Frugal Friday: I'm drawing a blank
Has anyone noticed I've been a little quiet here this week?Between the ebook sale that is going absolutely gangbusters, a minor car accident I was in (no one was hurt and it wasn't my fault, but the car was damaged and I've spent a lot of time on the phone with the insurance company, etc. as a result), coupled with some other possibilities looming on the horizon which could mean some big changes (and really good changes!) for our family in the next few weeks, I've not been in a state of mind to blog much this week.
Thank you for being patient with me as I take care of things here on the homefront and process all that's going on. I hope to be able to share more soon of how God is working in our lives and directing and providing for us--it's been an exciting week!
In the mean time, I'm afraid I have no frugal thoughts to share with you today. Well wait, I sort of have one: Have you gotten your ebook package yet?
So help me out here, make up for my lack of wise words with your frugal links below!

Thank you for your FABULOUS Ebook sale. Though your blog has been quiet - after downloading all the material I have quite enough to keep me occupied!
Glad to hear that no one was hurt in the accident and we will keep your family in our prayers!
I hope that the changes you mentioned are positive and not something to worry over. I'll pray for you, Jesse & the kids.
:)
Kara: I realized I should have clarified that the changes I referred to are *really good* changes. There have been a lot of answers to prayer and exciting things happening in our home this week; it's just been unexpected and a lot to process and wrap my head around at once! Hopefully I can share more soon... waiting for the "dust to settle"!
Thanks for hosting frugal Friday! I'm glad that no one was hurt in the accident. I hope things smooth out quickly! May God give you favor!

I'm glad that the accident wasn't anything major! And thank you so much for your encouraging words on my site, and your offers to help. I may take you up on that sometime! I've really been thinking about writing an ebook... maybe soon. I hope that these good things coming to your home bless you tremendously!! Thanks for all you do. You are such a blessing to me, and I've been truly enjoying your ebooks!
I'm glad no one was hurt in your accident. Car accidents are so scary!
One thing you may not know that I learned from a CPST tech is that after any car accident, if any children's carseats were in the car, they need to be replaced. Most often insurance will pay for them. The forces in an accident, even a minor one, can cause unseen damage which could possibly lead to carseat failure in a future accident. I just want your girls to be safe!
Good luck with all that excitement! Thanks for keeping Frugal Friday going...we're just growing our site, so it's wonderful to get so many lovely visitors from Biblical Womanhood!

Sorry to hear about your accident! Glad no one was hurt. Perhaps God is working out a way to get a new car for your family!
I've recieved so much encouragement from your blogs. Thanks so much!
I hope your family is ok. I mean from the accident, the stress from the accident, the ebook sale and your mysterious, exciting news!
This vacation sounds very necessary for your family at this point! Enjoy!!!
Thanks for all the work you do. I don't know how you get it all done!
I got the ebook package! I am having a great time downloading all the stuff. :) Thanks!
I know what you mean about life getting in the way of blogging! I hope things get ironed out for you soon. :) Can't wait to hear about the good changes!
Hi Crystal,
I just ordered the e-Book package and am so excited. After my husband gets home from work today, we're going to listen to the supermarket savings audio files (he's the grocery shopper because HE LOVES IT!). Thank you for this fabulous offer.
Thank you for hosting Frugal Friday. I'm glad the accident was minor, and hope you get everything worked out with the insurance companies.

GLad to hear you are ok. Accidents are no fun! :( I was in two rear endings within 3 weeks time last year. Ugh! I still have issues but God is good!
God bless you, Crystal, for being such an encouraging presence on the web and for inviting others to jion in!
I second the carseat issue - this is just nonnegotiable. Insist to the insurance company that they replace the seats with the same seat or similarly rated seats.
Also...Don't apologize for being absent, girl! People in the Blogworld seem to think it a RIGHT to read someone's blog, and that they have every right to be upset if the blog owner doesn't post for a while - they don't! You have a life outside of blogging, and you gotta take care of things, KWIM?
Good luck with the 'Good' developments - we put an offer on a condo on Thursday, and the owners countered, so say prayers for us that they just accept our counter to their counter (wrap your head around THAT! heheheh!:)
Praying God's richest blessings on you and yours as you enter this new adventure . . . whatever it may be.
Thanks for sharing your Frugal Fridays with us.
Crystal - I just wanted to thank you for the ebook sale... I have read almost through everything and have so appreciated the encouragement. Char
