This will be a quick one.
If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that I host a Block Blog party every year around Labor Day (September 2-4).
Each year there was a different twist on it. Check out the links below if you’ve missed them.
- Blog “Block Party” – 5th edition.
- Block Party – 4th edition; Pre – Block Party – Party!
- Blog “Block” Party – 3rd edition
- Block party – 2nd edition
- Block Party – Conclusion; A block party.
Ever since last year, I’ve been musing about this year’s party, and I came up with a virtual meeting. I think it would be a fun idea for us to gather with a beverage and/ or a meal and just chit-chat and get to know one another better.
Disclaimer: It’s OK to keep your camera off (I know I will).
Is this something you would be interested in?
If you are, please leave a comment below. I would then create a Zoom meeting (since that is probably the most popular platform) and send you the link directly (to avoid meeting hijackers).
Let me know:
- if you want to participate
- your general availability (ex.: any time, weekday evenings, weekends, etc.)
- your time zone
RSVP to the most golden party of the year!
In a couple of weeks, I will pick a date + time that works best for most (or all), and we will go from there.
I’m excited! Are you?
Stay golden,

Sounds like a lot of fun. Raise a glass in my honor. I will be underwater, scuba diving in Bonaire. 🙂

The waters you swim in don’t have wi-fi? You should write a negative review and complain!

Sounds like a good idea. This would be a way for me to get back into WP fun. I’m thinking on the weekend about 2pm EST. Not to early or late for other time zones.

I’m equal parts excited and worried. I’m also down. Tuesdays are a bad day for me, between 12 and 3 PST. Everything else is fine. 😊

I’m in but understand that it could complicate things. I’m in China Central Time so US East coast + 12 hours. If not feasible to schedule to accommodate I totally understand.

I will try my best to make it work for all, but we shall see how plausible it would be. Would love to have you! I have someone from PST, so that would make it 15h. It’s not impossible. Will keep you posted.

Not completely. But I’d say that my voice could provide some clues…

Ooh, sounds fun—I’m game, assuming I can make it work with my schedule. I’m on Pacific time (west coast USA) and evenings or weekends are the times that I’d be available. I tend to work M-F from ~9 AM until ~6 PM, though there are certainly exceptions. I don’t (currently) have any events booked during Labor Day weekend.

Reblogged this on One day at a time… and commented:
I just sent out an email with the preliminary time and date of the meeting to those that voiced their willingness to participate. Please let me know if you did not receive it or if you haven’t had the chance the ‘sign up,’ but would like to join the virtual gathering.
Stay golden!

What a wonderful idea, Sam, but I’m not going to be free at those times. On the 2nd, I’m seeing my family for an early birthday 🎉 celebration. It’s my birthday on the 3rd and I’m going out to lunch with my best friend, and on the 4th, I have a training session for most of the day. It’s such a shame as I would have definitely been interested in this otherwise. If it all works out for you, I wish you a fantastic time. Have fun … Ellie xx 🦢😘

Happy early Birthday!!! Have a blast!
If this one goes well, I’m sure there will be other opportunities to ‘meet’ and chat.
