Holy pally gettin ready for Northrend

Well, I managed to level my holy pally from 15 to 58 without a single quest aside from random dungeon quests that were shared...
In doing so I've neglected how to DPS as holy spec, but that's another issue.
My main concern right now is any addons that might help me out. Due to the fact that I've done nothing but heal dungeons since the Barrens, I'm quite good at it, and I receive commendation on almost every run, even the biggest sketchiest pulls we survive. But, as I read through the posts here, I'm realizing that time between heals is going to start becoming more of an issue than it currently is, and my style of clicking the target then pressing my keybind might not work too well.
Currently I have FoL keybound to H, with HL bound to shift+H, and holy shock set on actionbar number 1. This is all very easy for me given my hand placement, but I feel that maybe a click setup might work better.
Also, my Xperl frames have this very annoying problem, if I am in combat, any buff or debuff on me will not have a tooltip. Once I am out of combat, I can mouseover the icon and see what it is. This is a bit dangerous as I cannot tell if I'm being silenced or not.
And lastly, I'm looking for a good cast bar addon. The way my UI is setup, I have my characters pic + stats on the bottom next to the chat window, with the standard party frame on the left side. I'd like to be able to put a cast bar right next to the party frame, so my eyes don't have to move as far to see when my casts are done.

Also, i forgot to mention, I'm having an issue during various times where my heals will be cut in half. Currently a decent FoL crit for me will be around 1600, but at random times it will crit 600... same with HL, a good crit is 5.5k-ish, and sometimes it will barely crit 2k. I'm not seeing any debuff on me during this time, and all spell stats remain unchanged.
Just wondering if anyone might have any insight on this issue.

Your later issue seems to be because of Mortal Strike effects. Or perhaps a trinket increasing your SP by alot?
Some people (including me) say grid + clique is the way to go.
Some prefer healbot.
For a cast bar try out quartz it's the best cast bar addon i've had so far.
For your debuff tooltips not showing in combat, usually there are options in the addons disabling tooltips to be shown in combat. I'm not familiar with x-pearl so dont know about that. But it's worth looking for.

can anyone shed some more light on the mortal strike effects thing? i've only heard of it a couple times, and from what i've seen there is no telling that you have the effect on you, or when it goes away...

The effect isn't necessarily applied to you.
Mortal Strike
reducing the effectiveness of any healing by 50%
There are several versions for different classes and alot of mobs will have this ability too.
The one i linked is the warrior talent.
As for telling if it's there or not...
There will always be a debuff present.
Mob versions usually only last for 6-10 seconds.
As any other debuff it comes with a timer either in the tooltip or on your debuff bar if it's applied to you.
