Sharks two weeks in a row? (Cue the Jaws soundtrack!) But we've also got a summertime cassoulet, makeup palettes, job fairs, and controlling your sister, oops we mean inspiring her to get things done! Ah family time.
Last Week's PixieTips
We've got summer soup, the best SPF, Tracy's job search and Kelly's greatest fear — sharks in the swimming pool. Ah, life is good.
Imposing Structure on Other PeopleCan it actually be done? After four years of working with Kate and 37 years of being her little sister, Kelly would know!
Bayhead, NJ
Time to scrap The Lousy Housewife does Figs Bay & Wine. Just too much to do and too little time. SO, it's travel log time. Bayhead, NJ is an underrated, quaint little seaside town perfect for an impromptu vacation.
The Sharks Are Circling
Tracy goes to a job fair. Gulp. A slice of the cultural milieu that I never want to have to experience first hand. Thankfully she braves it for us.

I admit it. During my first months of wedded bliss I was a little hurt when my new sister-in-law didn’t sign her Christmas card. But for personality types who make decisions based on subjective value systems — Organics, Fun Freedom and Classic Freedom — my disappointment was pretty normal, if a bit self-involved. Since I was raised to believe you had to sign the card to show you care, it took my own subjective experiences of an exhaustive motherhood to help me let go of my belief that signing a card equals care and attention.
When it comes to signing holiday cards or hand addressing them, for half the types out there, logic doesn’t enter the picture — until you have a full time job, two kids and a husband with too many friends or you are exhausted beyond belief by your own specific mayhem. So for you tired Organics, Fun and Classic Freedoms, and for those of you who have the privilege of making decisions based on logic and facts — Smarts (for a reason), Fun and Classic Structures —then I have the best resource for you.

For about the same price as Minted or Tiny Prints, you can create a custom card, and they will address, stuff, stamp and send them out on your behalf. I know! You can do as little or as much as you want. But we should all heed the logic in taking full advantage of such a service and make it perfectly normal to just send a card, especially if you’ve gone to all the trouble to customize it! Life should be easy and Cardstore.com definitely helps.
