I want to share three ways to make your holiday season and gifts that you give extra special: 1.  As an option to giving gifts (or add to a gift), write thank you cards.  Thank the person for the impact they have on your life and what you appreciate about them.  2.  Do some detective [...]

Have you purchased all the gifts for those special people on your list?  Really?  Did you purchase something for yourself?  You are someone very special.  You are the person who matters most to you and definitely deserves to be treated very special and treasured.  We spend so much time, energy, and money to go out [...]

Are you going to be away from home during the holidays?  If so, make sure that you don’t forget to take care of your home while you’re away.  You need to do more than lock the door and drive away.   Protect your home from intruders that may notice you’re gone.  Use automatic timers that turn [...]

As 2007 comes to a close, we’ll cover a countdown to the end of 2007.  We’ll discuss some holiday survival tips along with winding down from 2007 and ramping up to a great 2008! Although food can be a big part of the holidays, it doesn’t have to be the main focus.  Enjoy good friends [...]

What are YOU grateful for?  As we prepare for Thanksgiving festivities, stop and ask yourself what you are grateful for?  Make a list.  What are the special gifts or blessings in your life?  If there are special people that are on your list, let them know.  Make a phone call, write an e-mail or card, [...]

I LOVE pumpkin pie.  One of the things I love about the Fall is the abundance of pumpkin flavors and scents.  I found a pumpkin pie decaf coffee that I enjoy so much.  I use DaVinci sugar free pumpkin pie gourmet syrup in my coffee.  It is wonderful. If you’d like the aroma of pumpkin [...]

As the weather gets colder and winter is approaching, we prepare our cars for the cold temperatures by adding antifreeze.  We winterize our outdoor irrigation systems, close external home vents, bring in outdoor furniture, bbq, and flower pots.  Our vehicles and homes are ready – what else is left?  How about the protective layer of our [...]

Live your life with integrity.  You may talk a good talk but are you walking the walk?  Do you live your life as you would if your loved ones were watching you.  Living with integrity means you really are who you appear to be.  How you live your life is reflected in your promises, what [...]
