Christmas

Well, I'm officially done Christmas shopping... now I'm just waiting for one more thing to actually get here. Welder Guy's got a few surprises coming... I'll share what they are in a later post, just so nothing accidentally gets out before I'm ready for it to. I ordered him two things on Monday and one has come today and the other is still in Oklahoma. lol. I'm heading to his parents house in just a bit to make sure that I don't need to buy more things to make the one present useful to him. I want to make sure it has everything he'll need for it so we're not shopping around later on.

I got my Christmas present today. Welder Guy wasn't even about to let me be surprised. I even ordered it myself, used our joint account (my card) to pay for it, and I ordered other stuff with it. I got a nice wool dress coat (my present), but I also ordered leggings and a dress. It's not really dress weather, but I can't pass up a good deal on a dress knowing I'm not really changing sizes anymore (like a kid). The leggings aren't quite what I expected but they will definitely work. I bought them so I can wear dresses in the fall, but they go down to my ankles (I should have expected this as I'm short and capris are ankle length). I'll just have my mom hem them so they are mid-calf. She's crafty like that.

I also have an order from one of my best friends in high school coming. She's a "Scentsy" rep, and they sell wick-less candles and warmers. I found a warmer that I'm absolutely in love with. It's a damask pattern and it's black and white. I also ordered three different scents to go in it. If I find that my "tarts" from Bed Bath and Beyond work in it, I'll just buy them there and save myself the shipping cost. They have about 50 scents there too. And they are CHEAP! Ahhh! I'm excited just thinking about it.

I also ordered two magazine subscriptions for $5 a piece. Cosmo and Fine Living. I figured for $5 a magazine at the grocery store, $5 for a year's worth was worth my time and money. Speaking of, I need to call Publishers Clearing House. They started sending me a subscription to Cosmo and now they want $22. Last month, it was $12 they wanted, and I called them to tell them I never ordered it and to cancel it, and they said fine but then I got a past due bill. I'm not sure if it was sent before everything was final or not, so I'll call them just to make sure. Ok, well, I'm at Starbucks and I'm getting tired of typing so I'm going to cut this short! Talk to you all soon!
