kiddos have to go to bed a little earlier so I can have a little peace and quiet, so be it. This week I've been waking up earlier than my family to have a few moments of meditation and solitude. It definitely helps to start my day off that way! Hope everyone has a wonderful week and Michell thank you for hosting this great link-up!!!

    1. Hey Michelle!! Sounds like you've been busy lady! ;-) I agree, you MUST do what you have to in order to keep your sanity, lol! When momma's refreshed, EVERYONE benefits from it!! Oh yes, when you have one of those days when you don't get your time in with the Lord, FIRST, it shows....hate when that happens. Thanks so much for dropping by and linking up Michelle...hope you have a wonderful week as well my friend! ;-)

  5. Hi Michelle, I appreciate that you are starting a community that requires support of each other. That is important. This week I plan to visit my 90 y/o Auntie whom I am named after that I have not seen in a few years.

    1. Hi Margaret! Thank you so much! You're right, it.is.so.important! You can get lost AND get lonely out here in the bloggersphere! :-D Encouragement and support are two things that make us flourish. How awesome is that...going to see your namesake AND the fact that she's 90 years old makes it even sweeter! Thanks for stopping by...have a blessed week!

  18. Hi Michell and I got it right today! This week, I'm still pushing forward with my blog, affiliate marketing, my work I do from home as well as my new Silpada business. I believe and know that one day it will pay off, until them I keep grinding and working at it. Also, I'm making small steps towards eating clean, incorporating more fruits and veggies.
