Tuesday Turn About #88 Spring Begins

Spread the love

The party is going on! It’s Tuesday Turn About #88 Spring Begins!

TUESDAY TURN ABOUT #88 Spring Begins

If you missed last week’s party, it was all about February Fun!

This week past week has been a whirlwind… I may have taken on a wee bit more than I should have.

My mom is doing quite well, and she is back at her assisted living community. Upon settling her back in, we were happy to find out that minimal social activities had started again. This is a good thing!

The weekend was very busy with some family ‘happenings’, and I just discovered that I can’t find my external hard drive. This is not good, as I have all my photos on the drive. Seriously… 3 years for photos! I *do* have it backed up, but I’m going to need to see when the last back-up happened. Prayers would be so appreciated!

UPDATE: Hard drive has been found! Praise God! My IT son-in-law says it’s time for another option. I think it’s his nice way of saying I’m getting old! LOL! 😉

Spring Begins

With all the ‘weather happenings’ across the country and the world, it seems many of us are ready for spring. So this week, I’m sharing some spring fun, and maybe a tip or two!

And remember…

But first, some tips!

This post may contain affiliate links, at no additional cost to you. For more information, see my complete disclosure HERE.

Weekly Household Tip

When baking for gift-giving, I use disposable paper baking pans/trays. They are cute, easy to use, and make just the right size serving for a little gift! (Think hostess, teacher, or employee holiday gift.) You can pick them up at Target, too!

Weekly Blogging Tip

Have you thought about checking for broken links on your site?

My son (who is an SEO manager) suggests using Screaming Frog to check and fix broken links on your blog. Links that work make for happy readers and happy Google! Use it once a month or so to keep your site moving smoothly.

    1. Oh, how fun that you found out that info! I’m sure Amber from Follow the Yellow Brick Home will appreciate that, as they are her prints! 😉

  8. I’ve never heard of Screaming Frog and will definitely be checking it out. Glad to hear your Mom is doing well and settled back home again. Enjoy the rest of the week, especially now that you’ve found your external hard drive. I would be in panic mode too!

    1. Yes… slight heart attack was had here, for sure! I’m having a bit of a hard time getting my mo-jo back after the surgery. Hoping to be back in full swing by the weekend!

  9. Hi Julie! I’m so glad your mom is doing better. Thanks for the tip about Screaming Frog. I really need that. And, the hard drive thing, yes, I have one around here somewhere, and now you’ve motivated me to find it! Have a great rest of your week!

    1. Thanks, Janet! Glad the tip was a helpful reminder! Next week’s tip is SUPER helpful (at least it was for me today!)

    1. Thanks, Jenn! The Lord decided to give us another hard week! Learning to trust and rest… more!

  11. Hi Julie – thanks for hosting. Serena’s feature on 5 Reasons We Don’t Finished resonated with me! It matched up perfectly with a post I have about trying to tackle family-friendly house projects (such a challenge!), so it was a perfect link/compliment. Thank you! Jen (#35 and #36 this week)
