Back to business

I hope your Fourth of July was fabulous. (That goes even for those who are not U.S. residents, as you still had a fourth of July albeit not an Independence Day Fourth of July.)

As you can see, my grandsons certainly enjoyed their holiday celebrations:

I, too, had a grand holiday weekend, thanks to fabulous fun with friends and family, celebrations that began early Friday and ended late Sunday. (Meaning I'm a wee bit pooped and feeling like Jak — the littlest fire cracker above — has the right idea!)

Today, though, it's back to business. So here we go...

GRAND Social No. 112

Business can still be fun, thankfully, and that's the case with the GRAND Social link party for grandparents. So please join me for some linky fun. Cheers to business and fun rolled up in one!

How it works:

• All grandparent bloggers are invited to add a link. You don't have to blog about grandparenting, just be a grandparent who blogs.

• To link up a post, copy the direct URL to the specific post — new or old — that you want to share, not the link to your blog's home page. Then click the blue button below marked "Add your link" and follow the directions.

• You can add up to three posts, but no duplicates, contests, giveaways, or Etsy sites, please.

• Adding a mention such as This post linked to the GRAND Social to your linked posts is appreciated. Or, you can post the GRAND Social button anywhere on your page using the following code:

• The GRAND Social linky accepts posts through Wednesday evening, so please come back to see those added after your first visit.


• If you're not a blogger, you have the pleasure of being a reader. Those sharing a link would be honored to have you visit, read and, if so moved, leave a comment even if just "Hey, stopping by from the GRAND Social." Bloggers who link are encouraged to visit and comment on the links of other bloggers, as well.
