Stylemindchic Holiday Gift Guides.....{his and hers}!


It's here....the season of giving...and giving....and giving again. 
When it comes to gifts I like to think personal, stylish, useful and unique.  
A stylish wrapping element is always a plus and adds such a personal touch.

We are making our list and checking it twice with the Stylemindchic Gift Guides for 2012.

 Make her Swoon!!

You are a giver .........and you are gifted
(maybe that's just the School Psychologist in me talking)
but I'm certain it's absolutely true!

Running on empty.........


I suppose it was bound to happen.....all the planning, shopping, prepping, dashing, cooking, celebrating, late nights, hosting of Thanksgiving, plus a whirlwind family trip to San Francisco for the weekend to celebrate my husband's Big Birthday. And then it was right back to work on Monday-I'm still not unpacked.



This morning I hit the wall....feeling achy, slightly feverish, exhausted and generally yucky all around..... hot tea and a cozy blanket STAT!  I'll be fine-I just need some rest and to take the pace down to zero
for a day or so.

Can anyone relate?





My crazy agenda has been reduced to nothing....except a lovely comfy bed, a stack of  magazines begging to be read, a mug of pomegranate green tea, some fresh mandarin oranges, a fragrant candle and a furious rain storm outside my windows, reminding me exactly how good it feels to be indoors today. I would like to say that my gray cat Jack is keeping me company but I don't think he's even noticed I'm even home. Non the less-it's his regular routine I'm keeping today. Perhaps I'll even get in a cat nap to heal what ails me.....

How about you? Do you have any tips to keep from overdoing it during the holiday season?
We would love to hear them.


Cheers,

Give Thanks..........


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I have grown to appreciate Thanksgiving Day more and more each year. It's a wonderful time to celebrate with family without the gift giving frenzy.  On Thanksgiving day I always take a look back on my year and give thanks for the good slices of life and blessings for which I am grateful.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The beauty of nature all around......................


      Love in life...............a shared journey.
 
 
Family~our growing, changing, evolving, loving family........

 
 
Girl Friends..............


 
 
 
 
The adventure of travel.................
 

The excitement of challenging new projects and a new business, combined with my gratefulness and appreciation for friends, old and new, who are encouraging me. My blog is 10 months old and I feel tremendously blessed to have connected with a number of talented bloggers (see my blog roll to the right for favorite reads) and my lovely readers.
Thank you.
 
I'm also thankful for ............
 
 
 
.....and a little bit of extra help around the house!
 

 
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours today!
 
 


Thankful,

It's almost Black Friday at the
