It's snowing in PDX! It is *extremely* unusual to get snow this early. This evening is going to be a nightmare. On top of the commute, I need to go grocery shopping (it's the stock-up-on-essentials paycheck), but the store will be a zoo.

I was there in late March one year and was very surprised that it snowed. Oh Portland you just want us all drinking coffee and dark beer as refuge from the weather....

I can't wait for it to snow here in Saratoga and I'm incredibly jealous of all the west coasters getting more snow than us. If I have to live where it's freezing, I expect snow, darn it! On a side note: I miss California. Where you can wear flip flops in December.

I did in ABQ until about Nov. Then I got too cold. I'd go barefoot all the time if I could. Flip Flops are the next best thing.

Same here, I wear flip flops all the time if I can't be barefoot. My husband doesn't understand it but I was raised that way. My mom and grandma were forever barefoot so I just went with it.

My husband wears flip flops in December, well, all year actually, even in the snow!

You're lucky your husband will even wear them. Mine only considers them "shower shoes" and won't wear them unless he had to shower on the ship.
 
@usofjessamerica The colors were so pretty but I dunno!  Maybe there's something wrong with me, I can't get those two to work! (eyeliner and lip)

My secret santa nails package is ready to go out... now. Got the box packaged up and sealed. Letters wrote.. done! I think I'll take the package to the PO in the afternoon. I may even look into buying the postage online to get tracking for free and the little discount they offer.

I added some bows and candy canes to the inside of the package. On the outside I just put holiday stickers ... lol



The black thing on the left is my stiletto heel tape dispenser and the silver thing on the right are my scissors ... hahaha



Laptop not included.

On the To/From stickers I am going to put my name, her name, and the number present to open when. I was hoping to do the 12 days of Christmas... a gift per day.. but I figured that if she didn't want to .. she could go ahead and open them all at once. I put a card on the top and then our family Christmas card on the bottom. It's a picture of us with my cats ... lol and I put lots of samples in too.

This has been so fun. I love spoiling others and hope my santee's love their things.
Great job on the  wrapping.

 
@usofjessamerica The lip and eyeliner palettes from the Lorac Chocolate Bar set!  (I totally know that's not what it's called.. sweet temptations?)  I crashed before I got your response last night!  Whooops....
 
Ooh!! Sorry! I just looked at swatches. Those don't look too stellar from the few blogs I looked at :/

Ha, it is getting up to 74 degrees here in Georgia and I am super excited. Flip flops are coming out today!

  I can't wait to see which one of you ladies I am lucky enough to have as a Secret Santa.  Of course, maybe it is none of you and it is a lady that doesn't post much, and that is great too!
I cant wait to find out either.

Yeah- they definitely get pushed to the bottom of the pile!  Oh well!  The shadows are nice!

Girl, I hear ya!  If I don't hide them, my hubby eats everything I buy to put in my kids' packed lunches.  And yep, I buy him plenty of things to eat too.  But I never figure out that the kids' items are missing until I'm trying to pack lunches at 6:30 AM and I can't find the string cheese/lentil chips/crackers/GoGo Squeez(es), etc.  

Of course, I'm only preparing for the day, about a decade in the future, when I have my husband AND two teenage boys.  I have the feeling that I'll bring home groceries, set them in the kitchen, and watch as a life-size game of Hungry Hungry Hippos takes place.

My aunt had six boys, so yes, that is what it will be like.
I just found this on Pinterest!  I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe!!!



....and I'm totally using this idea from now on.

OK SOMEONE PLEASE TAKE THE COMPUTER AWAY FROM ME!

My husband would kill me if he weren't horribly enabling and loved spoiling me.
Where are you shopping? I want to be enabled also lol...

 
Overstock, everyone forgets about overstock lol. I forgot about it until Hubby got a free year's club O membership as a veteran so free shipping and 5% back YAY. You have to dig but they've got some awesome deals.

You're right, I absolutely forget about Overstock. I go there when I need things for home but never think of looking there for beauty products.  Thanks for giving me a new place to shop!
