Best Gifts for Him

 

These are the Best of the Best Gifts for your guy and mine!  Below I left notes on why we chose these for our Best Gifts for Him List.  Please let me know your favorites.  If you are looking for something specific, let me know and I’ll be happy to find it for you! You can see a detailed blog post on these gifts with more explanation here.

Don’t miss the the Head Spin convertible lighting system (pictured bottom left above).  This is something your gadget guy will love and use all the time!  It’s no ordinary light. It’s actually a kit that includes four different mounts and quickly converts from a headlamp, flashlight, and even mounts on the handlebars his road or mountain bike.  When our electricity happens to go out in a storm, which seems to be a lot lately!, my husband heads straight for his Head Spin light kit.   Regularly $199 is currently marked down for the holidays to $169.

My Work From Home Style

Mar 25, 2020

Because I’ve worked from home for 24 years, either freelancing PR, event planning, volunteering or blogging, WFH or Work From Home attire is not new to me.  While there are days I stay in workout clothes, I get much accomplished when I get dressed for the day!
