I have spent a lovely morning with your blog. I have chosen to repeat each of the "30 Chic Days" series in 2017. The first month of each quarter will be Chic month. I have written a single tip, idea or inspiration into each day of my planner. It will be the first thing I see every morning. I'm excited about the possibilities. I somehow lost my 2016 planner in mid November and my productivity and focus have plummeted. Time to get back on track. With your help, 2017 will be the best year ever! Thank you again, I wish you and Paul all the best in your new life. You are such an inspiration for making dreams come true.Kerry in Calgaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06247900246713119666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130537499074859934.post-76009683467133481652016-12-26T22:54:00.958+13:002016-12-26T22:54:00.958+13:00That is a lovely photo of your husband and yoursel...That is a lovely photo of your husband and yourself, Fiona, with the two furry ones!

My husband and I treated ourselves this year, and stayed overnight at the Bee and Thistle Inn in Old Lyme Connecticut.(It is a lovely old 1756 Inn.) It was elegantly decorated for Christmas with trees and greenery and had some magnificent gingerbread houses. We enjoyed live guitar music while sitting next to a fireplace sipping "special" coffees that evening, and retired to our beautiful bedroom complete with fireplace, to relax and talk. We enjoyed a wonderful English Christmas tea the next day, with special teas and tea sandwiches and cookies, all while listening to live harp music and admiring the beautifully decorated Inn. What a wonderful husband I have- the tea was attended by all women(he was the only man attending) yet he made that afternoon so special for me and enjoyed it himself in the process. It was a nice change to pamper ourselves for once, after spending so many years sacrificing to make sure we created the best Christmases we could for our three children. We have decided to make some changes, as our children are grown and will be starting to have their own families and traditions, and spend more time together creating OUR own new traditions for ourselves, as well as spending time with our children. We are also preparing food for a soup kitchen our son is working at on Christmas day, and would like to start to be more involved in reaching out to others at this time as well as during the new year. Each of your books, as well as your videos, have provided me with so much inspiration to work on myself, my home, and my life in general. Thank you for helping me to realize that it is not selfish to take good care of yourself, have fun and treat yourself special at times, and FEEL beautiful, as well as live a life filled with beauty. Wishing you and your family the Merriest Christmas and the Happiest New Years!
