Hey everyone I hope this finds you all doing well and keeping warm! I had to share this great contest that a friend sent to me! Check out Unusual Historicals Blog! They are on the final day of their big Anniversary Bash and there are a bunch of great books up for grabs that you won't want to miss! So hurry on over and be sure to get your name in the hat!!!

Hey everyone I hope everyone is having a great week and staying warm wherever you are. We are trying to here but it has been very unusally cold for TN so far this year. We have actually seen temps in the 20's several times already at night and early morning and they are calling for them to be that way pretty much for the next week if not longer.  BRRRRRR  I thought last year's winter was bad eeek looks like this one if it keeps this up (and I sincerely hope that it does not) will out do it by a long shot. We usually don't see these temps for just a few days maybe in Jan. and Feb. most of the time so to have had them in Nov. is wayyyyyy weird.

Now you maybe wondering about the title of this post and why I started off with the weather report well it is the reason that I am so so thankful to God and CSN Stores! Our main heating unit went out the week before last just when the really cold snap started and we were without heat in the whole front part of the house which is the main living areas for us when we are up - the living room, kitchen and bathroom. Well God seen that this was about to happen  and he took care of us big time because I got an email from Sean at CSN stores asking if I would like to review another product for them. And seeing as how I was looking for a heater and desperately needing one it was perfect timing! I found the Lifesmart 1000W Quartz Infrared Heater that we wanted and with the gift certificate from CSN it saved us almost half off this heater!

Now I know what you are thinking but you ordered it when you needed it then. But we would have had to order one no matter where we got it  because we had already looked at all the local places and they had little space heaters but we already had one of those but it wasn't enough to do the job and we needed something bigger than any of them carried without special order. So since we were going to have to order one regardless that would heat the area of space we needed this was a true God send to us. Because we didn't have very much money at all to play around with either. So GOD BLESS CSN stores they sure have come through for us yet again!  The heater got here in less than a week and we are toasty and warm here in the living room now! We LOVE this little heater so far it heats up super fast and does the job! Plus it doesn't get hot to the touch and that is important with my son and the cats running around all the time, I didn't want something that I had to worry about them getting hurt on or starting a fire because they knocked it over.  CSN stores made this necessary purchase super easy and they met and exceeded my expectations once again! I will never forget this and I will definitely be going back to them when shopping! I highly recommend their great service and they are fast and very nice to deal with as well. You just can't beat that! :)

So hopefully during some of this extremely cold snap I will finally get a little time to get some reading done! I am sooooooo behind on all my reading it's not even funny. Things despite being extremely cold have also been extremely busy. Hence my being MIA so much here lately. I hope things will even out again soon but we will see how RL goes. Big hugs and thanks to all of you for staying with me and not unfollowing me even though I haven't been updating nearly as often lately. Hope to have another post and review up very soon! Until then I wish you all the very best!
