During the Holidays we get caught up with all of our plans.

Holly Bowne Devastating News

I just received some devastating news. My son informed me he is not going trick-or-treating this year! It was bad enough when my daughter stopped. I’m having déjà vu. This reminds me of how I felt when my daughter was 2-1/2 years old and I learned that naptimes didn’t last forever. Ridiculously,… Continue

Christy Aune Have an "Eek-O-Friendly" Halloween

Nowadays Halloween is big business. Almost $6 billion a year is spent on costumes, candy, decor and other accessories, most of which are made from unhealthy, unsustainable materials, by people who may not be paid living wages or treated fairly. Most of the stuff – what isn’t consumed – winds up in landfills. It is time to get back to basics and have good clean fun! GreenHalloween is a non-profit, grassroots initiative striving to crea… Continue

The Gift Therapist Christmas in July

Times are tough and the holiday gift giving season is getting closer. What to do? Start planning your holiday giving now. Note that I said giving rather than shopping! Yes, we must factor shopping into the equation, but for now let's just concentrate on creating a strategic giving plan. It sounds so technical doesn't it? Don't fear...it's actually quite simple. But you need to start now and get your ducks (and dollars) in a row as soon as possible! Here are are five tips that can help you plan… Continue

Momversation Do You Have a Good Relationship with Your In-Laws?


Your family - you can't choose them. But it's important to have a good relationship with them. And that can sometimes be difficult with your in-laws. They didn't raise you; they might not even like you (gasp!), but you have to spend holidays, birthdays, and special events with them. So, how are you dealing with in-laws? Dana Loesch of Mamalogues brings the question up for discussio… Continue

Lesley Dewar Retired? Well, not quite.....

Well, it’s official. I have given up my day job! But this is not the usual “given up my day job” message that you get, via the internet, for WAHM. My LinkedIn profile is due for a major overhaul now, because I have had to retire as a financial planner. Retired? Well, more a change of direction forced by health issues that will not stop me from pursuing my love of writing and communicating. Stories My Nana Tells are for the young and the young at heart. Why a red helicopter? Bec… Continue

Heather Earth Promise:Celebrating Just Got A Little Bit Greener

greenandhealthy How Do You Look a Gift Horse in the Mouth?

(Warning: If you are related to me or a close friend of mine or the parent to a close friend of one of my children, please don’t read this.) I am a complete closet Grinchiscrooge. A potent mix of the two most iconic, anti-holiday characters ever known to man. I have learned too much to be able to enjoy holidays and birthdays anymore. At least, not your typical American style celebration with festive disposable dishes and decorations, over-packaged and wrapped gifts that come from poorly paid la… Continue

Rain Fordyce Fertility Holidays and Just Welcoming Spring

Julie Cole My Bloody Valentine

There are only a few things that I like about Valentine's Day, and when I say 'few' I actually mean one. I fondly remember my mom sneaking a little chocolate and note into our lunch boxes on Valentine's Day. It was memorable because we were not the kind of kids who had treats showered upon us. I have enjoyed carrying on that tradition with my school aged children. That about sums up the joy I get out of Valentine's Day. The main problem is that I have a strong aversion to anything cheezy and… Continue
