New glass frames for my eyes 🦋👗❤️
 

Glow in the dark glasses and bracelets for trick-or-treaters.

Christmas presents for the grandchildren. They are completely done. So are my daughter and my son-in-law. Half of my husbands Christmas is done oh boy!

I’ve been buying (in advance) a lot house housecleaning products and toilet paper and beefing up my supplies for things that will be way too expensive to buy once the dictator takes over our country. I won’t support paying huge prices for things I need after the first of the year. Hopefully I have enough of everything to last a few years. :|

I've been stocking up too, mainly on things that go on sale this time of year, like Campbell's cream-of-something soups. I got them for 79 cents a can! They're usually $1.99 or $2.19. I use them to cook with a lot.

I Bought...
 

A pack of 3 luggage locks
Small slim card holder in a deep chocolate brown
Band-aid adhesive bandages in assorted sizes
Oil of oregano capsules

-some Batman Hot Wheels (a gift)
- a gold chain for a pendant I already have
- a bonsai tree kit (a white elephant gift)
- a science ABCs book (a gift)
- groceries

I’m buying four good sized shelves for my new kitchen. I had been looking at paying a small fortune for something to use for storage in this certain space, but the universe (ie: Facebook marketplace) has provided them for a mere $10.
I’m also getting a free crib mattress. They make the best dog beds. You can wipe them down and everything.

Always storage
 

I bought a linen cabinet that I hope matches the furniture in the area intended. I needed a specific size, so limited options. But can't wait until delivery, at least it's assembled so I won't have to deal with the door hinges... certainly not a fav task of mine.

Very pretty a white and turquoise shade of art deco bedroom set. Fell in love with it the moment I saw it on marketplace.
A kitchen pantry To store on my canning jars and supplies
Metal shelving units for the basement. I’m creating an indoor grow room to start seedlings very late in the winter to transfer them out to the Greenhouse early spring. Eventually, it will grow vegetables all winter long for us

Some black tshirts for me. Blue ones for my bro for xmas and a boomerang ball for the little one for xmas. Not much so far but I procrastinate on making a list and deciding.

Several gifts, some for others and some for me :)

- a blue sweater (me)
- another longer gold chain to go with the pendant (me)
- herbal cure (me)
- a fancy heating pad and a weighted, lavender eye pillow (gift)
- some gourmet goodies (grade A maple syrup, chili crisp, hot cocoa mix) (gift basket)
- a stuffed white elephant plushie (I'm going to put it in the white elephant gift pile, and it will be a joke when someone opens it - then I'm going to give them their real present, which will be in a tote on the floor at my feet. I know it's been done before, but not with this group. Also, they can give the plushie to my 2-year-old nephew if they want - or they can keep it.)

I forgot a gift, and it was probably the most fun one for me to buy; I designed a t-shirt for the boy at Zazzle. It says "heteroflexible" across the front, the term he prefers to "bisexual", and it has a bisexual symbol over the pocket. It turned out really cute, if I do say so myself!

- foam outside faucet covers
- storage containers for leftovers
- a UGA college football jersey (gift for the boy)

I love shopping at this time of year! (now that there's the internet - I don't miss going to the stores at this time of year at all.)

Light up crocs for my youngest nephew who loves everything crocs. I also got some croc accessories: Pins for them, and little snow plows you can attach to the front and a head lamp that you can attach to the top. So he can scoot around in his driveway and plow snow with his crocs.

Also: A shirt for my elder nephew that says "Don't startle me, I fart easily"

I love bathing with goat's milk soap! It leaves my skin feeling wonderful.

What Did you Buy Today?
 

ty things like chocolates "Merci" mix. New gloves, new kitchen towels, new BR towels for hands, load of things for the little one (not candy), ty dinner cards for my best neighbours in the world, other ty cards and Xmas cards. Money for three of the young ones. (they run errands). Groceries and crackers (veggie and swiss) Chips and dip for anyone who pops in with crackers and cheese. Lots of ice tea, bought a case of Pepsi. No alcohol here lol unless they bring their own. Most would find me boring thats ok. No smoking and no drugs. Tea coffee or water flows here .....

I didn't know they do a Frankincense and Myrrh laundry soap! I need to get that. I keep their air freshener in my office at work. Thanks for the tip!

A WoodWick candle for someone I just found out is going to drop by on Christmas Eve.

Two baby blankets and a crib sheet for something called a "baby sprinkle". My niece is having her second child. I thought you only had showers for the first baby, and then handed those things down to the next baby. I guess some things got worn out though, and the first baby is only 2 and a half. He probably still uses some things, like his baby blanket and car seat. Anyway, that is taken care of.

This is not technically something I bought today - I bought it a few weeks ago. All the candy stocking stuffers I bought for the boy were in a bag under my bed - and now I'm pretty sure I threw them out in yesterday's trash. :| So I guess I will be buying candy stocking stuffers again when I order groceries. I hope they still have the fun Santa and Christmas shapes in stock.

I did buy some new hangers today, though. They are curved instead of having that funky hanger shape. They are supposed to be for sweaters and suits. My sweaters always get those weird scrunches in the shoulders. Hopefully these will work.

I bought one of these last month and LOVE. Mine breaks down to also be a dust buster size for doing stairs and such. Congratulations on your new life hack!

Better tires for my car: I even got a rebate on all four tires which made buying them more affordable than last time I bought tires three years ago. ツ

$200 of meds for my poor, sick little pup. She's been through so much.

Christmas odds and ends, and a new pair of shoes. The are blue with square capped toes and chunky low heels - very fashionable. And on sale!

- a bottle of Jack Daniels Single Barrel Proof (a gift)
- I ordered earlier but they came today: Disney Stitch and Nightmare Before Christmas sleep pants (also a gift)
- groceries, but nothing exciting, just the usual

Thank you for all the well wishes and compassion. As soon as she gets enough meds in her system, she'll be feeling better. This MRSA infection is no joke.

Stocking stuffers:
- a hamburger press
- a thumb drive
- a 10-foot phone charging cable

and a couple more small gifts from "Santa":
- Crayola magic markers
- a Disney coloring book

Oh, that's the very best way to season with nutmeg! There's just no comparison between the jarred stuff and grating your own.

- loads of wrapping paper, because my stash is totally out
- Mtn Dew for the caffeine boost and sugar rush

After-Christmas sale stuff:

- a red sweater and a French blue sweater and a cream sweater, V-necks
- a gray cardigan with tiny white polka dots
- underwear
- a red wool coat
- red booties
- two pairs of pants, one black and one charcoal gray, wide-legged
