Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in life as a wife, mom, daughter, sister, and friend.....Hope you enjoy your time with me!

The Clock is Ticking

The Clock is Ticking

Last year at this time I found myself sitting in a hospital room with my mother daily.  I am not complaining about this by any means and Lord knows I wish she was still here!  But, my point is, the clock was ticking on days left to shop, and I was in a hospital room.  This is when AMAZON became my best friend for anything and everything!  I know this is hard for some people as they fear Amazon is taking over the world, but trust me, when your mom is dying and you have three kids at home, 18 nieces and nephews, teachers, and in laws, and the list could on and on....you start to get creative on gifts!  Amazon became my go to for gifts and groceries! They saved my life last year and for this I will be forever grateful!  

This year I am not sitting in a hospital room, but oddly enough I find myself in the same boat and I am having to get creative.  So this post is all about what I am ordering today.  It includes ideas for stocking stuffers, gifts,  hostess gifts, and even some household items.  One thing:  DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID!  ALWAYS CHECK THE SHIPPING DATE.  TRUST ME ON THIS!  IT MIGHT NOT MAKE IT IF YOU MAKE THAT MISTAKE!  

TODAYS CART WILL INCLUDE:

These leggings are AMAZING!  I wear them to dance, I wear them around town, I wear them everywhere!  And they fit so good and they look amazing.  They come longer because the Yogi's in our lives like to cover their feet and I like this because it brings extra warmth around my ankles which is a plus for me!   Santa does not know it yet, but he is bringing me one or two more pairs!  Gotta love that guy! 

This Shirt!  Oh my yall!  I got this for myself and it is one of my favorites!  It fits amazing and it is great with jeans or with my leggings!  Especially the ones above!  I have this shirt in grey and I wear a medium, but I assure you Santa will be bringing me a few other colors this Christmas because EVERY time I wear it someone comments on how great it is!  

For the Cooks in your life this cookbook is GREAT!  Especially for families!  I use it on average once a week!  And we pretty much love everything from it!  This is a great gift for any female in your life from a teacher to your mother to your boss!  The same author also has a slow cooker cookbook I just got in the mail and I just made my first dish from it as well!  LOVED it too!  See below!  Perfect gift for busy moms in your life!

My big boys will be finding these in their stockings!  They are GREAT and the teenagers can always use another headset!  Trust me on this!

These are fun for little girls to get in their stockings!  It is a bath bomb with a treat!  My nieces loved them last year!

Bath bombs for the boys too with toys!  GREAT stocking stuffer!  Especially for a little minion named Graeme!

Candles are always a good go to gift!  For a hostess, for a friend, for a sister, or for yourself!  I love how clean this one smells!

Anyone who really knows me knows I LOVE MY DARK CHOCOLATE SEA SALT CARAMELS.  I am kind of a snob about it actually!  Up until I found these I only liked Central Markets in their bulk section.  This is now my go to for a hostess gift or an extra little something to add to any chocolate lovers gift.  These things are the bomb!  I may or may not have one or two every night!  Just saying......they are that good!!!!!  I have even started leaving a canister of these by the bedside of our guest!  They love it!

Really not sure what all the rage is about on this, but Graeme loves these things so this year he might get a shiny one in his stocking.....:)

 

Yet another fascination I do not understand, but it will be in a stocking I assure you!  Probably JP's!

And I can't leave my Will out so he will probably get this one!

Came across this while looking for the bath bombs and got this for Graeme.  He loves all the "Surprise" stuff!  Not sure I do, but hey!  It makes him happy!

This is perfect for Trey's stocking!  He loves coupon books of love and things like this.  

So there you have it!  That is what will be in my Amazon cart today along with toilet paper and paper towels!  What will be in your Amazon Cart?

Happy Shopping!
