Since the launch of TMC, I am so proud to say that we are currently almost 500 members strong and continue to grow daily. I still receive feedback from bloggers sharing that they have found some really great readers from this site and others have shared that they found some real bloggy friends here. Bloggers are beginning to find their own “tribe” with fellow TMC members. Those connections are amazing and THAT is what this whole thing is about.
So I thought I would have a button made that represented TMC even better than before…and so here it is:
How adorable is this new button? So please grab it from the right sidebar and replace it with the old one as this is again linked directly to the TMC page.
And thank you for continuing to support this mission. I also must add that my reply to comments plug-in was previously not emailing my replies in the last couple of weeks but that is now fixed! I can reply through email again! YAY!
So yes, I will admit it’s a Saturday night and my kids (even my husband) are in bed. And what am I doing? Posting about my new bling and sharing my excitement over an awesome working comment plug-in. If you are a blogger, you TOTALLY understand my happiness in that last sentence.
So come talk to me – because now when I reply, I won’t be hearing crickets anymore.
LCW says
I know the excitement, because I too have a working comment reply notification plugin. It’s the small things…really.
Theta Mom says
And you KNOW I am excited that you will actually be reading this through your email!

C.mom says
Love it! And yes, I get it! It is funny how much satisfaction plugins or all things blog fun bring!
Theta Mom says
Yes, the small joys of blogging – on a Saturday night. 😉
Missy @ Wonder, Friend says
Okay, so HOW to you get your comment platform to send replies via email? I want to do that, too! My communication with readers is a mess – sometimes email, sometimes replies on the site… all over the place.
Love the new button. Will grab it this weekend (doing some housekeeping as it is, so perfect timing for a new button). =)
Theta Mom says
Missy,
You are on WP right? I had another plug-in that works for other WP users but it didn’t work with my theme – I would google it or read through the WP forums to find a reply to comments via email plug-in that works with your theme…
Missy @ Wonder, Friend says
Yes – WP. Thanks for the tips. I am going to see what I can find tomorrow! Thank you!
julia says
cool new bling!! will have to switch that out!!
how was blogher? oh, i wish i could’ve gone. but lowly bloggers like me don’t make enough blog money to justify going….
😉 JK!!
Theta Mom says
Julia,
BlogHer was great and I am glad I had the opportunity to go but it was big and had some disadvantages…I am attending the SITS Bootcamp in Philly next month, so I plan to do a “comparion” post about the 2 venues since they are so different in scope and size.
Maybe you could try to attend a smaller conference that is close to your home – I lucked out since BlogHer10 was in NYC, my backyard…
Jill @ Mormon Surrogate says
Awesome! Congrats!
Theta Mom says
Thanks girl!
Chrystal @ Happy Mothering says
The intricacies of WP. I’m still in the process of getting my blog transferred over–I just need to get on my husband to get it done already!
Theta Mom says
I know, it’s the little things that get us bloggers excited.

Theta Mom says
Sometimes, it’s my favorite time to write and blog – when the whole house is quiet. 😉
Melissa (Confessions of a Dr.Mom) says
Oh my, why didn’t I double check my spelling…I meant “peace and quiet”. Must have been my bedtime;) Glad you enjoyed your quiet time. BTW, you are one of my Monday Morning Mamas today, have wonderful day!
