Well, it’s happened. I missed a few days in Blogmas, AGAIN!! *facedesks* To be honest, I’m a bit pants at planning ahead, unless it’s for trips or something like that. XD (I really need to take organizational lessons from Zoë, cause I have NO IDEA how she’s able to do 24 Days of Zoella AND Vlogmas at the same time, without some major planning way in advance! Plz to be teaching me your ways, senpai! lolz) I have ideas of what I want to do and write about, and have the basic info typed out, but I tend to edit everything in the blog the day of posting, so I rarely have posts scheduled ahead of time.
Honestly, after the Migraine of Doom, I just rested a lot this weekend. The work week takes a lot out of me, so more often than not, my weekends are my stay at home and chill days, unless I do have an errand or two to run, that I couldn’t do during the week. We did go out on Saturday, so I could get my Secret Santa gifts, since we’ll be exchanging those this coming week. Even though I was shopping for others, I couldn’t help myself; I also got myself a few cheeky gifts!
We also finally got our Christmas tree put up; we kept it really simple with just some baubles, beaded garland, white lights, and our traditional angel. More details coming soon to a blog post near you!
While I’m getting back into the swing of daily blogging, and prepping posts, I just realized we have SEVEN days worth of beauty advent calendar goodies to get caught up on; let’s crack on with those, shall we? \:D/
