How to Beat the Holiday Humbug and. . . .

Two blogs that I would like to recommend:  Lorithayer.com and mothersofbrothersblog.blogspot.com.

Lori wrote: "How to beat the Holiday Humbug" a few weeks ago and the John Tesh radio show noticed it, decided to highlight the article and interview Lori live on their show, part of Lifehack.org.  It was also one of their favorite holiday interviews this year and she will link to the interview on her blog on December 22.  Her blog is always positive, upbeat and has as its theme: "How to Simplify, Connect and Enrich Your Life."  Lori has so many ideas on her web-site.  How she finds time to write, work, be an amazing step-mom to my two grand boys and a wonderful wife to my son, I have no idea, but I am so fortunate to know her.

Lori chooses to be public, but my next recommendation does not, so I will not use her name.  She writes a blog called, mothersofbrothersblog.blogspot.com 
Her writing is witty, sometimes acerbic, but never dull.  If you have young children and sometimes get frustrated with the day-to-day happenings in your life you will be able to relate to her blog.  Not only does she write a blog, but she has written a book called, Mom's Had a Rough Day.

I count as my blessings these two amazing and talented women in my life as I raise my glass in a cyber toast to them.
