Weekend wrap: Giving while you shop, social media, surviving abuse and Carlos!

Welcome to the weekend. I trust today finds you well and you’ve had a wonderful week. Go and grab yourself a lovely hot cup of tea and settle down to enjoy what you might have missed this week.

On Monday we had a post especially for our UK friends. The Giving Machine is a wonderful endeavour which we’re keen to tell everyone and anyone about. It really does allow you to give to your favourite charity at no extra cost to you. Can’t be bad ;)

Wednesday saw a light hearted community post from Jenn Jinright with the top six signs that you might be addicted to social media. Thanks for the warning Jen ;)

On Thursday, even I was surprised by my own blog, when sitting here in France Maria was able to finish something we had talked about before I went on holiday. Child abuse is still taboo and I am grateful to Maria for feeling able to open up with her thoughts on journey to justice – surviving abuse. As I said in my comments Maria, thank you for your bravery for sharing. I look forward to part two.

And of course, who could forget yesterday’s video interview with Carlos from Conscious Me? If you haven’t seen that yet, you really should check it out :)

What have been your highlights of this week? Feel free to tell us all about it in the comments below and have a great weekend :)

    Your supposed to be on holiday misses, that means, sun, sand, fun, shopping, and more shopping, not working! :) Hope your having a great time. Glad you like the post, part two should be Monday as I wanted to wait until after our demo today which went really well.

    Luv to you and the family.

      Hi Maria. El really is on holiday and not doing too much. I edited the wrap article as I wanted to ensure we included a bit about your piece, as it is very important. I look forward to reading part two, as I’m sure others do too. Mike

      Woops! Sorry about that Carlos. Should have used a comma before the ‘and’ I guess. Entirely my fault, El’s on holiday, as you know. You were good value, as always.

    :) no worries, Dr. Egg, I thought it was funny. You know, your name (Dr. Egg) reminds me of a song called Dr. Worm by the band They Might Be Giants…which makes me smile.
