Home Matters Linky Party #458
Welcome to the weekly Home Matters Linky Party #458
A great place to come, share your blog posts and make new friends.
We are so glad you are here with us each week.
Last week I finished the last project for the year for my blog which I share below. It is hard to believe that we are entering the last month of 2023!
This year has been hard and unlike any other year I have ever experienced. It has been the type of year for our family that marks a distinct line in your life between before and after. I haven’t been able to share any of the details on the blog or with my email subscribers but just know that having my blog has been a mental anchor for me this year.
Getting to read through your posts each week has also been a pleasure and a joy.
However, I have decided to take the month of December off to relax and recharge. The party is usually shut down during the two weeks of Christmas and New Year’s anyway but I have decided to take some time to enjoy the entire month. I plan to work on a writing course I signed up for and watch lots of Hallmark movies while cross-stitching. My plan includes returning in the new year with a fresh perspective, new home projects, and some big changes to my blog.
Even though I won’t be hosting the weekly link party in December, the party will continue on the other host sites if you decide to link up.
Thank you for showing up each week and have a blessed Christmas and New Year. – Donna

Home Matters Linky Party Guidelines:
- Please take some time to poke around and visit some of the other links.
- Please take some time to check out your hosts and co-hosts on social media.
- We appreciate the variety of blogs on the www; however, the Home Matters Party is for links on matters of the HOME. Please link accordingly.
- We ask that you do not add other Linky Parties, Blog Hops, or Giveaways–unless you begin the party with a new project, recipe or post.
- On the same note, please do not add links of an extremist, political or strong controversial nature. (The hosts and co-hosts read each and every blog post linked and will contact you directly if you have linked something that does not fit into the realm of the party.)
With your help, we can continue to grow the Home Matters Party! Thank you!
We are looking for Co-Hosts. Help us Rock this party!
