Well I hope you're alive and well today... and not on fire, underwater, buried in rocks, lost in smoke, or sinking in volcanic lava... and, I truly hope I didn't only work on this post during the last night of my life... that would be tragic!
Josh and I finished our Christmas shopping early this year!
Three whole days ago. That's called accomplishment in our book.
It feels so, so good to be on top of things for a change. Only thing left to do is wrap, but that can wait... gotta squeeze in a little procrastination somewhere, right?
We seem to go a little overboard during the holidays, maybe spending too much and going Christmas crazy... apparently we almost "outdid Santa," as my sister put it. I don't know what it is, but when we have the money to spend, we want to buy ALL the things!!! We can't help it. We both feel the Christmas spirit most when doing something nice for our loved ones, and we don't have many people to buy for, so ya know, why the hell not? I like being the baller auntie with off the chain gifts :)
So in the spirit of gift giving, my sponsors and friends put together one hell of a giveaway this month! There's EIGHT fab prizes totaling an estimated value of $175 - whoa! Check out the goods, show these giving ladies some love, and don't forget to pay attention to those discount codes!
