In case you missed the announcement last week, I am now sharing Friday Favorites with my bloggy friend, Hoosier Homemade. We’ll be taking turns hosting the linky on our sites. If you’re new to Friday Favorites, this is a great way to share links to your favorite posts, articles, products, crafts, recipes, etc. really whatever you want to share. Then hop around and visit the other blogs and you’ll be able to see so many great posts that you may have otherwise missed.
I am spending the weekend away on a personal retreat. I’ll be writing more about it later, but it is something that my husband encouraged me to do. He ROCKS that way! I was hesitant to take this time for myself, but I also realize that I need a renewal both physically, mentally, emotionally, and most importantly, spiritually.
This is my first night and I feel a little lost. It’s hard to even wrap my mind around not having a single thing to be responsible for at all tomorrow.
My plans are to not have any plans.
My internet connection here is s-l-o-w, so I’m copying the links straight from my reader today (it’s easier that way).
I’m excited to share with you the many neat posts I’ve read this week. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did…there are loads of ideas for Halloween.
