You’re welcome, Staci. I’m slowly catching up with my favorite blogs and doing a bit more blogging, myself, but I’ll be taking a break in a few days until after Jan 1. Until then, I’m happy I got to your post today! I normally make it a rule to save your weekly post with all the great links, but sadly, I missed a couple over the past few weeks.
