Chasing Joy

Party Like a Blog Star

|

A few days ago I discovered there was a week long twitter party going down this week.   As a matter of fact this is not just any twitter party this is the Ultimate Blog Party 2012 (#UBP12) hosted by 5MinutesforMom.com with sponsor Kleenex Cottonelle.  This is the 6th annual Ultimate Blog Party and I’m so happy to find out about it so that I can participate.  The party includes loads of giveaways, live online events, and most importantly the chance to find new blogs, readers, and online friends.  Check it out here: http://www.5minutesformom.com/51797/ultimate-blog-party-2012/ .

Now for any of you visiting me from the party here is a little about me and about Chasing Joy.  Chasing Joy is a blog about me.  I am a 32 year old woman working to overcome the most difficult time in my life by focusing on and going after Joy. I started writing the blog after a rough 2 years that included a horrible job, a bad breakup and most devastating of all losing my dad to cancer two months after diagnosis. This blog Chasing Joy is my way back to being happy and staying happy again after so much heartache; to not only finds my old self but to improve upon it.

I am very active on Facebook and Twitter connecting with others who have made Joy a priority.  We do Make it Happen Mondays (#MakeitHappenMonday) where we set positive goals for the week; Way to go Wednesdays (#WaytogoWednesday) where we encourage ourselves and others by saying way to go for our accomplishments; Thankful Thursday (#ThankfulThursday)  where we focus on gratitude and what we are thankful for; and Flashback Friday (#FlashbackFriday) where we revisit our oldie but goodie posts and share them via the linky.  I am also a monthly contributor as a Girlfriend Guru on Girlfriendology.com.

Feel free to check out my About Me page, explore other posts, keep up with me on Facebook and Twitter, and visit often to Chase Joy with me.
