National #GorgeousGrandma Day!

Of all the offbeat holidays, celebrations, and recognitions out there, today's is THE perfect one for Grandma's Briefs readers: National #GorgeousGrandma Day, celebrated every July 23.

I'm unable to find details on its beginnings, but there seems to be plenty of information on suggestions for celebrating this special day, including some especially grand ones listed on the National Today website.

Considering National Today's graphic for the day...

...National Today gets grandmas! Kudos to them, especially in light of the article I published last week on folks who don't get grandmas.

Happy National #GorgeousGrandma Day, my friends. You all are fabulously gorgeous to me!

GRAND Social No. 312 link party for grandparents

Now to the socializing. Thank you for sharing your work and reading the work of others!

How it works:

All grandparent bloggers are invited to add a link. You don't have to blog about grandparenting, just be a grandparent who blogs.

Grandparents who do not blog (or want to share something other than their own post) are welcome to add links to other posts grandparent readers may be interested in.

To link up a post, copy the direct URL to the specific post — new or old — that you want to share, not the link to the blog or website home page. Then click the blue button below marked "Add your link" and follow the directions.

I reserve the right to remove posts I feel are inappropriate. (Which hasn't happened yet, but I feel obligated to note that, just in case.)

Those who add links to the GRAND Social link party will be sent a weekly reminder when the party goes live. If you prefer to be removed from that email list, feel free to do so (and you'll still be more than welcome to join the party any time).

If adding your own post, including a mention such as This post linked to the GRAND Social to your linked posts is appreciated.

The GRAND Social linky accepts posts through Wednesday evening, so please come back to see those added after your first visit.

If you're not a linker, you have the pleasure of being a reader. Those sharing a link would be honored to have you visit, read and, if so moved, leave a comment, even if just "Hey, stopping by from the GRAND Social." Bloggers who link are encouraged to visit and comment on the links of other bloggers, as well.
