As a single mom of a kiddo with special needs it is imperative that I campy spirit towards tranquility at this time of year lest I be swept up in a chaotic storm only to settle down as the sun sets on January 1st of the next year.<br /><br />What I do to "weather the daily storm" is drink/bring hot tea with me EVERYWHERE. Sipping hot tea ENSURES that you will slow down and just breathe....<br /><br />Breaths taken. :)<br /><br />Jayna' - veganmommie@gmail.com<br /><br />Warm, happy, healthy hollydaze to all!!CoffeeAndCopyrightshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17356608203945308445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17426446.post-57185001461023101982014-12-15T14:16:43.089-05:002014-12-15T14:16:43.089-05:00Thank you Kimberly so much, and congrats to the ot...Thank you Kimberly so much, and congrats to the other winners.

Walk along in the peaceful silence of the snowfall, revel in the whitewashed beauty of your neighborhood, and smile at all the passers-by. If there is no snow where you live, then I suggest sitting by a lit Christmas tree and listening to your favorite Christmas carols or relaxing music.
