GAGs - GeniAus' Gems - 19 May 2017

It's dilemma time. This week has delivered a rich collection of blog posts to my RSS Feed. My issue is - do I add them all to this post or will I be selective?



I have decided to go down Ruthless Road. When I started this series of posts I planned to share 10-12 posts each week so, although I have read much of value this week, I will stick to my guns.. It would be easy to share a long list but I will go through what I have saved and select those Gems that shone most brightly for me.  

1. I have to start with Alex's rallying post which resonated with a large number of commenters.

2. Grave advice from Amy.

3. I always took our wireless for granted.

I'm also excited to be presenting a blogging session at #congress_2018

  1. Dear Jill - thanks so much for sharing my post...sorry for the tardy acknowledgement. It's been a busy couple of weekends for me away from home and my keyboard - a 50th birthday do down in Sydney (not mine) the weekend before last and the Footsteps in Time conference on the Gold Coast last weekend. I look forward to participating in your latest meme = perhaps this weekend. And catching up on your other gems too.

I'd love to hear what you have to say so I encourage you to say G'day in comments on my posts.

Sorry I have turned word verification on but I am just getting too much spam to allow comments without this feature.
