There are some great things happening behind the scenes here. Thanks to Blissdom, I’m refining my blogging time.
So, keep looking for some exciting announcements in the next few days….you won’t want to miss them!
Meanwhile…I’ve been doing lots of this:
And this:
Washing lots of these:
Getting rid of lots of these:
So my house won’t look like this:
No household items were harmed in the making of this post.
No photos of our real home have been shown to protect the not-so-innocent.
Thank you.
Real friendships can start online and get closer in person…
Real friends will let you crash in their room because you were driving back and forth from home…

I learned to ask hard questions:
Why am I blogging?
Who am I helping?
How do I balance my online life and my “real life”?
It was a great time of leaning but, I also had a blast with my sweet blogging friends!

I’m joining in with the pillow party going on at Rose Colored Glasses!
I’d like to introduce you to my new favorite pillow and her creator…
Rose Red the pillow and Hannah
Hannah and her friend Deb (Deb is the co-owner) make one-of-a-kind pillows and scarfs from reclaimed wool. Beautiful and eco-friendly, a win-win. (See her shop here.)
Take a look at one of her beautiful scarves…
Handmade and only $25!
I have been trying to compile a list of what foods are in season each month. Not only will the food taste better, but it will be a lot less expensive! I was giddy when this little gem showed up in my Google reader…
Chart by Leon
(The chart was made by the Leon restaurant chain in London, but since British weather is very similar to the climate of most of North America, it works well for most of us.)
Have you ever bought something and then seen the same thing a week later….on sale? I have and it’s really frustrating, especially for big ticket items!
I just ran across a great post that shows what months that certain groups of items are on sale. You can check it out here at Life Hacker. You can thank me later. {wink}
Now, dear reader, how do you find good sales? I can use all the help I can get!
For more Q & A head over to Works For Me Wednesday at We Are THAT Family.
Are you going? If so, I’d really like to meet you there!
I was looking back on my goals for 2009 and this scripture came to mind…
Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22-23
Looking forward to a fresh start and a new year shared with you all!
