I apologize for the delay in posts. Who am I apologizing to?? I don't even know if anyone reads this stuff, haha. But anyways, in light of my new stressful and time consuming job, I've decided to post stress relievers! Yaaayyy...hope you find something that can help you "calm it down".

Amazon $7.77 Awesome journal that tells you to do different things with the book, like drop it off the side of a building or rip out a page and burn it. Hehe..

Etsy $30.00 How beautiful the fabric is. Warming pillow and Lavender Cooling Eye Pillow.

Etsy $15.00 I'm in love with the color of the beads!! Native American bracelet to promote emotional balance and charity.

Etsy $39.00 There's just something about a big 'ol comfy dress that calms me. One size fits all, love it.

Check out a Jellyfish Exhibit at any of the following Aquariums: Monterey Bay, Long Beach, New York! They're everywhere! :)

Etsy $70.00 Go arts and crafts crazy! Isn't the wooden caddy beautiful?

Etsy $13.99 Go for a walk! What a steal for some hand-made shoes! Click on link for more colors.

Michael's craft store, Price varies with location. My most favorite idea: go to the thrift store and stock up on ceramic dishes/mugs/anything of varying colors. Put ceramics in a large pillow case and take a hammer to it (instant stress relief). Use adhesive to glue pieces together to make fabulous art.

That's all folks. Have a lovely day...

Happy New Year!

It's a brand new year! I'm superstitious like that and feel like something super cool or unusual will happen on special dates like 1/1/11. And what's great is, this year, the chances are higher! We've got 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, and 11/11/11! The last one's gonna be a doozy! haha

In celebration of the new year, I've posted items that are new to me and have never seen before. Hope they're new to you too! Enjoy...
