This week I'm celebrating:
1) Happy Canada Day (belated) for all my Canadian friends, including my publisher and editor (Lea Schizas & Christine Speakman) at MuseItUp!
2) Happy Independence Day for all my American friends!
3) Happy Ramadan for my Muslim friends!
4) In case some of you don't fall into any of those categories -- I'm wishing you a Happy Weekend!

Thanks for sharing these free give-a-ways with us. Happy Fourth of July to you.
Wonderful post. I'm checking out some of the free links you suggested. Thanks.
Happy celebrations to everyone!
That's a neat site for the eBooks. A lot of time the copyright-free books are classics, so it's fun to see something different.
Hi Lexa,
I didn't realize you wrote for Muse. So do I.
Happy Holiday and weekend.
People all over the world have lots to celebrate! Have a great day, Lexa. ;)
Hey Lexa,
We're talking some major celebrations.A happy weekend to everybody and a big celebration on Saturday.
You mention a fox and a Frisbee? Oops, sorry, very nice about those freebies :)

Hope you have a great weekend too! Yesterday was the perfect day...about 75 degrees...sunny...slight breeze...and then a clear, cool night for fireworks. If only everyday was that nice!

Happy weekend to you too, Lexa.
Happy Weekend, Lexa!
My family and I had a pretty good Independence Day celebration. Tomorrow is also my husband's birthday, so we're having a pretty busy weekend.
I sure am enjoying the weekend... taking it easy...:) Yay. Loving the Foxy's Friday Freebies... will have to send you some items:) Can't wait to check it out every Friday.
Hope you're having a great weekend too Lexa! Thanks for sharing those foxy freebie links, really interesting stuff there!
Happy, happy, celebrations. :) Ramadan has taken over Dubai - I'm not a fan of the restrictions, I admit. But as a guest here, I get through the month indoors, respectfully :)
Great freebies too. X
Hey Lexa, Just wanted to let you know that I dedicated something to you on the HERE'S TO YOU post.
Hope you have a nice weekend as well! :)
I love that you covered everyone. A lot happened this weekend all over the world!
Wow, Lexa... lots of celebrations this weekend! We had a lovely time with our friends and family for the 4th of July. It was nice to take a break from everything, including the day job, to relax and celebrate the holiday. I had a stomach bug yesterday though but am feeling much better.
And I'm loving the freebies! Fantastic! Thanks for sharing.
Such an amazing week and weekend for so many people. :)
Hope you had a happy celebration week! Thanks for all of the free stuff links :)
Gotta love free stuff!
Freebies are always nice. Hope you had a great weekend, Lexa!
My weekend was great. Yours? Love free stuff, so must check this out.
So much going on this week. Great first Friday Freebies!
LOL! I read and tweeted your post two days ago, but forgot to comment! So here I am, two days late and a bunch of dollars short. ;D
Great celebrations and awesome freebies!
Wow! Lots to celebrate this week! Thanks!
Belated happy weekend to you, Lexa.
Thanks for offering all the freebies, and a lovely photo of fireworks.
Lots of great things to celebrate, and thanks for the links for the freebies! Have a terrific week. :)
I may have celebrated too much. Getting back in the groove this week hasn't been easy - plus we're having our house painted.
Happy Day to you! Hope whatever you might be celebrating is fun. :) Each day is a gift and we have so much to celebrate.
Thanks for the freebies!

Who can resist a freebie? Or fireworks? Lovely display!
And happy (X3) to everybody celebrating one of these...
I'm a little late getting here but I hope you had a happy Fourth.
Im pretty late as well... thanks for the freebies... I submitted a first page . We will see ! THanks again, Lexa. Be well!
Thank you-a week later, from this crazy Canuck! I went with my best friend to Indianna Penn to Jimmy Stewart's hometown and to see his museum and then we went to Jamestown NY to visit Lucille Ball's museum and home-it was a lot of fun
Foxy is doing an excellent job at ferreting out the freebies! :-)
