All I Want For Christmas

Here is my Christmas List (so far...)

"Practical things I actually REALLY need"
1. Under-clothing (contact me for sizing info.)
2. Money for contact lenses and glasses
3. Intuition Plus Razor cartridge refills (approx. $10-15)
4. Money for medicine in 2010. (Really fun, I know....)
5. Money for a haircut - long overdue!

"More Exciting things I really want"
1. Gift certificate to Bath and Body Works
2. Gift certificate to Target
3. Box of See's Peanut Brittle (not the sugar-free kind.)
4. mark Self Sanctuary Lemon Sugar Scent Mist, found at meetmark.com ($12.00)
5. Scarf made by my roommate Dana with her sweet knitting skills ($25.00, payable to Dana for supplies and time.)
6. Scripture tote, black
7. Gift certificate to Nordstrom

And here is where I made a list of other things I want a lot:
Under the Etsy.com name "WishListRachelle" you can look at my favorites. I love all the items in there. They are not in any particular order. In fact, the cheapest item (approx. $6.00) is what I want most; the Lemon soap from Dennis Anderson. (I need some more soap soon and that kind is good on my skin and smells great!) If you haven't used Etsy, just ask me how and I'll help gladly. ;-)

So, that's my long Christmas list. Hopefully it's helpful and if not, well it was a bit fun to make, so that's okay!

If you could have just one thing for Christmas, what would it be? (More wishes or lots of money does not count!) Comment below. :-)

It has been a LONG time...

Dear Readers,

It has been a LONG time since I've updated my Blog. This is my justification/apology blog entry.

First things first: I am sorry. When you "follow" a blog, you expect a little bit of writing now and then. I have not been following through with that, which certainly makes a blog much more boring.

So here I am, now faced with two options: 1. Do a quick summary and try to catch everyone up on the last few months of my life, or 2. Move on and do a better job.

I think I am picking option #2. Frankly, it is much easier. And my life hasn't really been exciting/funny/outrageous lately. The only thing that is of note lately is that I have had some health problems. (One of the reasons for not updating...) It is possible that I have (another) chronic pain condition and I have had some tests to determine a diagnosis. In the meantime, I am on medication that makes me drowsy A LOT!

Health problems aside, I am making it a goal to Blog 2-3 times per week. I cannot promise that every entry will be witty, entertaining, or mind-expanding, but I will certainly try! :-)

P.S. My next entry will be my Christmas List - sweet, eh?
