Handbag Purse Hook!

This is brand new from Avon, and one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time!  When going out to eat, I hate putting my purse on the floor -  too dirty to then pick up your purse and hold all those potential germs right next to you!   And unless you get a booth, you can't really keep it beside you.   So I'm very excited about this new solution from Avon.    It looks like a little metal purse, less than 2 inches big, but the handle comes out and unfolds to hang down.   Put the little purse on the table and hang your real purse on the hook under it!  Ahhhhh, finally safe from yucky floors or from hanging on the back of my chair, out of my sight!    Check it out for only $7.99, page 16 of campaign 3.  Click on shop e-brochure .  I got mine this week - now I just need to plan a dinner out with my husband and have a reason to use it!

Avon Clearskin Professional

Do you have frequent or serious breakouts? Avon Clearskin Professional is your answer! First use the 3 step regimen - cleanse with Deep Pore Cleansing Scrub, tone with Clarifying Toner Pads, treat with Daily Correcting Lotion. THEN fade your existing scars away as Avon introduces Acne Mark Treatment - use 2 to 3 times a week after the 3 step regimen to fade the marks and lighten discoloration. This new treatment has maximum strength salicylic acid, and an easy roller-ball applicator. You have nothing to lose on this one but scars!

New Year, New You Cont'd!

Something I want to work on every day is to simplify my life.   Do we really need all the stuff we have, the activities, the planning?    Probably not.   We downsized drastically about a year ago - from a big house in the suburbs to 2 bdr apartment in the city.    There are still a couple boxes I haven't found room for and haven't been able to part with either.  :)    But I am working on it.  

As for other goals, I like this post by Cathy Castillano:   "No" Year's Resolutions.     I could summarize it by saying she gives 3 goals we should strive to accomplish every day:   1.   Don't go to bed angry.   2.   Reconcile all disagreements.   3.  Do everything with your whole heart.    

I think those go a long way to simplifying our lives!

New Year, New You!

This is Avon's motto as we begin 2012.   I like it.    But let me say, I don't believe in setting New Year's resolutions.    Why?   Because of the origin of that practice.   It has to do with Roman worship of the god Janus (from where we get the month January).    So do I think setting a goal means I worship Janus?   No, but setting a bunch of them just at this time is a little creepy and too close to Janus for comfort!   Besides, New Year's resolutions really don't work!    In a few weeks they are usually abandoned and we haven't made any real progress in our lives!

That said, we do need to set goals to improve our lives.    If we don't, we just drift through life and one day, at the end of it, will regret the time we have wasted.  

So lets think about it.  What is important in our lives?   Family, friends, faith, health, education, prosperity.....    Probably all of that and more.   We need to make daily goals for improvement, goals we can actually accomplish instead of some long list we will get discouraged about and abandon in a month.

I like the motto New Year, New You.   I think we should carry it further :   New Day, New You.   Everyday is a new opportunity for improvement.   Everyday is a chance to do the right thing.   Every day starts with the same amount of hours to be either wasted or to benefit us and those around us.

So lets think about it and get specific over the next few days.   We have an opportunity for a New Year, New You!!!
