Day off & dealing with chapped lips

I have the day off today. Thank goodness!!

At least now I can get a chance to go ahead and update some of my blogs and finish off some paid assignments I still have to do. Yippy!! Maybe I’ll get a chance to finish reading this book I have. I have like a million and one more books to read still. It’s crazy.

Ya this post is going to be completely random because I’m going to talk about something else.

I got friggin chapped lips and they are pissing me off. The thing I don’t understand is how the heck did I get chapped lips if I use chapstick EVERYDAY and apply it a hundred and one times. Does that make any sense?? Do you have the answer?? I’m at a loss of words for that one because I clearly don’t get it.

Even though I probably have five or more chapsticks, I ended up going out and buying some more. I even got a new one that is medicated and is suppose to work better.

But still…how did I get chapped lips in the first place if I was using chapstick non-stop….not cool.

Ebay is addicting!!!

I’ve been neglecting ALL of my blogs for the past week. I haven’t really made my usually updates according to my blogging schedule. But hey…I’m only human and have only so many hours in a day.

The majority of my time has been spent on Ebay. Seriously…someone has to pull me away from that NOW!! I’m bidding on so many friggin things that it’s getting to the point where I’m really scrolling down the page to see all the auctions I’m participating in. I’m really blowing all the money I have to waste on items from Ebay. I’m not even getting things as Christmas gifts and that’s what I need the money for!!

Arrgghh…I think once these million bids are over, I will stop going to the site. It’s getting way too addicting and I really need to save my money especially with taxes coming up really soon!

Are you addicted to Ebay?? Then you might want to read this article I just found. Don’t forget to take the quiz too!! I answered yes for too many of those questions. *sigh*

How much will you spend?

I was reading an article from the Toronto Star where it says that most Canadians will spend over $700 for gifts this holiday season. What a huge number that is! But when you start thinking about electronics, the majority of them are over $100 each, so I can see where that number comes from.

The article also says that over 70% of those surveyed will be getting their holiday gifts at Walmart. I guess I’m included there. A little more than half the gifts I got were indeed from Walmart. The rest was from shopping online at Ebay.ca and from my favourite store Futureshop.ca.

I have just been thinking about the amount I have spent so far. Let me calculate and give a rough estimate. I have estimated that I will be spending around $450 this holiday season. That’s not bad at all. Most of that money is from money I made online in which I say thanks to those companies I work with. It’s great having that extra cash to spend especially during the holiday season.

So how much have you estimated you’ll be spending this Christmas?

Hey sugga sugga

I went on a little sugar rush this past week and splurged on two containers of sweets. What did I get?? Delicious sour keys and gummy bears. I even took some photos which are below.

I blame Walmart for having them by the checkout. Damn…they called my name as I was waiting in line the other day. LOL! I better stay away from Walmart for a little while because I always end up buying things!! Eek.

Going Christmas Shopping

I’m planning to go Christmas shopping later in the evening. I have a few more gifts to buy people in my family. I’m trying to focus on getting something for my parents, dog, and one of my sisters. Then I got some other gifts to get which will come soon.

I hate going shopping during the Christmas season. It’s just way too busy for me. No matter where you turn, you end up bumping into someone. Plus, half the stuff you want isn’t even available. I can’t wait until the holiday season is over.

There’s only one day I’m really looking forward to and that is Boxng Day. Even though the stores will be really crowded on that day, I’ll be happy because everything is on sale. LOL!

Got some xmas shopping done!

Yes…I DID! I DID! I’m happy I got a few gifts out of the way now. I have a couple more things to buy for my sisters and then they are done. Then I have to get something for my parents and my sisters boyfriends. But…the good news is that I’m done shopping for my nephew. I got a few cute things for him. I got him two outfits, 4 books, and a cute Winnie the Pooh hat and mittens. See the photos below.
