When I first got married I discovered that my wife loved anything that had her monogram on it. That was low hanging gift fruit for a couple of years. The hand towels in the bathroom, the beach towels and gym bag all were emblazoned with her initials. However, after a while the thrill was gone and my gift fruit had gone the way of the dodo. Personal Creations takes the personalization of gifts to new heights by being able to truly personalize all manner of gifts.

This is part of a compensated campaign. All thoughts are 100% my own. Having said that, I really do love giving my wife and family quality gifts, it’s even better when she gives you that look like “oh, I love it!”. Yeah, so Christmas is literally just around the corner. Do not freak out if you need to get a couple more items. Don’t even freak out if you need a personalized item that will blow the socks off of that special someone. Personal Creations has some of the most unique items on the market, can personalize all of them and your wife/girlfriend or you will love them.
So, I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting (#MC) for #RadioShack. I received a gift card there and a promotional item as a thank you for participating. Growing up we all used to go to Radio Shack didn’t we? When I went with my father he was always looking at something that confused me and I gravitated to the diodes, transistors and circuit boards. It’s not that I understood them any more than what my father was looking at, they just seemed so much cooler.

They have a wide selection of unique holiday gifts that can be personalized for your family. Want to save 20% on your Christmas or holiday orders? Here’s a handy link that’ll allow you to do that! The story of Christmas decorations and me are like that of many men.

Your story may differ a bit from mine, but I’m sure that there are some similarities.

Time magazine had an article recently on super achieving moms on Wall Street and their stay-at-home husbands. The same author did a follow up piece on her blog that broke it down even further about being a house husband to a power mom on Wall Street. Her conclusion and the comments on the Time website offer insight into both sides. They also provide a compelling argument for tort reform and a good excuse to lovingly smack any lawyer who thinks that they don’t earn enough money.

On a cold, rainy Sunday we received tickets to the Festival of the SEAson at Georgia Aquarium, featuring SCUBA Claus, the FantaSEA in Lights, Mermaid Performance and Seaside St. Nick. Not that you really have to convince our children to go see animals. This, however, was different – we were combining Santa Claus and animals – not to mention that this was the first family trip out together in at least a month, since the entire family has been sick with stomach flu, foot & mouth or colds since mid-November. To put it simply: excitement was off the charts.

Man of Tai Chi is the story of a tai chi student who is fighting in a tournament in China. The tai chi student is played by Tiger Chen who has been doing stunts in many high profile martial arts movies since Crouching Tiger. His character in the movie is also called Tiger, but anyone who has ever seen a Jackie Chan movie can forgive that bit of name play. The story in Man of Tai Chi is straight forward stuff, but the fight scenes are really good and the movie is better than you would expect.
