Going to school .. definitely made my kid a lot more understanding. She learned a lot of things.. and this is her first gift to me.. this Christmas. Although, she bought it with our money and all.. but it was very thoughtful what she chose. For me a necklace and a card of her handprint and photo. For her papa, she had a touque and a glove. It was heartwarming for sure.

The Wii remains the most sought after gaming system once again this year, even though it had been launched 3 Christmases ago to date. The Nintendo Wii was sold out a month ago even though some folks from this town were crazy enough to queue up outside the local mall for it as early as 6.30am. 2 weeks before Christmas we had walk-ins, calls and many inquiries as to how they can get a Wii, since Walmart and even Amazon were sold out. Some customer had tried eBay but most of the sellers were trying to cash in on the demand for it, but in my opinion it’s not worth paying that kind of price.
As much as I hate losing a sale, if we had none in stock there is really nothing we can do and the customers needs are very important, so we direct them to Lightinthebox.com because they have a large inventory of Nintendo Wii consoles. Starting at US$35.99 with 10 Free Games and a 26 in 1 Sports pack, even Walmart can’t beat that. For all your electronic needs, games and any other gadgets, check this site out first – good things must be shared, right? So if you are still looking for one or know of someone who is, spread the word.

Love my own present to myself. It isn’t anything expensive.. but i had wanted one for a long time. The first one i bought i had given it to the man’s mother.. because it was with owls.. and i know she loves owls. But these days.. i try to take care of myself first.. but i’m not always successful.. as you can see. A small and personal gift to treat myself.. once in a while is a good thing eh.

What a day..!!! it was horrid..!! that’s all i can say for now. I never want to ever have another go on this kinda weather. It is not only scary.. !! boy..!!! we could have lost our lives.. from the cold because power was gone.. and all. It was the longest few hours .. before we headed to a friend’s house to get some heat. A wood stove is the way to go .. i guess next year for our spring project. But once we put in the stove .. i’m sure we will never get another storm.. given our luck.

Etsy is a life – saver. Not only did i get something for myself i liked for Christmas.. but ialso gifts for my friends and family. It’s an awesome way to get something personal for them.. and at least i was on time this time.

The lil’ lunch bag was what we bought from the kid’s school for a fund raising thing. A week ago, we received another one .. which said it was back ordered. We promptly returned it to the school.. because it doesn’t belong to us.. and ours had arrived. Honesty is very important to me.. and if i want my kid to be honest.. i have to set an example. For all those cheaters out there.. if you are cheating . .to get a measly few bucks, you know your kids will also grow up and cheat you too. Instilling good morale is darn important.. and it starts with you .. and if you think they don’t know.. man .. are you in for a rough ride in the future.

Made in the store.. by the kid .. a way to keep her busy .. and to thank the customers at our store. She had so much fun.. wished i could share this with my online friends. But having said this.. i feel sad that the kid’s grandparents.. never do anything like that with her before. Sad..!

This is my kid’s first year in school.. and because of some circumstances we may be pulling her outta this school. So the man and I prepared these presents for her classmate.. because she might not be seeing them .. till next September. I hope they will remember my kid then.

A pink dell laptop of the babysitter, very pretty indeed..!! but i would never spend that kinda money on it. I’m pretty el cheapo as you can see. But for others.. they think that i’m being cautious.. which is always good. I am not one to spend money before having it… a really good habit if i must say so myself.
