As usual, I am stealing Jen’s Sunday Sentiments button and idea and making it mine tonight. I’ve “known” Jen for umm, 10 years (and yet we’ve never met), and she knows I do it, so it’s not exactly stealing. But then again, it’s not a link up either ;).
~It’s possible that today was the most perfect day here in MI. Perfectly sunny but with that hint of fall chill in the air. Pumpkin candles lit, football on tv, ahhh, loved it all. And I got to sleep in! I stayed up way too late Saturday night and I was tired. B on the other hand had been gone all day yesterday (seriously he had to leave at 3am) running the Iron Warrior Dash (since when is 15.4 miles a “dash”) and was in bed by 7am. So he took the boys out to Tim Hortons for breakfast and the furries and I slept. It.was.amazing.
~OMG so not only is Breaking Bad on tonight, but so are the Emmy’s! I will watch the Emmy’s tonight and Breaking Bad tomorrow so don’t spoil it for me. I’m a huge NPH fan (I’d put him on my “list” but yeah he wouldn’t be down for that) and of course, seeing everyone’s dresses. As for Breaking Bad, why am I still on Team Walt? I’d love nothing more than to se the show end with his cancer cured and him, Skyler, Walt Jr. and Holly, sitting on a beach somewhere with a pile of money. Heck maybe Marie and Jessie could even be there and somehow fall in love. Clearly I live in a fantasy world cuz this ain’t happening. But I do know that B better get his butt home from school early tomorrow so we can watch together. Otherwise, dude, you’re on your own. I can’t wait.
~So my thredUP bag (which they received on 8.28.13) is now showing as “Processing Payout” in my account and I am so stinkin anxious to see my payout amount. Will I get $0.90 like some people have gotten for their bag? $20? $80? Who knows. I don’t even know what I sent in (obviously I’m not missing any of that in my closet) so it’s a complete mystery!
~In case you missed it, my PopSugar Fall Style Box finally appeared yesterday! I have been having such a good time stalking Instagram (#popsugar) and MUT checking out everyone’s bag variations. If you got this box, which one did you get? Send me a picture! And if you want to trade with someone, feel free to leave a comment with a link to the picture of your bad and hopefully everyone can end up with a bag they love!
~I have also been busy trading for items from various subscription boxes that I have been loving lately to save for Christmas gifts. Tops on my list are the Citrus Lane Hape Blocks & Cars, the PopSugar Barr Diffuser and a few items from the Fall Style Box. I’m going to put together some killer gifts (on the cheap) this year and am also hiding some stuff away for some holiday giveaways I am planning ;). Have you started shopping yet?
~I’ve got some blog stuff to work on tonight so there won’t be a newsletter (again) this week, BUT I swear there will be one next week. I swear. And you know what? I’ll even do a giveaway of some sort in next weeks newsletter! Anything I’ve received lately that you’re dying to try? OHHH, and don’t forgot to enter my Fall Favorites Giveaway if you haven’t already! Only a few days left!
That’s it from here. What’s on your mind tonight? Are you as excited about tonight’s tv schedule as much as I am?
Where do you list your swap items? I have the Barr diffuser for trade & I love the silver earrings that you posted a pic of the other day!
I’ve already started getting the boys their Christmas presents. I only have 2 presents so far but its a start! If I can get a great deal on something I might as well get it and save it for Christmas.
I won’t be watching Breaking Bad for 2 weeks! Ahhh! I’m waiting for Kyle to get back so we can finish the season together.
WOW some people are getting $.90 payouts? Do they know what they sent in? I mean that is crazy but are they following the rules and sending in decent stuff? I can’t wait to see what you get back this time. I just pulled up my twice account and it still says awaiting my bag. I sent it last Monday so hopefully I’ll see something this week since theirs says 1-2 weeks.
You know I’ve got my stash going on with my extra goodies. Some I really like but just won’t use soon enough so in the stash it goes. I need to work on my list so I don’t go out and then buy something for the people I’m holding gifts for. My boys are going to have some great things thanks to CL. I’ve been giving them maybe a little something out of the box and putting the other goodie away. Lots of goodness in there.
I use to start my Xmas shopping in July but when my daughter was little. She is now 19 and money works best with a few small wrapped items.
I started my Xmas shopping last month and already have my coworkers done for my primary job. Extended family are taken care of too. My toughest gifts to buy are for my little boy cousins aged 4-9 (there are four). I have no clue what to buy little boys!!
I have started Christmas shopping for the kids, when I find something cute for cheap I grab it. I also have a collection of items from boxes that just aren’t my thing (aka the tea from July pop sugar). This year my in laws want to do a “regifted christmas” where you wrap up things you got but have never used and everyone gets to pick one package, so I’ll have a decent collection of goodies from boxes for that.
Where do you swap Citrus Lane items? I use makeup talk for my cosmetic/popsugar trades but I haven’t been able to find anywhere to trade for Citrus Lane!
