Disney Store Frozen Promo This Weekend

Hey guys.  Yes, I'm still alive. ;)  Just wanted to drop in and let you know that the Disney Store is offering free shipping this weekend with the purchase of any Frozen merchandise (just add promo code FROZEN).  The shipping can really add up on a Disney Store order, so if you were already planning on ordering some Frozen stuff, this is the time to do it. :)  You can see all of the items from Frozen HERE.

I'm not exactly sure that I'll be posting much until later this weekend, or maybe even next week.  My fever and chills have gone away, but I have this horrid cough that is lingering, and yesterday I pulled or strained something in my rib cage.  It hurts terribly when I have to cough.  Please pray that I can hang in there 'til this nasty thing is over.  And maybe pray that it won't last too much longer, since I still have to blog, send Christmas cards, finish my Christmas shopping, finish my Christmas decorating, clean the house...yeah, I'm feeling just a wee bit overwhelmed. :{

I also have an absolutely adorable little newborn niece who was born in November, and I haven't even had the chance to meet her yet! :(  I definitely don't want to pass this stuff on to her or Mommy, though, so I've been keeping my distance.

Yesterday was a pretty tough day.  I normally try not to be too down in the dumps, but between hormones, the seemingly unending bouts of sickness in our family, and some other things, I've just been really struggling.  I'm trying to keep my focus on the Lord right now and remember that He has everything under control, even seemingly insignificant things like colds and such.  It's hard to hold onto that when you're in the middle of everything, though.  (Yesterday was pretty much a, "Lord, help!" type of day...with lots of sobbing...which probably didn't help the whole coughing thing.) :}

I also need to remember that my "trials" are quite small compared to some of the things others are going through this Christmas season.  I have many things to be thankful for, and I need to remind myself of them daily.

I've been missing blogging.  I'm so eager to get Belle's Bulletins all wrapped up, get Tess and Maggie's blog going again, and get back to regular posting here.  For now, though, I just need to lay low so I can get better.  Thank you for understanding.  I'll be back as soon as I can manage it.

Until then, Merry Christmas (I can't believe it's so close!) and happy shopping at the Disney Store. :)
