Sunday’s on Be Free 2 Love, will now be dedicated to meeting new people!
You never know who will cross your path, and what purpose they will serve in your live. In my experience so far with life in general, so many others continue to encourage and inspire me, and many have no idea how much they are appreciated. Let’s take a moment to say hi to someone new, and possibly gain a long-term friend.
In recognition of today, I ask that you do the following:
- Please share one fun fact about yourself.
- Please share at least one goal you plan to reach for the week. The more you say it, the more you’ll make it happen!
- Leave a link to your page, so others can get to check out your space.
- Want to share this post with others? Be sure to pingback and reblog this post, and tag #Friendships.
If you need help with figuring out how to add a link in your posts on wordpress, check out the link here, and the image below:
Hopefully this image will help explain how to do this better. Or you can simply copy and paste the link from another blog site, and paste the link on yours.
I’ll be a team player, and start the process!
- Fun fact about me: I’ll be traveling to Mexico in just a few weeks for vacation!!
- My goal for the week: Work out at least 2x. I fell off again, and need to get it together! So, I’ll work my way back up to more days.
*I give credit to the meet and greet to Dream Big, Dream Often, for inspiring me to reach out to new people each day. Check out his blog for some cool tips on how to reach your goals!
Happy Friending!

Fun fact about me – Despite having had a lot of nights out, a lot of alcohol and the odd black-spot in memory – at the grand old age of 27 I have never had a hangover!
My goal for the week – I want to catch up on my book reviews. I have been lucky enough to have managed to read a lot of awesome books this year and want to spread the word about them!

Hello Freebryd
Saw your post on Danny’s blog at Dream big.
Love the idea of meet and greet and the people I’m seeing here so far look really interesting. I’m quite excited about checking out their blog
Fun fact about me ? I love stationary… I can’t be left alone in a stationary store, I could spend a fortune in pens, post-it’s, journals and more….
My goal for the week is to survive back to school and figuring out our new routine without missing anything…. (Maybe they sell something at Staples to help me with that?!?!)

Howdy! Fun fact about me is that I’m 37 weeks pregnant and due at the end of this month.
My one goal for this week is to put my living space to order.
My blog can be found here: http://www.enviedangel.wordpress.com
When I started my blog I had no clear idea of what purpose I wanted it to serve. Now that I’ve found my true calling to be a fitness oriented life coach (that’s too simple a discription but it’s close enough), I basically write with the purpose of being kind of like Oprah or something. Lol.

Oprah is an awesome business woman. I just want to help people. I want to open discussions about topics that impact everyone and yet no one talks about. Everything from big things to little things. I just want to change the world for the better. And I will.
The preparing our living space for the new baby is the easy part. The hard part is preparing our 20 month old that is regressing into infant hood because he’s NOT happy about this new baby. That and the bigger I got during this pregnancy, the less I could play with him the way we usually do. So, he thinks I’m forgetting about him or replacing him or something. I don’t know exactly but it’s been a struggle doing everything we can to reassure him that we have just a much love and time for him as we always have. Which we do. I dunno. My poor baby Bear.
Sorry for rambling. Lol

Don’t apologize! I love your dreams! They most definitely sound attainable. Thanks so much for sharing. I know that things will get better with your 20 month old. He is going though the motions as he prepares for the new arrival. I can tell that you’re a good person, and a good parent. This time will pass, and he’ll come around. He’ll be happy to be a big brother. I’m rooting for you! When you get big, remember us lol. 🙂

Lol Thank you so much. I don’t always feel like a good parent. But I guess that’s the mark of a good parent. I know he’ll make an excellent big brother just judging by the way he rushes to my rescue everytime he hears me struggling with something.

Hi FreeBryd! What an awesome Idea! I have been laughing and nodding in recognition at some of the funfacts and goals here in the comments. Absolutely love meeting new people.
I guess I will add to this comment section with my funfact being that I am obsessed with my little bunny rabbit Ed who is the cheekiest little thing in the world (he attempted a great escape recently gnawing his way through his hutch oh, oh.. he never seems to stop amazing me)
One of my goals this week is to finally unpack and sort out the spare bedroom (have lived in this house for nearly a year now), but I am sure to find another excuse to put it off.
