Aloha Friday Blog Hop #41 & a bloggers nightmare!

It´s that time of the week again my loves, the Aloha Friday Blog Hop is live! Link up below.

What is my nightmare? My laptop broke yesterday!!!

I am still in shock !!! It will take a few weeks to get repaired and I hope the insurance is gonna work fast with this because I feel absolutely lost right now. This is very disturbing to me because I had some sponsored posts planned in the next days, so I will find a solution to at least post those. Some things I can do from my smartphone but too bad not all or I have to check what I can do and what not...cause I never used it for the blog.

So please if you follow me make sure that I can see your blogs link in your profile and if you are not sure then please leave a comment below to make sure I can follow you back next time I can get on a computer, which I honestly don´t know how often it will be until I get mine repaired or a new paid from the insurance. I promise to still follow everyone back as I get on a computer as I always do.

In the meanwhile I will shoot some photos for my outfit posts and be ready to see some new ones as soon as I get my laptop back ;-)

The Aloha Friday Blog Hop is more than a "Friday" hop, it's a way to share aloha and friendship to our fellow bloggers all weekend long!!  I consider this particular blog hop to be more of a weekend hop because Fridays are so hectic that a lot of people function on what we like to call "Hawaiian Time" here in Hawai'i which means they link up on Saturday or sometimes even Sunday which is just fine and dandy with me!  That's why I keep it open from Friday through Wednesday because I sincerely believe, the more the merrier!! 
Can you believe we've been doing this for 41 weeks?  Time flies when you're having fun! This is the last week with our lovely January team.
