Good heavens! Well, this post marks an end to the 1st year of my Busy Bees curation posts! This year has felt extremely long and yet extremely short at the same time. As I look through memories of starting my own cake business, the kids birthdays and life in general, it's tough to put into words how I feel. I can say, however, that for the first time in a very long time I am starting to feel safe in my own skin. Thank you to those of you who have been contributing to and supporting our community and my curation posts. I have so enjoyed having a window into your worlds and the change of perspective very often helped me see the world in colour again instead of greyscale.
With my heart filled wit gratitude, love and hope, I look forward to embarking on the journey of this post, which is going to be my last Busy Bees curation post for 2025, and I look forward to continuing this curation post into 2026 β€οΈ
Before we continue, I'd just like to remind you who we have to thank for all the behind the scenes work and what this curation post is all about!
As always and going forward, every week I will be picking 10 of my favourite Busy Bees posts, from actively buzzing bees and showcasing them here!
**Please post regular & quality content if you want to be showcased in this post. The newer the post, the more time you will have to earn rewards on it and interact with readers!

Much love and a huge shoutout to my husband person who produces the Busy Bees community stats and performance report every week,
@zakludick , we see how much work you put into it and highly appreciate this tool that we can use to track our progress! His work is truly the backbone of this curation trail π
Thank you once again to @zakludick
as well as to @alonicus for creating and moderating this community, as well as distributing rewards for your progress.
This blog is based on the data from each of @zakludick 's Progress Report which is released every week!
We have a lot of spreadsheets between the two of us π€£π€£π€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ
Check out this week's progress report post here: HIVE PROGRESS - The Busy Bees 2025πππ Progress Report Week 52
Here are this week top 10 (well, my personal favorites anyway!) Manually Curated Busy Bees Posts, as curated by me, myself and I, @clairemobey .
βππ
** I PLACE POST AS I GO AND THEY'RE IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER. Each post is very special and due to the very wide range of topics, media and individual flair, I have decided not to make this a post about rank or turn it into a competition.
I will now also be flagging "newbees" to our community so they can feel loved and supported! Look out for this tag: πππNEWBEE!πππ:** and give them a warm welcome to the Busy Bees community.
