ADD / ADHD Children : Being Your Child's Best Friend
Do you live with an ADD / ADHD child? If so-- my hat is off to you! ADD / ADHD children are brilliant, full of energy, smart as a whip (as grandma says), and tons of work. They are also the rising sun and the setting star: meaning much of life revolves around them in one way or another. One tactic you might employ is to: be your child's best friend.Hear me out just a bit. I am not promoting parents in "jammies" all day-- everyday, messy homes filled with increasing whirlwind clutter that no-one attends to, nor hot dogs and pizza nightly just to avoid more arguing with an ADD / ADHD child.I am suggesting the reminder we all need with these special needs children: keep perspective.And yes-- try thinking along the lines of being best friends with your child.Best friends are people who look out for the best interest of another. Best friends have a special tolerance for each other.

In Invitations, It?s Something Old - Something New.. Again
It wouldn't surprise Abby McLucas, owner of Abby Jean, a bit to see one of her brides gliding down the aisle in an elegant Vera Wang gown, clasping a bouquet of fresh wheatgrass, with a blush-colored pillbox hat crowning her head. "Bride's today aren't merely accepting tradition; they're embellishing it and doing quite a nice job, I might add!" observes Abby, whose new line of modern engraved wedding invitations launches next month. And while wheatgrass doesn't really "keep," Abby Jean invitations certainly do.Despite their penchant for retro color combinations and decidedly unfussy styles, brides today are opting for a healthy dose of luxury?and tradition?when it comes to their invitations, and that's just what Abby intends to give them. When she first began discussing her new line of engraved wedding invitations, Abby knew she'd encounter some skepticism. After all, engraved invitations have long been considered the epitome of traditionalism and Abby Jean's designs are about as far...

The "Memory" Collector
The "Memory" CollectorEveryone collects something right? It may be baseball cards, hats, or some other type of sports memorabilia. Even if you don't consider yourself a collector of anything, you may be and don't even know it. How about the collection of tools in the cellar you don't really use, but you have to have them! Even maybe all those movies laying around you no longer watch, sounds like a collection to me.More common items people typically collect are things like, coins, military items, guns, and sports items. Generally it will be something that once interested a person, had an impact on their lives or they just simply enjoyed. Me, I am a collector of shot glasses.
What it was that spawned the interest is beyond me, I think it may have started in college. I now have a collection of over 300 shot glasses, and yes, I have had at least 1 shot of some type of a concoction from each one of them. Looking at them now, they are reminders of places I have been, and things I have...
