____ 1. Receiving and sending handwritten greeting cards. Even though we have become a society of quick texts and emails, along with messaging on social media, there is nothing like receiving a handwritten greeting card in the mail. I always display that card for a week or two. Then, I decide whether to:
a) store it in a keepsake box for future memories
b) use a portion of the card to make a semi-handmade card
c) use the blank back of the card to jot down notes or a list
d) recycle it
In addition, I love sending handwritten greeting cards as well...and every so often, depending on the occasion, I make the greeting card myself.

____ 2. A journal of gratitude. With everything going on in the world, it can sometimes be challening to focus on positive moments. Something that can help tremendously is a gratitude journal. Just use a journal or notebook you like and write at least three things you are grateful for each day. I like to write mine just before I go to bed, so that I can reflect upon the day. These may be as simple as 'I heard a child joyfully laugh in the park' or 'the basil in the garden smelled so aromatic today.' Doing this can help clear your mind of the negative and help you zone in on the good things in the world.

____ 3. Keeping socks together. I hate losing socks in the washer and dryer, or finding a lone dirty sock after getting everything washed. That's why I really like the Sock Dock. It will hold pairs together through the washer, dryer, and can be hung up or tucked into a drawer with the clean socks attached. It is sold in pairs...one for clean socks, and one for dirty ones.

  In Closing

'How wonderful it is to be able to write someone a letter! To feel like conveying your thoughts to a person, to sit at your desk and pick up a pen, to put your thoughts into words like this is truly marvelous.'
