If you aren’t already inundated with weekly carnivals, I hope you will consider playing along THIS TUESDAY, January 27th, when I host my first ever What I Learned This Week carnival! Here’s the deal. My goal is for this to be fun and easy. Just write a post about what you’ve been learning over the past week or so. It can be one sentence. It can be several paragraphs. It can be serious. It can be silly. It can be thoughtful. It can be sweet and sentimental. It can be sarcastic. It can be profound. It can be ANYTHING that you learned that is of a family friendly nature, ahem.
Then here’s what you do:
1. Any time on Tuesday, put up your What I Learned This Week post.
2. In your post, please link back to me. (You can link to this post if my new carnival post isn’t up when you write your post.)
3. Come over here where we HOPE Mr. Linky will be cooperative (sometimes he can be rather temperamental) and link to your carnival post (not to your main page). I plan to have Mr. Linky up and running bright and early Tuesday morning. (Please do not host your own What I Learned This Week Mr. Linky at your place. I might get confused.)
4. Leave me a comment because I have no shame and have reduced myself to asking for comments. 🙂
5. Then visit the other participants and see what they learned this week! And comment, comment, comment! Because we ALL love comments.
And that’s it! Feel free to display my button if you desire. It is not a requirement. Here is the code that links to this post.

If you don’t mind, let me know if you plan to participate. I’d love to get a feel for the interest.
I’m going to play along — I think it’s a great idea! I just put a post up over at my blog to help spread the word. 🙂
This sounds like fun. I have a carnival that I do some Tuesdays.. but I will prob be joining in on this one at least some 🙂
Hi there! I’m actually launching a new weekly meme at my blog today! What a coinck! I will try to remember to come back here on Tuesday and participate. If you’d like…stop by my blog and maybe you can help me with my meme next Friday? Take care!
Can’t wait!
I’d like to try this. I’ll be back.
Can’t wait. Maybe this will help kick me into gear to get blogging again!
I’ll TRY to participate. I’m sure my toddler will teach me a thing or two over the course of a week!
I’m in…I need to get mine ready for Tuesday.
Oh, I’m so playing along!
I’ll play! IT sounds like fun!
I’ll play too! I have the perfect post to go along with it too!
I am in! How fun!
HERE! PRESENT!
And girlfriend, I LOVE THE BUTTON! YOU KNOW I’M GONNA USE IT! 🙂
I’m game! It is so funny that you created this carnival because I was thinking of switching my Sunday posts to “What I Learned Last Week” instead of the Sunday Linkages. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read about the carnival. Great minds…
I’m in. Never “linked” up before, but giving it a try! Can’t wait! Also, going to put the button on to advertise for ya a little:)
No WAY! That’s too funny. Well, here you go then! Just post on Sunday and link in on Tuesday. 🙂
I’m so excited about all the responses. YAY!
I love this idea. I’m totally in. I found you on purple diva’s blog. She had your button posted. Can’t wait till Tuesday!
Ok I’m so excited I had to comment twice… and I just realized I put the wrong website in the box.
NOELUVSPIKO.BLOGSPOT.COM is the correct one thanx!
I plan to!
My post is ready.
I plan on participating. Sounds like fun.
I’m going to try it ~ never “linked in” before so I’m going to learn as I go. 🙂
