NaBloPoMo 2024: Day 18

This is what Canva AI makes when prompted “Sad Christmas Tree Falling Needles”

It’s time to start thinking about Christmas shopping! With Thanksgiving so late, I feel like December will go by in a blink. Black Friday sales are coming and/or already here! My moisturizer is on sale 25%, so I bought two thereby negating savings?! But seriously, since I started using it, I’ve been told how young I look multiple times which hadn’t happened in awhile. I will say, I also started almost daily (missed three days, but making up the time) 30 minutes yoga classes. So, maybe that is giving me an ethereal, zen-like glow?

By the way, did you see how I mentioned Christmas sales and immediately followed with a moisturizer for me. I am the worst! Or rather, the total best at buying presents for myself. It’s buying presents for other people that is challenging. Even then, it’s not really the shopping per se but all the arrangements like wrapping and sending. I think I could track weeks going by when another Sunday comes and I still haven’t gone to the post office. Or the dry cleaners, come to think of it.

But this year! Maybe this is the year where I buy presents and send cards. I could work on it this weekend. Or never! Either is possible.

  1. Well, now I need to know what your moisturizer is! I generally use Lancome and they have a big sale right now so I’m considering. Do you have another idea for me? Oh, yeah, gifts too.

    1. Skin Fix! And it’s 25% off right now. I’ve been very impressed. My husband says it smells weird, but I don’t smell anything and I usually have a sensitive nose. The hand repair cream/Eczema+ is the best I’ve ever used.

  2. Ha, I was going to ask the same thing… you cannot tell us about THE BEST moisturizer and not tell us which one it is! LOL

  3. I am discussing to buy myself some hair vitamins as they are on sale but I still half some and I am not taking them regularly…

    I hate making presents for other people. I never have good ideas when I have to have ideas.
