Welcome to the Twenty Sixth Edition of the Carnival of Improving Life

Thank you for visiting the Carnival of Improving Life, I have regrettably come to the decision to stop running this carnival at this point in time. I may come back to it again in the future, but for now, I am putting it on hold. This was not an easy decision, but I feel that the carnival has brought me away from my original intentions for this site. This is a big carnival with lots of great articles to read, seeing as this is the last edition for now, I have decided not to chose a top post. So, please enjoy the last edition of the carnival.
