Uninterrupted Sleep is a Marvelous Thing

I am so thankful for my faithful blog readers. 

I really appreciate your words of encouragement, your doses of wisdom and your practical solutions to my climate issues from yesterday's grumpy little post.

I had seven hours of uninterrupted sleep last night, and I feel much better this morning.  I still haven't solved all the "cold" issues (mine or Isaac's!); but I don't feel so…pathetic about them today.

I've been enjoying a few sites this week that I wanted to share with you: 

• LouAnne, over at Momidazed is only buying necessities this month.  You'll be surprised at the things she is learning to live without!  And you'll be intrigued, I think, at the substitutions she has discovered.  My personal favorite:  The Great Chicken Shampoo Barter.
• Heather, at Simple and Deliberate, has a great post on the Winter Blues, something I have experienced too, even here in Florida.  
• Sharon, from Sharon's Place of Blessing, has started a new blog, and is sharing her art with us.  It's My Art Journal.  I have really enjoyed looking at the beautiful things she has done through the years.  I love to go to sites that fill my "beauty" tank, and this site definitely does that!
• And just in case you STILL have a little Christmas money left to spend:  Christopher & Banks, and it's sister store for plus sizes CJ Banks both have a BOGO sale on sweaters today!

Well, that's it for me this morning, I think.

Rest assured that should any snow fall in my yard, there will be pictures!  They think we have a possibility of freezing rain, sleet and/or snow in the early hours in the morning (Saturday.)  We will see! 

It did snow here when I was around 10-11 years old.  One of the most exciting days of my childhood! :)  I would love to see it happen again; but I'm also aware that these temperatures are endangering much of Florida's citrus and fruit crops.  So, as the Lord wills it, is how I'm praying.

May God richly bless your weekend,

Alesha
