Lots of Tsum Tsums

Thursday: I planned to go south shopping, but when I got up it was grey and raining, so I popped a movie in and left after it ended. It was still grey and raining, but the world told me it was in the 40's, so I chanced it. I was a bit chilly on the way down, but I got some good music on my mp3 player. 

First stop was Target, I had to return a pair of leggings that were too tight and a pair of shorts that was too short. I had planned to pick up a larger size of leggings, but decided that since it's getting warmer, I won't need more leggings, but I will need the shorts to wear under my skirts. I did not find any.

What I did find: 

 Reese's ($1.50), antacids ($2 each), tiny plant ($1), water bottle ($6).
I couldn't believe this package was only $1.50, I've been wanting some lately, I was going to splurge and buy some Reese's eggs Wednesday at the grocery store, but they were out. I needed antacids, the Target brand are pretty good, so I picked them up. Loved this tiny faux plant. I've been trying to drink more water at work and my co-worker said these kind of bottles are really good, but I haven't wanted to spend so much money on them, this one was on sale, and pretty cute.

 Tsum Tsum squishy ($3), Tsum Tsum blind bags ($1.50 each, 6 total), Hatchimal ($3), Microzoo ($3), squishy ($3). I've been wanting some more blind bags lately, they make a bad day nice if you open one at the end. I did open the Tsum Tsum squishy, it was Sadness from Inside out. I knew it was blue before I opened it which meant it could be Joy or Stitch or Sadness. Sadness is my favorite.
Next stop was Walmart, had another pair of leggings to return there.

 I did not find any leggings, but I did find a pair of shorts ($10) that will work and a new bra ($2). And of course some tape ($6 each). I recently found my actual bra size, now I want to just buy a bunch of them. And I always need tape, I think I'll be ok for awhile.

 stuffed avocado ($3), Mickey squishy ($3), French Fry sticky notes ($0.50), Care Bears mash 'ems ($1.50), Easter magic towel ($1), donut sticky notes ($0.50) and some kitty hair clips ($2). I have no reasons for the avocado, Mickey, sticky notes, or hair clips, except that they were cheap and cute. I picked up the magic towel for a swap.
Last stop was Dollar Tree, I wasn't going to go, and then remembered there were a couple things I needed.

 canvas bags, sticky notes, foam tape, stickers.
I was in line and I saw these bags, you'd think I'd walk away from those? And the sticky notes/notepad bundles? Not a lot going on in the sticker department today. I needed the foam tape.

 lip gloss, stickers, foam bunnies, loofahs, toothpaste, foam tape, notepad.
I couldn't pass up the lip gloss. I picked up the rainbow bunny stickers and the foam bunnies for swaps. I needed the loofahs and the foam tape and the toothpaste. I just loved the mini clipboards.

foam tape, stickers, mini clipboard, gems, sticky notes.
How cute are those stickers? And the sticky notes/notepad? And the mini clipboard?
My plan was to have a $20 cap, but I figured I was past 20 items by the time I was halfway through, so I gave up. I'm surprised I only spent $24.
I shouldn't need anything for awhile, so I'm not going shopping. I do have a thing with a friend in May where we're going to a rummage sale and hitting some antique stores, and maybe something this weekend (probably not, because I haven't heard back).
If I have an offer to go to Micheal's or Tuesday Morning, I won't say no.

A purple unicorn

Tuesday, I planned to go to the mall and then walk home, but when I got up it was only in the 30's. I think I'm just itching to go for a walk, that I want it to be nicer than it is. I put together some mail.

Wish for flavored green tea:

I'm not a fan of green tea, I've been passing my cast-off's of tea to my friend at work, I might keep them and send them off in my mail groups.
 wish for clear stamps:

This is a set of stamps I got in my Peachy Cheap grab bag, I rarely used stamps anymore.
 Wish for washi destash:

 I do not like thin washi, so I passed these on.
An Easter basket swap:

 Basically a destash swap. 90% of this is stuff I've gotten in other swaps. The brads I got in my Peachy Cheap grab bag as well as the blue pen and the paper, the owl stickers are from Staples, the washi is from Hobby Lobby. Everything else is from swaps, the decorated bag: a favorites swap, the straws: a secret Santa swap, the green bows: a St. Patrick's Swap, the other bows: a Sweet Treats swap, the card kit: a secret sister, and I'm not entirely sure where the others are from. I received some happy mail.
St. Patrick's Day tag:

 We had to send anything green. Not too excited about these.
A RAK:

These are cute, the person who sent them found some Mary Engelbreit cards at a thrift store and I guess she decided to share.
Wednesday brought a 6x6 loaded pocket in the mail:

 I found it much cuter than the one I created.
And a Hollar haul:

 pantiliners ($1), bamboo bath sponge ($2), duct tape ($0.70 each), dryer balls ($2), toffee peanuts ($1.30).
I picked up the bamboo sponge because I was hoping it was more stiff than my loofahs, I feel I need something to scrub off my dead skin lately. I need duct tape and at that price, it's even cheaper than Dollar Tree, it looks like I get about as much as I get at Dollar Tree. I really don't know how long dryer balls are supposed to last, but my laundry seems to be staticy lately when it comes out of the dryer. I love these peanuts.

