It's not too late to rustle up a New Year's gift for friends or family. Here's the 2010 survival kit I gave to my husband and children this year.
Here's what I put into it - this list, together with the relevant items:
Candle - to brighten up those dark days
Battery - for when your energy gets low
Tissue - to dust yourself down after those falls ready to start again
Notebook - to record all those triumphs and happy events
Magnet - to attract good luck
Mirror - to look into and remember what a good person you are
Calendar - to enjoy every day.
I put the goodies into some knitted bags I'd made before, but a paper bag or envelope would do just as well.
So see in the New Year with a thoughtful, inspirational little gift.
