Post-Christmas Rush and Lush!

I'm back home in NJ after being with my family for the past week in GA!  It was so nice to see all of them and be together for the holidays.  We did gift exchanging on Christmas Eve because my flight was on Christmas Day.    Today, I bravely went to the mall which was rife with traffic congestion to do my Christmas shopping.  It was a little overwhelming but got out of there in two hours.  I got some of my coworkers yummy Voluspa candles, a hair straightener for my roommate, Fashion sketchpad and tattoo pens for her daughter, and Skyrim for my boyfriend!  On top of getting all the gifts I needed to pick up, my boyfriend decided to be awesome and let me spend $100 at Lush!  =D

Snowflake Mania

So my roommate and her daughter started decorating the house about two weeks ago for Christmas. The decorations included making paper snowflakes to hang from the ceilings. I remember making snowflakes in school as a kid but it had been such a long time that I had forgotten how to do it. My roommate and her daughter showed me how to make them and now I can't stop! Here's a tutorial if you have forgotten the magic of making snowflakes like me.

Detoxing in Georgia... LoL

Warning: This is a TMI post. If you feel like you don't want to become close bosom buddies with me and my bodily functions then don't read.

I haven't updated my blog in the last few days as I am at my parents house. I've been spending some quality time with them as well as settling into the Georgian atmosphere for the past three days. It's a little warmer than the frigid cold I left in NJ but I've been cold still since my parents awesomely skimp on the heat to keep the bill low. I am cozied up next to a space heater as we speak. =)
