find out your age pick a color

Quizzes are always fun when you’re not in school and they don’t count for grades, so let’s have some fun here. I found this quiz while I was browsing, and it turns out that I’m really a teenager! I’m not sure whether that’s good or bad, but who cares? This is all for fun anyway.

Let color tell your age! Take this quiz that tells how old you really are based on the colors you choose, and have fun with it, Grandma!

 

6 More Gifts To Give Yourself

I hope you liked my last post about gifts to give yourself! I know I thought it was pretty good. In fact, I thought it was so good that I thought up 6 more gifts to give yourself. So do it – because you deserve it!

  1. Classes. Is there something new that you’ve always wanted to learn, or something you’d want to do for fun? Sign yourself up for classes and expand your world a little. Some suggestions: cooking, writing, comedy, acting, dancing, figure skating, language, sewing.
  2. Subscription boxes. With a subscription box you get a new gift every month. There are gift box subscription services in so many categories- makeup, coffee, crafts, fruit- that you’ll have a hard time deciding which one you really want. Click here for some ideas.
  3. Dinner out. Are you the one who’s responsible for the meals in your home? If yes, I can’t think of a better gift than a dinner out. That means no planning, shopping, prepping, or cleaning for you. I’m certainly in for that!
  4. Perfume. Go and treat yourself to a new fragrance. This is a really worthwhile gift because a new bottle will last you a very long time, and every time you spray it on you’ll remind yourself about that time you thought you were special enough to give it to  yourself.
  5. A fabulous piece of jewelry. If you’re budget allows for the real stuff, by all means- splurge! But you don’t have to spend so much to get a beautiful piece of costume jewelry, and it will go very far to spruce up your look and give some zip to an old outfit.
  6. The perfect mug. I wonder if everyone knows this, but coffee really does taste better when you drink it out of the perfect mug. Get one that feels good in your hand, or one that has an image or slogan that makes you smile. Give yourself the mug that will enhance you enjoyment of your coffee.

7 Gifts To Give Yourself

7 gifts to give yourself myshopdiscounts

Did you finish your holiday gift list yet? Did you get everyone? Are you sure- really, really sure that you didn’t forget someone? Someone important? Like yourself, maybe? At this busy time of year, when so many of us are busy with family and creating the perfect holiday for our loved ones, it’s really important to take a moment and think about what we need to make ourselves feel special.

Here’s a list of 7 simple gifts to give yourself. So on and treat yourself- you deserve it!

  1. Take a walk. Take some time to get away for a little while from everyone else’s needs and demands and focus on you! Walking is a great thing to do during a break- the endorphins (feel-good hormones) that your body releases when you exercise will energize you, soothe you, and clear your head.
  2. Go get a manicure. Going for a mani is one of my favorite easy indulgences. You’re being pampered, you’re forced to just sit there and do nothing else, and the final result lasts for about a week. Choose a nail polish color you love and you’ll smile every time you look at your hands. If you have a little more time splurge on a mani-pedi!
  3. Go to a movie. Yeah, you can watch a movie at home, and if that’s all you can manage, then do it and enjoy it! But if you can get away for a couple of hours go out to the movie theater and treat yourself to popcorn!
  4. Give yourself some flowers. It’s always nice when someone sends you flowers, but you can also get them for yourself. Go to the florist and have fun picking out a bouquet that makes you happy, or call in and order a special delivery to yourself.
  5. Redecorate a room. Does your bedroom or office need a facelift? If a room where you spend a lot of time is in need of an update, now’s the perfect time to treat yourself to it. And it doesn’t have to be a major overhaul, either. No matter what your budget there’s always something fabulous you can do that will make you feel good when you’re there. Painting the walls (or even just one wall as an accent), adding drapes, or even some throw pillows are all easy and inexpensive fixes that go a long way.
  6. Buy the coziest pajamas you can find. Is there anything more indulgent?
  7. Get a fancy box of chocolate. Just like flowers- who ever said you can’t buy yourself a gift box of chocolate? Oh- and don’t share!
