Great Christmas Gifts 2019

Great Christmas Gifts 2019

The holiday season is marching towards us, and with it, comes immense financial stress. I do not hold to the idea that the holidays should wreck your bank account. That being said, there is a social contract that requires the giving and receiving of gifts so let’s get into it.

1. Poinsettia

This festive flower is a good gift if you intend to gift it before Christmas Day, as it will last…

Hi Eileen, it's 3.57pm and I recently i found out through a friend that my best friend has borderline personality disorder which while it's a bit scary I'm so glad that there is a reason why she treats me the way she does and how she constantly fears that I'm going to leave her, i was reading through the BPD links and it's really reassuring to recognise some of the behaviours, but I don't know how to bring it up to her considering it wasn't her who told me,

If she wasn’t the one who told you she had BPD, I wouldn’t bring it up with her specifically. Just be there for her and support her. Also understand that the BPD may affect the way she interacts with you but it doesn’t make her a bad person. (Not saying you think that but just wanted to clear that up because I think BPD gets a bad rep).

Take care <3

This is perfection.

2015 will be about set tangible goals and following through with achieving them. I want to continue to make a difference in myself, in those around me, and within the community. Here are just a few:

For Me: -Take care of my body; wake up earlier, exercise regularly, eat nutritious meals, drink more water, love and embrace the body I've been given. -Set myself up for success in finding a career; network, resume build, reach out, focus on specific paths that will best fit my strengths as an employee

For Loved Ones: -Tell those I love why I'm proud of them; provide them with tools and insight to help them continue to succeed. -Write letters; thank you cards, love notes, post-its... a little goes a long way.

For the Community: -Smile at everyone -Pick up conversation in unconventional places like the gym or waiting in line for coffee... you never know how you can change someone's day

Blessing Coverlet

Blessing babies with special qualities is ingrained in many cultures - including that of the Celts. Think of fairytales, such as that of Sleeping Beauty. This may be done as part of a baby shower, or a baptism reception. A coverlet is a blanket made from two pieces of fabric with warm batting placed in between. The three layers are held together by yarn ties, which may be left untied at the beginning of this ceremony. Preparations - It may be done with a soft fabric with the sides cut into strips, or with very small scissor cuts used to place the yarn - depending on the type of fabric weave. If it is a loose weave, knit or crochet, the yarn can be slipped through the other threads or strands of yarn. Do not make the coverlet too big, nor too small, since it is a keepsake. Around 5 feet by 5 feet should do. (A little over 1 and a half metres, if you’re doing this outside the US.) If you have any restrictions on what Not to wish for, you'll want to let people know in advance, even before the event. The Blessing - Pass the coverlet from person to person, and ask each participant while holding a pair of untied yarn ends, to name aloud, or to themselves, a quality they possess and value, and wish for the new baby. Examples: "I wish for you my deep pleasure in reading, which has provided me with so much enjoyment in my life." "I wish for you my aptitude in sports, which has helped me think well of myself during hard times and has kept me healthy." "I wish for you deep friendships, which have given me many good memories." As each person finishes his or her wish, they tie the wish into the blanket with a square knot. The blanket passes around until all the yarn ties are knotted. now you have a coverlet that wraps the newborn or child with the blessings of family and community.
