What Gift To Give Someone Who Has Suffered A Loss – Especially During The Holidays

By Jan Carroll

My Mum died from breast cancer on November 22nd when I as 23 years old. I feel her loss every year on this day. The years since it happened doesn’t make it any easier.

When someone dies often there are lots of family around to help the one left behind. When a loss occurs close to the holidays family and friends rally around to try and make the holidays easier. They bring food, share memories and try to make sure those grieving are surrounded by love and support.

So the first year of the holidays is usually covered when someone is grieving. But what about the next year, the year after that…

The loss of a loved one close to Christmas is always difficult to deal with. After the first year friends and family tend to go back to their own routine. They tend to forget about the person who has lost a loved one. Life takes over, goes back to more normal for them and the grieving person is left more to cope on their own.

Until the holidays roll around. Then you wonder what you can do to make it better.

With the anniversary of my Mum’s death I started to think what would help during this time and I came up with some ideas that I think will make a difference to someone you love who is feeling a great loss at this time of year.

Personal time gifts you can give are:

1. Always the perfect present is your time with them. If you can take them out for coffee, dinner, anything to spend time with them. Take time to listen, empathize. Follow up with a call or two over the holidays.

2. Offer a service to them. Maybe they need help to clean out closets, drawers, give away items to the needy. Just be sure that they are well past the major grieving stage or they may let you box up items that that wish they hadn’t years later.

3. Take a few minutes to call on Christmas eve and Christmas day. A familiar voice can make a world of difference to someone.

Here are some gifts you can purchase that I think will not only make their Christmas day bright, but will bring a smile to them long past the day.

Sending flowers is a lovely idea but they only last so long. A flower of the month club, like orchids, will not only last a long time, but be a great gift month after month. check it out here

When someone is dealing with grief food is usually the last thing they think about. They may have a hard time taking pleasure in preparing food for one or working in the kitchen where old memories of their loved one still fill the air.

So a few ideas are:

A gourmet breakfast club. A monthly arrival of breakfast treats that they will love. Check them out here

Or, how about dinner and a movie club. They will not only get a dinner every month but a movie. Check it out here

Or another great idea is soul soothing gifts. These not only help the heart feel better but also the body and soul. Check them out here.

Any of these will be great for any holiday they are trying to get through.

Mum, I love you and miss you with all my heart!

Let’s Talk About Jewelry Gift Ideas For The Woman Who Has Everything

By Jan Carroll

Women love jewelry as a gift. Whether it is a birthday, anniversary, or a Christmas present.

How do I know, well I am a woman and love jewelry!

Yes we do!

I recently read an article in a newspaper (that I won’t name here because I don’t want to cause a riot of outraged women outside their office). The reporter wrote that women don’t like jewelry as a Christmas present, or as a present for any other occasion for that matter.

Say what!

Which planet was this reporter from? Not earth, that’s for sure!

The last I looked I am a woman, yep just check with Billy and he’ll confirm I am indeed a woman (hear me roar!)… and this woman is here to say women love getting jewelry, and all sorts of different types as well.

Whether it’s an exquisitely cut diamond ring, small but tastefully chain, or a big bold bracelet, it has a place in her life and in her wardrobe and they will all work, and she will wear, depending on her mood. Take any outfit. Add bling. Presto, new outfit! Jewelry brings almost endless options and configurations to a woman’s wardrobe.

And, you may not see it but when she goes into work after you give her the gift, or is out with the girls, she will show it off. Whether she rubs her nose to show off the ring, or scratches her head to show off the bracelet, trust me, she will be proud to show it off.

Women love bling!

So don’t ignore a jewelry present for a woman. Here is a list of great selections we have:

Full on bling, have a look at a great selection here.

If you are not ready to buy her a ring, no problem, you can give her a necklace, earrings, and more different types of jewelry. Have a look here.

If you do want to give her a special diamond piece, maybe even propose, then you can find a wonderful selection here.

I have no idea why anyone would say women don’t love jewelry as a gift. Whether it is a necklace, bracelet, belly ring, earrings, or any other piece of jewelry your woman who has everything will love it. It’s just a matter of finding a piece of jewelry that is different, fits who she is, and will thrill to show it off as much as it did to receive it from you.

Bring on the Bling Baby, Your Woman Will Love You For It!

A Game Gift For Children And Parents – But Don’t Tell The Kids!

By Jan Carroll

Such a cool gift for kids. Makes you want to be one again!

Mini roadster simulator

This arcade mini roadster simulator is a single-player arcade game that pitches and rolls as drivers zoom their mini roadster around a simulated racecourse.

This is a more entertaining and immersive racing experience than computer games, the rally-striped roadster’s chassis sways as drivers lean into turns and gently bucks when it hits rough terrain.

Drivers operate the vehicle as they would a real roadster by pressing the foot pedal to accelerate and turning the steering wheel to navigate the course. The roadster and its movements are replicated on a 19″ LCD monitor integrated into its windscreen that displays elapsed time, score, and speed.

A jump button launches the virtual race car airborne to avoid obstacles and collect bonus points.

How cool is that!

This arcade roadster is for Ages 4-12, but hey, if parents can squeeze in the seat they can play this when the kids have gone to bed.

A great family gift right don’t you think – just don’t tell the kids!

Oh I so want one too!

A Gift Idea For A Kid That Takes Them Away From Screen Time

By Jan Carroll

When I was a kid we only had a TV, and even that had limited channels. So we had a lot of play time because, well basically that’s all we could do!

I have seen articles, commercials, and many other media blasts stating that kids these days are spending way too much time on iPhones, tablets, computers, etc., and not enough time playing. Not enough time exercising.

I read an article today, in our local paper, that talked about kids becoming interested in archery because of the move trilogy “Hunger Games”. Kids that love, and are following the “Hunger Games” trilogy, are also getting physically involved in the sport. How great is this!

What a great gift to give a kid who has everything! Not only the enjoyment of being involved, but an actual sport that takes them away from sitting in front of a screen.

Archery looks a lot easier than it is and will help kids develop strength, hand to eye coordination and increases their focus/concentration.

I found this:

BARNETT BAR-1103 Tomcat junior archery set

The Barnett Tomcat Junior Archery Set includes a bow with a soft touch that makes it a good choice for kids.

It starts your novice archer off with easy draw weights and draw lengths.

As your child’s skill level increases, the draw weights and draw lengths can be increased.

Features like the soft-touch rollers and the rounded cams make this a good choice for young archers who need to concentrate on the fundamentals.

The package includes 3-pin fiber-optic sight, soft-touch finger rollers, and two arrows.

Check out the BARNETT BAR-1103 Tomcat junior archery set

Not only is this a great gift for a kid, but it takes them back into play time, while they are actually exercising, and may actually give them a skill that could turn into a life long sport!
