Simple Joys.

Yesterday I went to the store to start my Christmas shopping and although I didn't find any gifts yet I did find all of the pink tree ornaments I was looking for ( shown below) as my 'theme" this year will be pink, silver, & white. I'm now so excited, "gung-ho", all festive and shit I even think I'm going to decorate the tree today because I want to see what it looks like! I'm also happy I got them for such a good price,too; most of them were just 98 cents each! I just loooove a good deal and it's little things like this that bring me the most joy. The simple joys in life. I also found a 2025 Dachshund calender(and they only have 1 wire-haired which is good; I think the wire and long haired are ugly; I just like the short-haired, like Chihuahuas; I only like the short-haired, not the long-haired ones) as well( shown lower down) I'll hang in the kitchen where the current one is and even if I die before I get to use it all everyone else will still be able to so it won't be wasted. I also saw the hanging Christmas evergreen plant I liked for the front veranda as well but it cost 32$ and was just half the size of last year's so I passed, as much as I wanted it as I'm NOT paying 32$ for a puny little thing like that! Maybe somewhere else has them for cheaper?The American election is also this week and I can't believe that out of millions of Americans Trump and Harris are the "best" they could come up with!

I also got this *monster* Toblerone chocolate bar, you know, the really biiiig FAMILY-sized one that's meant to share but me(being a pig!) am just going to eat it all myself( but not all at once!) but I have to hide it with my "stash" of goodies so no one sees it and steals it, and I also tried to upload a song and convert to MP3 for my playlist but this time it didn't work; so I tried many other options but none of them would work,either,just MY "luck", so I eventually just had to give up( f*ck!!) because I'm poor and cheap and download all my music for free, and yesterday it was soooo windy my hubby even had to move the car out of our driveway all day so the branches off the old maple trees wouldn't come crashing down onto it and I can also tell it's "officially" fall now as my coconut oil has hardened into a solid now and no longer a liquid.

I also haven't shit for 2 days and the abdomenal pain was soooo baaad but I finally did one and I even did the Muslim thing of giving a prayer of thanks and gratitude for the nice good shit( and I really WAS  thankful and grateful for it, believe me; it just felt soooo good; what a relief!) and I also heard somewhere that Alice Cooper and Weird Al are supposed to be the nicest guys in show biz too which is good to hear since most of the celebs and famous people are such arrogant assholes.My hubby and I also split up yesterday and each did some of the shopping and we both got the stuffed PB&J mini sammiches (we both had on the list)I love and have become "addicted" to so now we have twice as many but I'm not complaining!😂

I also read a misleading headline yesterday in the paper about my friend O( from grade 10) who is now a renowed psychologist with a PhD and consulted for all kinds of things; the headline was about many Indigenous People don't get the proper therapy they need and even have therapists that take "advantage" of their trauma and have sex with their patients,etc. and it had a photo of my friend, making the reader falsely believe HE was one of the unethical  doctors and I recognized his photo and my heart just sank but when I actually read the article it said that he was actually one of the specialists they consulted FOR the article; he wasn't one of the unethical ones, and a raccoon also did a shit  on our BBQ as well( dude, that's just nasty!) and they said on the news on the radio this morning a kid found a rusty thumbtack in their Satan's Day candy(in a mini chocolate bar) from the other night as well,another sicko putting pins, razor blades, etc. in kids' candy. WTF is wrong with people,though? Just don't give anything out like we don't  if you don't celebrate it but don't be an asshole.
