Is it hot where you are? It’s been a scorcher around these parts, which is only whetting my appetite even more for the fall (my absolute favorite season!). It’s been a pretty full week here at Simple Mom, but there has been some great writing and ideas elsewhere around the blogosphere. Here’s some highlights from my Reader this past week:

- How to Live More Simply, and Why it is So Important :: Frugal Dad
- Is Your Bag Too Prepared? :: Small Notebook
- Childhood Essentials :: Mt. Hope Chronicles (the photos alone are inspirational!)
- A Wicked Awesome Mud Room :: The Shabby Nest (a wicked awesome idea!)
- A Stress Test, and Tips to Reduce Stress :: The Wisdom Journal (it’s good to take this test annually)
- We See What We Want to See :: Gather Little By Little
- 28 Astute Takes of Insight on Living a Prolific Life :: Marc and Angel Hack Life

Thanks for sharing my article with your readers! It’s been a real scorcher of a summer around here, too. So much so that our air conditioning bill has been outrageous!
Frugal Dad’s last blog post…Weekly Roundup Returns: Catching Up Edition
The first couple of weeks of August were really hot here, but late this week it has cooled off some. We’ve even gotten some rain. It was nice!
Thanks for including my article about how to beat the heat!

I am SO ready for Fall, too! Thankfully this week we had a few days of cooler temps–which was great since our air was o-u-t for two days. Now it’s hot again and we’re glad the air is back on!
Thanks, Simple Mom!
