Lately I have been convincing myself not to buy anything all day every day. This has lasted 3 days, today that was broken. I spent quite a bit of money on buying Christmas presents for everyone last week (may have gotten a few for myself too) and now when I look at my credit card statement, I feel the pain… Don’t worry though everyone, I have money to cover my statement this month. 

Today I was on the website, Yeardsellr, a website that I tell myself is not worth it because you pay the site itself a few bucks each time you place an order, how’s that fair to the buyer? Anyway, they do this thing to reel you in called giving you “photons” which are like their currency that spend the same as cash. Cool idea, no clue why it’s called photons. I saw something that I have wanted for a VERY long time, a French Coffee Press by Bodum. I wasn’t crazy about the color, it’s red, but I got it anyway because I had like $8 in photons. It is brand new, and I bet it makes some wonderful coffee, that is to be determined…

So recently I took a short road trip with some of my best friends, Dezzy and Brittany. We decided to spend the day in a town about an hour and a half away from where we live, just to get away for the day and have fun. We went to Panera Bread for breakfast, then we went shopping, then finally we topped the day off with an amazing meal at Olive Garden! While shopping we went to Barns & Nobles and met an author of a book titled The Strange Case Of Origami Yoda. He asked us to make little green origami Yoda figures with him, and we did. Before we left he asked if he could get a picture of us for his blog, and of course we agreed to that! He took a picture of us on his iPad and when I got home I found out we were already on the blog! I took a screen shot of it, in case I ever need proof that something that cool actually happened to me. The whole trip was a much needed experience and we all had a ton of fun!
