Anyways, if the title weren’t enough suggestion, this week’s carnival is all about thanksgiving – not necessarily Turkey Day, but thanksgiving in general. And boy, do we have some great posts! Here they are, in the order in which I received them:

Where was the first Thanksgiving celebration held in North America? CyberCelt shares a surprising story on Texas RV Travel blog.

Anna says, “They rejoiced and feasted in what we call the first Thanksgiving with the Native Americans who had aided them. I suspect that they may have possessed a better character than I.”

truevyne writes about “A fresh start contained in a fresh egg.”

Julie Carobini celebrates family, friends and her beloved California coast.

Some things Barbara is thankful for are her family, professionals, and BLOGGING!

Can’t forget my own post, LOL! I talk about how thankful I am for my AWESOME parents!

Caylynn discusses her first Thanksgiving in Germany and provides some background and history on the Canadian Thanksgiving celebrations.

I will be taking posts until this afternoon, so please send yours in if you haven’t already!

“Did you make a New Year’s resolution this past year? How’s that coming for you? Post what your resolution was and how you’re doing now that we’re 3/4 of the way through the year!”

Julie at Another Chance Ranch took the easy way out this year. Is it fair to make resolutions that you know you will stick to? Check out her “planned” resolutions.

CyberCelt discusses a problem with Compulsive Planning Disorder, and how it effects New Year’s Resolutions for next year!

Rachael looks at her new years’ ponderings and talks a lot about pain and fear, but in a good way.

I talk about my resolution, and for once looks like I’ll be able to achieve it!!!

Gattina writes about how her resolution changed her life!

Thanks for joining us this week!

• 8/1/2006 -- What I love about blogging!

I think my absolute favorite thing about blogging is learning about all the different technological things that people are interested in. I’m a subscriber to the RSS feeds of LOTS of technology blogs. I love the fact that I can hear all about the latest tricks with my computer, the newest Treo rumor, and all the shortcuts that can happen with adopting small technological advances.

However, my favorite thing about my personal blog and the blogging that I PERSONALLY do is the relationships that I have found. There are so many interesting people out there who are all blogging, and I have learned so much from them! Lots of these people can be found on my blogroll to the side, but don’t let that fool you – I have about 100 feeds that I receive in my feedreader, and I read them ALL. I know people often link to sites they don’t read, but I am not one of those people. I love keeping track of what people are doing. There are so many times when I’m down and someone will comment on my blog and it will completely change my mood 100%

Thank you so much to all those people out there who keep blogging, despite what is going on in their lives. There is so much that we can learn from each other, and blogging has changed my life. (Man, that sounded way cheesier than I had intended it . . . you get my drift).

So come on! What do you love about blogging?
