ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to see you go! This was my favorite linkup. I know though life gets busy and hectic. I hope to see great posts from you! Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteDear Jes...I don't think I have ever posted, but I wanted to thank you for doing these link ups for so long. They've been such a blessing...I'm sure I'll continue to look back through them. I hope you had good family visiting this summer.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you have to end the hop, JES, but I certainly understand. May the Lord bless you as you follow His will.
ReplyDeleteI will be unable to link up this week - but, I will miss this! Thanks for hosting this as long as you did!
ReplyDeleteI completely sympathize with your need to move on from this commitment. Thanks for your faithfulness here.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

JES,
ReplyDeleteThank you for all of the time and effort you have given this linkup over the years! I do hope you will continue to blog, as I always enjoy your recipes and homemaking advice. : )
May the LORD bless and keep you!

Thank you for hosting Jes. Hope all is well~ thank you also, for letting us know rather than just stopping and leaving us wondering. We all must change with the seasons. Have a beautiful day.

ReplyDeleteHello Jes,
ReplyDeleteI hope all is well with you. I do understand needing to make changes in your blog. I've enjoyed linking up with you through the years. I cannot do as much as I once could, but I hope to recover and be a better manager of my home. I always find inspiration when I visit you. Be blessed, take care of yourself, your family, and your home. I'm glad you've had such an extended opportunity to visit family this year. Hugs from Missouri!

ReplyDeleteJES... I am so sorry to see the end of your link parties. You will be missed greatly, though I understand that life requires us to make changes.. even unpleasant ones, at times. Thank you for your faithfulness to offer this wonderful party each week for so long... and your sweet spirit in commenting when you used to do that. I hope all is well with you and I will be thinking of you and praying for you at times. If you ever decide to contact me, I would love to hear from you. May God bless you.

ReplyDeleteJES, I am sorry to see that you are going to end the link-up, but I'm sure it is some work to keep it up weekly. Thank you for doing this for so long. :-)
ReplyDeleteHello, JES! I hope you have enjoyed your summer with your distant family. I'm Brazilian and I do not speak English very well, I need to use Google's translator feature to translate English. Will you stop posting on your blog or just the Monday section? I'm newly married and find lots of inspiration for domestic service on yours blog and I'm very happy and encouraged. But I understand if it's time for you to get away from this network. I wish God to bless you more and more and thank you for all the postings of encouragement you made at that time. Hugs from Rio de Janeiro!
ReplyDeleteJES, I am sorry to hear you are ending the hops, but I am also grateful to you for allowing me to post my little blog's links. In fact, your link up was the very first one I ever tried, and because of it, I now have a lot more confidence in sharing my blog. Go do whatever you need to, I'll still be reading and learning from your wisdom. God bless you!
ReplyDeleteHello Jess, It has been a huge blessing in my life to have found your blog, not just for your link ups which are wonderful, but also all that you share personally. I'll miss the link up, but you need to look to the needs of your home. May the Lord bless you in your home!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jes! for all the wonderful years of inspiration. You've been such a blessing. Take care! With blessings, Khani
ReplyDeleteHi Jess. I am sorry to see your link-up parties end. I understand that life requires us to make changes. I like your blog for all the homemaking tips and learning many things about housekeeping. Take care and God Bless! Thelma xo

ReplyDeleteSo sorry! I have appreciated especially the art pieces of old-time homes and homemakers you display in your posts. It has been real pleasure to view them...
ReplyDeleteDear Jes, I do understand how time consuming it must be to run this beautiful place on the web, and you have contributed much to the world of ladies who blog about their home life. What an inspirational place this link has been. I too, have not been as active blogging lately either, life gets quite busy. I hope you will still post when you can! Appreciate your kind gentle spirit, and the wonderful people I have met through your linked up parties. Blessings to you dear friend!
ReplyDeleteWill miss you! Continued blessings!
ReplyDeleteJES, your home-making linkup has been the most enjoyable one I have ever subscribed to, and I want to thank you for all the time consuming hours you put into it and the many posts you've shared here, too. May the Lord bless your present and future endeavors.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
