Your friendly HVAC gal here to remind folks experiencing extreme cold:

• Do NOT run space heaters on extension cords

• Do NOT shut off heat completely, even if you're leaving town

December #KidLitArtPostcard is here at last! May this month bring you lots of laughter and fun! Take time to do the things you love!

Honestly had so much fun creating this piece. I love using hand painted textures and creating cute characters.
