From Our Friends: October 5, 2012
Happy Friday, and welcome to another installment of From Our Friends, our weekly roundup of great articles from our fabulous friends around the web! This week’s edition includes posts on putting together a better workout routine, resistance band exercises, everything you need to know about the fungal meningitis outbreak happening right now, some DIY Halloween tips (wow, it’s October already!), and some fun wooden toys that could even be considered art. Enjoy these, dear readers, and we’ll see you next week!

If you live in one of the impacted states or have received a steroid injection lately, it’s important to know the signs and symptoms. Read more at Blisstree.
4. Yikes, it’s already time to get out the holiday décor. Question is, are you going to buy this year or DIY? Store bought Halloween décor can get pretty pricey so why not set the mood with some DIY candles and save some dough. Read all about it at EcoSalon!
5. Check out these wooden toys on MightyNest. Beautiful, simple and fun. And no batteries needed 😉
