Lazy Day Gifts

It's Saturday and I have to say, I really am feeling lazy. That's really not the norm for me because I usually have places to go and people to see. But today... there's really no place I have to be. So I knocked out the normal cleaning and got a couple loads of laundry done. But I think I may go out and buy a magazine or book just because. I'm not sure exactly what I am looking for yet. I am sure the crafty type magazines will draw my attention first, but then I'll brows the books. Look at the best sellers, and whatever else catches my eye.

I think my favorite kind of book are the books for Dummies though. When they first started with this series, I have to admit I thought," Well, that's kind of insulting... Books made for people who are considered dummies because they don't think people are smart enough to figure out where to find the information on their own." But after I picked up one, actually the internet / website book for Dummies when I started developing my Homemade Gift Ideas website I thought, man, these people are really onto something. Breaking information down into easy oieces to understand! Wow, what a concept right? I do this everyday with my kids at school. One of those,"Why didn't I think of that?" moments.
So here's a question for you, if you could write a book "___________________ (fill in the blank) For Dummies" What would you write about? Or, if you were looking for a book to learn how to do something, what Dummies book would it be?

Stress relief

With all that is happening in my home state of Wisconsin, I felt it only fitting to start some stress relief homemade gift ideas. So I wrote an article about aromatherapy bath products and also added a lavender bath salts recipe. Stress relief is so important to keep us healthy in mind and body.

New Year's Law of Abundance

I heard about this the other day on the radio and thought,"What do I have to lose other than a paper check?"



You are to take a blank check. Date it with the current date. Make the check out to you - using your full legal name. Leave the amount box & the amount line blank.

On the memo line write, "paid in full." Sign the check, "Law of Abundance."

Accomplish this task before the first new moon in a new year. (This year it's January 19th) Then, keep the check in your purse of wallet at all times. This check will then bring you prosperity.

Good luck and here's to prosperity!!
