Mind lending me a hand?

First - thanks for the lovely card, devoosha! Such a sweet way to start the day.
I have my cards and I'm going to mail them on Monday so the nine of you should get it by Friday at the latest. Again, it's not much, but things like these can certainly introduce a little cheer.

The reason for this post: I'm looking for ideas on what I should get my mother for Christmas. She's had a really tough couple of months and I'm thinking something related to relaxation/meditation might be good, but I'm game for any and all suggestions at the moment. Well, maybe not any and all - $300 is my upper limit and it has to be something available in stores because online shipping in time will be nigh impossible. Thanks for any suggestions in advance!

LOGO is my new favorite channel.

Anyway, I'm seconding the new age-y stuff for your mother. Also, perhaps comfy flannel pjs or a robe. Those items are really easy to pick up in stores and everyone likes them.

*grin* Yes, and everyone likes GIVING them as well. She was strolling around in a fairly new-looking robe a little while ago so that may not be an option. I want to give her her aromatherapy stuff, perhaps, and a certificate for some meditation-type dealie but don't know where to start. Meh.

Isn't it awesome? I'm not a fan of the whole "look at us! we're planning a marriage!" type shows, no matter what the orientation of the couple involved, but I never fail to find something interesting on the channel on the occasion. You should have seen me when they aired the Erasure concert thing a little while back - I jumped around squealing like a little girl in-between singing along with Andy.
