I’ll be blunt: I don’t even try to do Christmas cards because I can’t get it together in time. Don’t want to try. Don’t really care. So what. I like New Year’s Eve much better anyways. Always have. Most likely always will. The reflection of year’s past, the planning of new goals for the future,…

FUN. My Holiday Hero.
I have received information about the TYLENOL® Holiday Heroes promotion from McNeil Consumer Healthcare Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc., the makers of TYLENOL®. The opinions stated are my own.

But this year’s tree-experience put me to the test. Talk about a festive fail. I came this close to abandoning my…
FUN-lanthropy! The Give-Back Party.
As many of you experienced a few weeks ago, I’m a bit obsessed with giving back this season. (I’m convinced it’s the mom-compassion thing that’s doing it. Or it could be the warm-and-fuzzy vibe at work, Hallmark’s “Home & Family.”) Through all the shopping and decorating and getting-together-with-friends before everyone disappears for their own family…
