shopping spree

i've done lots of shopping in the last few hours. after a couple of wonderful days filled with giving and receiving, i opted not to join the droves of people who are taking it all back today...one trip into the sheer madness of christmas eve was enough to convince me to stay home until tomorrow.

in the meantime, i've decided it's time for a wardrobe change for the blog. i've been thinking about it for a couple of months, but i just haven't had the energy (or the spare time) to make it happen...until now!

after clicking through lots (and lots) of options, i've settled on and ordered new papers, new flowers, and new fonts! the sweet lady i buy from lives in australia, and she should be waking up soon...which means she'll be able to email the new goodies to me.

which means i can stop clicking on my yahoo inbox every five minutes...

here's a peek at some of what was on today's shopping list:

i am admittedly not the most patient person in the world when it comes to waiting for things i really want, so now i'm off to find something to keep me occupied for the rest of the afternoon.

on that note, i just checked out some of my blog analytics because they always make me smile. the current most searched terms that bring people here are: whipping stick, the better snow man, ostrich in a pear tree, and tripping at church. this is fascinating to me, and i just thought i'd share a little useless information with you on this lovely wednesday...

i hope you had a wonderful holiday with your family and friends, and i hope you're getting some time off to relax and enjoy the things that make you the happiest!

peace...
