Have I mentioned lately that YOU GUYS ROCK!!!  Thanks to you all, this first carnival is going to be awesome!  I am thinking of a funny theme to make it even better, but you all are fantabulous!!!

For my regular readers, I will be hosting this carnival on Mondays a lot, but usually I will have two posts.  For this first one ever, it gets front and center.  But after that, I will be posting the carnival bright and early and usually will have another post up a couple of hours later for general consumption, so please do not give up on me if blog carnivals aren't your thing.  :-)

For anybody still interested, the carnival submission deadline is every Sunday by 6pm CST, so it's still open for submissions!  Even if you miss it, this is a weekly carnival so it'll make it up the next week.  :-) 

Please feel free to put this in your favorites as I am not going anywhere and this carnival will be around for keeps!  In case bribery helps, when I host, you'll be getting a link on a site with a current Alexa around 43,000, a Moz 5, and a PR 2 (because Google is holding out on me, lol).  Yes, I am pimping out my blog for at least the next 4 weeks, so take advantage of it while it lasts, lol.  :-)

Thank you all again for making this so much darn fun!!!

Hey Crystal, I added a link in my blogroll under Useful Sites.  Good luck!

Submitting a post now.

I had to submit an entry into the inaugural edition of this carnival.  Great idea, Crystal!

I cannot say thank you enough to everybody!!!  This will be great!  I hope you all enjoy it so much that you come back.  :-)

Quick update – this is going to be ONE HECK OF a carnival!  So far we've rounded up more than 50 submissions!!!  If we keep this up every week, this will be a majorly powerful link love group!!!

Hey, the cutoff is tomorrow at 6pm…you're like a whole day early!  :-)  I spent a little of today weeding out spam, but it still looks like we have more than 40 participants!!!

Very nicely done Crystal!  I tweeted, stumbled, and tip'd it as well.

Totally Money is now opened up to outside hosts, so feel free to throw your name in the ring!  You can see the qualifications (all Yakezie members and challengers are qualified regardless) on the site and the Hosting Schedule here (only January and April 4 are filled so far – thanks Penny at The Saved Quarter).  Please contact me here or via budgetingfunstuff *at* gmail *dot* com with your top date preference (or two in case the first one is snatched up) if you are interested!  It’s first come, first serve, so hurry up!   ;-)

BTW, I already have 16 submissions for next week's carnival and I post those by category and then by first come, first serve too usually – hint, hint.  LOL.  Please submit here.  Also please remember to include a quick description – it's a quick weed out requirement for spammers and I don't want to accidentally delete a true submission from a fellow blogger.  :-)
