You can talk about whatever is on your mind – quality of life issues, a beautiful tree you spotted, scuttlebutt, or any random questions/thoughts you may have. I’ll open this thread every Monday and Friday. So anything good happen to you this weekend?

Rave: PoP turns 4 years old today. Thanks so much to everyone for your support. It’s been a crazy year but my first year of full time blogging has been 99.9% an amazing experience! Ok, 98.7% an amazing experience. And that is 99.9% because of you guys who make this site what it is. Your ability to answer all reader questions as well as my “what the helen of troy is this” questions never ceases to amaze me. Even though we can (and do) often disagree on advice (and real estate prices), the collective knowledge and advice from PoPville is awesome.

To be very trite – I wake up every morning looking forward to what the day will bring. So thank you.

And I promise there will be a huge 5 year party next year. In the meantime stay tuned for a casual PoP winter happy hour.

Rave: I’m going to Monday Night Football tonight!!!