 unicorn squishmallow ($5), snail doorstop ($1.50), Little Tykes Squeezoos ($3.75), mystery unicorn squishie ($4), whale bath toy ($1), pom pom pals: sloth ($4), bandages ($1).
I've been wanting one of these squishmallows for awhile, sadly it's basically a stuffed animal, I thought it would be more like a squishie, oh well. Just because I'm into snails lately. I also just really like toys, so I picked up the elephant, whale, sloth and mystery unicorn. And I love printed bandages.

metal scene stickers ($1 each), resin flower stickers ($1), decorative tape ($1).
I mean how can you pass up Jolee's stickers for this price? And I need more decorative tape.
They sent me an email the other day about party stickers, I click on something they have more decorative tape and Martha Stewart stickers and more Jolee's stickers for a buck each, I really want to just buy them all, but I'm going to Target and Walmart and possible Dollar Tree tomorrow, so I really shouldn't. Plus I have another Peachy cheap package coming. I really need to stop spending money and just get ready for garage sales. I have to return some things to Target and Walmart, plus I need more double stick tape. I'm going to *try* and not go shopping for the rest of the month after that, not even after Easter shopping. I know I say it all the time, but I need to get my exercise by walking, not shopping.

Snail watering can

Friday, I got this big box in the mail. I was expecting it, I just didn't realize it was going to be so big.

 It was my color swap from one of my groups. We sent each other a bunch of items in their favorite color. My favorite color is green.

 Some green vegetable seeds, green lights, green washi, a green snail watering can, a green mermaid tail pen, a green water bottle, a green frog windchime and some stickers.
I was excited about my large box, but then not so excited when I opened it. I feel this happens a lot for me. I should just be happy I'm getting mail. I'll probably pass the seeds, lights, washi, watering can, water bottle and stickers on to other people. I will be keeping the mermaid tail pen, and the frog (I've already hung it up).
Sunday, was a productive day. I created a flip book:

 A 6x6 paper loaded pocket:

 Put together an Easter tag:

 And created a Large Spring Tag:

 Also, there was laundry and a tour of a local school that was turned into condos, and a quick trip to Kohl's. My mom went with me to the school tour, she had some Kohl's cash to use, so we went there on the way home. I still had part of a gift card from returning clothes at Christmas. I picked up a bra, and found it was the wrong size. I measured this morning and found out I'm in a way bigger size than I realized. I've been wearing these really comfortable (and cheap) bralettes from Walmart, they're kind of like a bandeau top, but I thought I'd see if a bra was more comfortable. After picking up my exchange, we wondered around a bit more.
Found a this cute sloth mug:

 And a unicorn one:

 We went to TJ Maxx next, I found this huge box of nerds, I certainly hope it was packed with small boxes, though it would be fun to have large nerds, too.

 Also, found these meringue giants. They look so good:

 My original plan was to walk home, but then it was kinda windy when we got out of the car at the mall. My mom drove home and I walked to my home from there, I realized on that short walk, it really wasn't that windy out, it must have been because there's not a lot around the mall, just open space.
Found a few packages when I got home.
An Easter Basket swap:

 Basically a destash swap.
A wish for die cuts:

 A Taped up Thursday tag:

 We were to create a piece of art with washi tape. These are so cute!!!
A wish of tea:

 Happy mail:

 A wish of memo sheets:

 A wish for sticker flakes:

 And my Peachy Cheap order, it was for a Spring Cleaning grab bag:

 Sorry about the bad picture, a few close-ups:

 Not sure what I'll do with these.
washi, stamp, markers, letterboard embellishment:

 I'll be passing on the stamp, the really thin washi and the one with the brown patterned, and the blue marker. I figure I can repurpose the letterboard embellishment. I love the cloud and banner washi.
Brads:

 Will be passing on these, though two of the six don't have to be St. Patrick's Day
stencil, bling, brads

 I'm thinking of passing on the brads in my end of the Easter basket swap. I love the bling.
stickers:

 Not quite sure what I'll do with these.
Clear stamps:

 more:

 Will probably pass those along.
brads:

 I like these.

Paper:

 I'm not as excited about this paper pad as I have been in the past paper pads I've gotten. Most of the papers are strange.
Stickers:

 I love these girls. They are stamps and I love the stamped images, I just don't use stamps anymore.
The back side:

 Also cute, thinking about keeping them.
Tags:

 I'll be passing some of these on, and some of them I'll be keeping.
more tags:

 I like these.
charms:

I like these, too.

I love my new bra, it's so comfortable. I wonder if the reason my old bras were not so comfortable is because I was in the wrong size. I've been wearing the bra since I got home, and it feels like I'm not wearing anything, like when I'm wearing my bralettes. I kinda wanna go buy a bunch of bras now.
I kinda want to go back to TJ Maxx tomorrow and pick up some cards I chose not to buy today and maybe I can walk home then. I need to exercise more. I know it shouldn't be just buying things that gets me out, but I don't have a lot of motivation lately, and I figure if this gets me motivated, why not.
