Daily Life: Keeping up with it all – Professional Organizers Blog Carnival

Hey, it’s everybody’s favorite time of the month – time for the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival! This month’s edition is extra special, because our sponsor, EasilyDo, is giving a brand new iPod to the blogger with the best post on the topic of Daily Life – Keeping up with it all! And the winner is…

Margarita Ibbott! She wrote a review of the EasilyDo app specifically for the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival, and her efforts paid off. Hats off to Margarita!

Congratulations to Lisa Montanaro as well, for becoming a Professional Organizers Blog Carnival Superstar Blogger with her post, Stay Connected, Not Addicted, by Using Technology Wisely. Sorry, Lisa, you don’t get a prize, but I’ll be sending you a nifty badge you can add to your blog!

I also have to give a shout-out to Ellen Delap, the first person to have participated in 50 Professional Organizers Blog Carnivals – that’s what I call dedication! Be sure to read Ellen’s post, Work at home: Apps and More. Ellen, you’ll have to be in 50 more Blog Carnivals to earn your next badge. 🙂

Don’t go away yet, because we’ve got 20 more great posts for you to read! As you do, I hope you’ll take a bit of time to leave some comments and connect with the bloggers on social media. It’s all about growing your network while you learn!
