(Keep in mind, these are simply suggestions and we are not asking that you bring one from each category. Contribute as much as you wish! )
1. Gift Swap-Do you have a gift at home that someone else might find more useful? Bring it for our gift swap!
2. Pay It Forward-Have you read a really great article recently or any form of information that you would like to share with the group? If so, bring 20 copies to share at our next meeting!
3. Hot Tips-Have you heard of any fun fund raisers, cooking classes or any "Hot Tip" you want to post on our bulletin board to share with the group? If so, bring your tip with you to our meeting!
4. Idea Swap: Depending on the topic, it would be great if each guest brought an idea to share for our group conversation. Get your ideas down on paper and bring it along with you to the meeting to present to the group. If possible, make 20 copies to share or just bring your original and we can distribute copies for you at our next meeting.

I'm more casual and comfy these days!! And, I don't buy as many high-heeled shoes as I used to. I also sport the pony tail more than I used to, as well :)

Pretty much same as Amy. Not to concerned about latest fashion, just want comfort and easy.

Hi,
I love to read over this site and find all the info useful!!
I just wanted to say I love wearing Tshirts/jeans or shorts now that I have kids. With all the stains I get from all three of them I need things that are easy to treat and wash. I remember the days of wearing more "dressy" things but that was in the past!!

Hi Sam!!! Great to hear from you! :)
I think my style/look has totally changed. Like the rest of you, I am not interested in the latest fashion. I wish I had time to shop and get ready everyday...but I just don't. Sometimes I get sad thinking about my current wardrobe but I know it is totally worth it. I would much rather spend time with my kids vs. getting done up everyday. These days a shower is an added luxury to the morning routine!! Sort of sad... I know one day I will re-join the rest of the world again...but probably no time soon! :)

Two years later.....I opened my own blogger account!!!! Maria
I am way more comfortable in my own skin...it's weird really. I just don't really care to much about what others think anymore. I am a MOM and that is the most important thing. There are so many more important things to use that time for. Like posting comments on this site!!!!!
