I want them back

So Danielle gave her friends CurleyQCuties for her birthday. Which was so fun because we had a box full of cuties and then all the kids got to pick one.
Except now I want them all back. I want more cuties! I love the cuties! They are the best.
According to the description "This Cutie doesn't miss anything with his one large eye! He sees what's going on and nothing gets past him!" For Danielle's party I got 6 cuties in the mail in about 2 days- which mean that she had party favors. I was thrilled. So I got totally bailed out and the party was beautiful.
But if I had gotten them just a little bit later I would still have them, instead of those smelly kids. I want a white one with pink dots. How fun would that be? I originally got Austin a cutie for Easter but I liked it so much he never got it. Sometimes I see him sniffing it. But it is mine. Because that's what most adults need. Stuffed monsters.

Money Mondays



So here is my request for "Money Monday's." I want these earrings to wear to Paul and Melissa's wedding. They are from etsy and I like them. I would also wear them in "real-life" after the wedding.

Getting Organized


The pottery Barn Laundry cubby is finally on sale and I want it. I am into home improvement lately. John put in an awesome shelf in the laundry closet and it is fantastic. I like to have something to put the wash and drying stuff on and I dry clothes on the racks. but this would increase my storage capacity even more- I could probably put my towels on the shelves which is thrilling.
here is a description

Three compartments fit our small Canvas Utility Tote (sold separately), and a metal rod lets you hang clothing. Comes with our Simple Mount hardware. 35.5 x 14.5 x 16.5" h.

Brown Fabric



The other day someone asked me if I had a matching white and brown print to go with one of my Burp cloths. I had a lighter brown and a print- but no double brown and white. So of course I wanted to look around in my stash and see then I wanted to look online at etsy. I found some awesome brown and white fabric.
I love it and I want it. All of it. wouldn't a brown quilt look good? and a set of burp cloths would be so nice with different browns- baby stuff matches with Brown! Danielle has a cute brown dress and brown pants and brown matches my diaper bag. Well one of them.

Treadmill

I wish I had enough money for a treadmill. You see then I could work out at home when Danielle was asleep. The treadmill at the Marriott was probably the coolest treadmill I have ever seen- it had some special programs and I read a review of it online. This is the star track treadmill.
I bought a cheap treadmill the other day at costco.com and then immediately had buyers remorse. So I called them to try to cancel the order. Unfortunately it was already with the shipper. So they told me I needed to refuse delivery and I would get my money back. It took three months and they didn't automatically register that I never received my item- they waited until I contacted them- and then 15 business days later I received my money. How rude. I was very upset at how they told me if I called it would be registered but then didn't do what they said they would. I don't think I will use their services again. Also I got a bunch of pictures digitized there and they all have a line through them. Can I get my money back for that? I don't know. But I hate costco.com
Well check this treadmill out- you would love it and I loved it and I will probably never have it. No wonder Hotels are so expensive- fancy treadmills.

So, I was going to get professional help...

I was seriously going to get professional help for compulsive shopping, but it cost too much. It cost like $2000 for 10 therapy sessions. And so here is a blog where hypothetically I will post things I want to buy instead of actually buying them. So, it's my own much less expensive compulsive shopping plan.
