Personalized Gift Ideas

This is a sponsored post. All opinions are my own. This post also contains affiliate links. Thank you for supporting Kate the (Almost) Great!

That’s right – it’s gift guide season! As always, we’re starting off with personalized gift ideas. I always start with this one because personalized gifts can take longer to arrive because they have to be personalized. But why should you get customized gifts? Well, custom gifts are more meaningful because they’re not a random thing you saw and picked up; you specifically ordered this for the gift recipient. 

So where do you turn for the best customized gifts? Etsy, of course! So after you read this post, check out more personalized gift ideas here.

Video: Kate runs a hand through her hair. White text reads “How I feel knowing that God gave me chronic health issues because I would be too powerful without them”. The audio says “cause I’m too messy and I’m too fuckin clean they told me to get a job”. Kate is a redheaded white woman wearing a green dress with white flowers on it, a black shawl, a silver Celtic knot necklace, and round tortoiseshell glasses

The most common question I get about sharing my ex The most common question I get about sharing my experience with chronic illness is "How do you deal with it?" These 3 quotes are sources of inspiration and indicative of how I do it. ⁣
⁣
1. "Guard your time fiercely. Be generous with it, but be intentional about it." - Davd Duchemin⁣
I am SO intentional with my time. Even when I (rarely) do spur-of-the-moment fun things, I'm doing mental calculations of how to make it happen. ⁣
⁣
2. "Find out who you are and do it on purpose." - Dolly Parton⁣
That's what my blog and advocacy work is. I figured out who I am: someone who helps other patients, who shares her story, who tries to change the world. And I'm doing it on purpose. ⁣
⁣
3. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but power, love, and self-discipline." - 2 Timothy 1:7 ⁣
I will be afraid some times (we all will) but my spirit is not one of fear or timidity. My spirt of power, love, and self-discipline enables me to keep fighting for myself and others. ⁣

▪ Being home in Maine⁣
▪ Spending time with family ... especially when we get to dress up!⁣
▪ Baking. It's really nice to make a finished product that then gets to be enjoyed! (Not to mention that when I cook or bake I can make meals and donuts and cookies that I can eat)⁣
▪ Medieval stuff but ESPECIALLY weird medieval stuff⁣

Obviously I know that I'm more than my illnesses - just because I don't have a ton of followers doesn't mean that this isn't a curated account with a purpose - but this is who I am outside of the Internet.⁣

"I realized recently that, big picture, this is the best my health has been since I got sick. When I got my infection in 2018 that impacted my whole body until 2023, I wasn’t diagnosed with one of my illnesses and 3 of my diagnosed ones weren’t controlled to the level they are now.⁣
So this year my quasi-resolution is being nice to myself and focusing more on thriving than existing. Because I can, for the first time maybe ever, thinking about thriving *and* existing."⁣
