Stop bitchin’ and go shopping

DSCN0515_146Stress doesn’t begin to describe my world, lately.  Cluttered, trailer trashy crafty Christmas vomit, too many projects…exhibit A…DSCN0514_145 and B and C.

But I’m lucky.

Sure, I’m stressed.  I have to worry about bills. My dog is pooping inside because 50 mile an hour winds are not conducive to an 11lb dog going outside (apparently).  I can’t stop from crying when the song Christmas Shoes comes on.    And you know those “fat pants” you save for the Holidays, when you feel bloated and all hibernation-y… the ones that you put on to make you feel good during the fat times (and by YOU, I mean ME) , they don’t fit!  So I wore yoga pants to my daughter’s Christmas program last night and blamed my tears on Christmas Shoes.

I could have bigger problems than not being able to pull my pants up over my hips and having 100 painted toilet paper rolls on my dining room table…DSCN0517_148

And that is why, I am encouraging you to go shop for Anissa  at Aiming Low today!  Many online vendors are participating in Shop For Anissa and donating a portion of today’s sales to the Mayhew family. 

If you don’t know her story, it’s here, go read it, it’ll make you count your blessings and hug your family a little tighter this season.

  • I wish I could shop and help Anissa’s family. The story is very sad and touching and it is awesome that you are willing to help them out. I hope they raise a good amount during these trying times. Keep being positive you are doing wonderfully.

  • This is so awesome that these sites/vendors are doing this….the first thing I did when i got my pc back on Monday was to check the hope4peyton site to check on an update about anissa

  • OK, Christmas Shoes… gets me every time! Like a blubbering idiot I am at work when that song comes on.. its awful! and I totally can relate to the yoga pants. I have been busting butt working out every morning but the pants just arent getting any looser… maybe I shouldnt have had that 3rd(4th) helping of Baklava at the office today…. :(
