November 1: Totally stressed out all week due to having to deal with life today, it was relatively painless this year.
Put together a wish for a book to read:
I got this in one of my Once Upon a Bookclub boxes, I didn't find it that great.Put together a wish for a book to read:
A wish for happy mail:
Found a Grant a Wish tag from Amazon:
I've been wanting to try color by number, but I don't want anything too hard, I feel this one will be fine.
And I put together a wish for something fox:
I had those cards in mind when I decided to send this wish. I knew I had washi and a few die cuts and sticky notes as well, so put those in, too.
November 2: Due to the stress of the day before (and maybe the rest of the week), I went shopping. I was planning to see if there was any Halloween stuff left and hoping there would be Christmas out, so I wouldn't have to shop later.
Saw this nice Galaxie on my walk down to shopping:
First up, was Target:
Halloween was mostly just costumes, and a few bits of candy. Christmas was barely out, they had some stuff, but will be stocking more. I'm not sure if I'll go back (probably, who are we kidding?)
I found a good amount of ornaments, anyway. I love their ornaments are mostly $3. A couple teal deer (3), pink gnome (3), yellow sloth (3), Trolls mystery ornament (4), bee (3), four monsters (3 each), guinea pig (1) and another sloth (1).I had to get the monsters, I'm loving monsters, yetis and gnomes, and of course sloths and all the stuff. I can't believe they had a guinea pig, though guinea pigs don't have tails. The bee is embroidered with beads.
yeti socks (1), fuzzy socks (1), Troll lip balm (1), Reese's Take 5 (3.4), four Cosmic Candy hatchimals (3 each).
I've been asking for fuzzy socks and the CC hatchimals in wishes in my groups, but no one's been delivering, so I guess I just have to get them myself. I'm not sure I want to go back for more Christmas, I spent $30 on ornaments, just here. Not sure I need to go back when they're fully stocked.
Next up was Walmart, I learned they were remodeling the store, not much was where it was supposed to be. I found a few things, Minions throw (10), camper ornaments (2), faux wood ornaments (2), Hershey's cookies in chocolate bar (1.5), Rice Krispie treats (1.3). I love Walmart's $2 ornament section about as much as I love Target's $3 section. Plus a lot of the time they have these multiple sets for $2. I was so excited to find the Minions throw, I'm always on the lookout for a Minions blanket and bedding set.
gnomes (2), llama (2), gnome (2), reindeer (2), tree (2.5), gnome (2), hat full of snowballs (2), easels (2).
Here I spent about $21 on Christmas ornaments.
What was supposed to be last was Dollar Tree:
stickers, planner stickers, Christmas stocking, Christmas hat, tiny stuffed animals.
I picked up the stocking in case I had a stocking swap, I'm thinking I've signed up for all the Christmas swaps I'm going to, but just in case. Again, I couldn't pass up the Minions, and the animals were just too cute.
Flipz, pads, loofah, socks, glue sticks, Hershey's pretzel bites.
Again with the socks, I had to get the glue sticks because the Antiquarian sticker book I picked up a few weeks has issues with stickiness. I admit I wouldn't have bought this if I knew they weren't really sticky and if I knew they had the border around them, it's so disappointing when people raved about how great they were.
Lastly, became Hobby Lobby:
Some tape refills.
I was going to Target for Christmas and the hatchimals, Walmart for tape and Christmas, Dollar Tree for a few essentials. Walmart didn't have my tape, which might have been ok. These refills I got from Hobby Lobby are $10 each, they come with 8 refills. At Walmart the new packages of 4 with the dispensers are $7 each. So, still cheaper at Hobby Lobby, I go through them so fast, maybe I should just go this route in the future. I feel I tried once, but Hobby Lobby was out.
I put together a Hello Kitty happy mail.
A Dollar Tree tag:
I received a couple items in the mail. A Winner Takes All of stickers:
A very nice selection.
And a RAK of happy mail:
I really like that gnome and the cupcake stickers.
And my friend dropped off a Halloween gift for me.It had a lot of glitter fallout, so I put some mod podge on it, it was a matte finish, so the body is not as sparkly.
Tuesday, I put together a wish for Christmas die cuts:
A wish for sequins mixes:
A wish for stationery:
And a wish for project life cards:
I received 5 things that day. My last cabochon purchase:
I really like these, plus I got that little avocado I LOVE. I really liked the good items as well.
A wish for happy mail:
very cute selection.
A Winner Takes All of address labels:
She had signed up for happy mail, I realize this is happy mail, but I guess I was expecting something else.

Another wish for happy mail:
These are really cute epoxy stickers, plus I love the bag.
And lastly, a Send Me Something spiky:
Very cute, I'm just not sure what I'll do with them.
Work was slow, no line at the polls.
Wednesday: another slow day at work. I put together a wish for something Alice in Wonderland:
A mashup tag:
We had to send something Hello Kitty (stickers and sticky notes), glitter (stickers), pink (stickers, embossed paper, postcard), and something handmade (card).
I made an ATC:
I received 3 things in the mail. An H tag:
I could really use hand lotion right now.
