O-Mama Featured on Your Family Today

This year, I feel like it is a double wammy - a slow economy mixed with the kids endless "I want that!".  So articles like the one from Sarah Mahoney on http://www.yourfamilytoday.com/ titled "Raise A Smart Spender" is just what I needed.

Michelle Tinger from http://www.o-mama.com/ (Opinionated Mama) was featured in the article with her tip:

5. Be giving, from start to finish.



Toy drives are great but impersonal. So, Michelle Tingler, founder of the Web site O-mama takes her kids -- ages 10, 7 and 3 -- to the Angel Tree near their home in San Clemente, Calif., where they each pick a wish left by needy children. “Last year, one girl asked for a pair of black Converse shoes for her brother, another child asked for socks and one for school supplies,” she says. “My kids were like, ‘They don’t have pencils?’ And I got to say, ‘That’s right, they don’t have a lot of things.’” Tingler and her kids decide how much to spend on granting these wishes, and then they shop together.


 Thanks, Sarah!

Got Milk? Mom Bloggers, Latte's, Cookies + More

When Shanna Coady, the lifestyle guru, My Favorite Everything blogger and all around gal-in-the-know, needed a partner in crime to go to a GOT MILK? event in LA, how could I pass it up?  Spend time with a friend plus lattes for me and hot chocolate and treats for the kids - sounds like a great day to me.

While other kids got into a craft, our kid covered himself GOT MILK? tatoos from head to toe. Classic.

O-Mama.com Weighs In On Tiger's "Transgressions"

O-Mama, the online resource for news and events from a mom's perspective, recently posted an article commenting on Tiger's "Transgressions" that was interesting. 

STRAY CAT: Tiger Admits Transgressions


Tiger Woods issued a statement that his "transgressions" are a private matter. Easy there Tiger. There is a recording of a cellphone call that has been made public (allegedly by him to a "friend" asking her to remove her name from the caller ID because his wife was checking his phone), a public statement from the police department and a series of supposed mistresses lined up on the media scratching post. You made it our business. Being a big cat that our little "kitties" look up to brings on a whole new level of public interest and media scrutiny. Being a billionaire brand changes the rules.

A Gift To Fit Every Size and Every Age - Body Design Gift Certificates

Can you believe it?  Christmas is coming.


Some years I get my mom something she can wear. Other years I get her something practical and in between I pick up some sort of new technology that I think she should be updated on.  Most years she doesn't like it, it doesn't fit, it's not her style and she doesn't want to learn one more thing that has to do with technology.

So what have I learned? My "go-to" gift every year is a Body Design gift certificate.
 
A gift certificate from Body Design is always appreciated because it is the versatile gift that has something for everybody. Recipients can choose from personal training sessions, fitness classes, massage, facials, body treatments and more.

Call Kathleen or Amanda at 949.719.2600 or e-mail getfit@bodydesignonline.com.
