Happy Tuesday Everyone! it got really chilly overnight but we have sunshine and pretty decent temperatures in the high 60s. Definitely feeling like Fall.
My morning was off to a busy start. The dog groomer came at 10am and Mush got her full spa treatment. Boy she needed it badly and now she smells and looks like the princess she thinks she is 
I pretty much just finished my breakfast which is probably more like brunch. Had my coffee while the groomer was here but waited until she left to eat.
I started my Christmas shopping!!! I can't believe I even said that because it's way early for me to even be thinking about the holidays.
But, Amazon is having some Prime deals and something my daughter has on her Christmas list is on sale and marked down enough that it would be crazy to pass up. With Amazon you can't ever count on something staying the same price or lower so it's best to grab what you can if you can.
It feels both good and a bit strange saying I started my shopping and my only hope now is that I don't put it away and then forget where I put it 
I know this day is going to fly by and it's Tuesday which means girls night.
How's your Tuesday going?

My day isn’t going bad at all. I saw that it was prime day today and tomorrow, but unfortunately I didn’t have enough gift cards to really buy anything this time. I’m glad to hear you got some good deals yourself. I know it seems like Christmas is a long way off, but it really will be here before too long. Now, I understand what you mean about hopefully not forgetting where you put the presents. I remember one year in about April of maybe 2002, I came across a bubble bath I had bought back in November for my mom. She got a nice little surprise that day!
It’s sunny and so pretty outside. I think the high is 82°F today. I am really enjoying the beautiful weather, and so is Sadie. She knows we can stay outside longer when her mama can walk around without being so hot. Like Mush, Sadie thinks her every whim should be taken into account. So these long walks are like her finally getting her due..
I hope you have a great day!

I wasn't even going to check Amazon to see if they were really having any super bargains but my daughter got a notice that something that she's wanted really dropped in price. So, I figured I'd jump on the sale and get it for her.
Glad you have some really nice weather to enjoy and that you and Sadie get some time outside. I'm lucky I have a deck so Mush likes to sit out there and keep an eye on the neighborhood

@Marilynda1225 I like the thought of Mush on Neighborhood Watch.

Yesterday was a busy day for me. I have some things in my basket on Amazon that I plan to get tomorrow. Sis has a bday coming up in Dec. before Christmas. I asked her if she wanted a personalized mug like I got for her husband, and she said yes..so I will see if I can find that, and hope it is marked down.

That sounds like a good idea for your sister. I have so many mugs and hate to get rid of any since most were gifts and have sentimental memories. Hope the one you want comes with a sale price. Mugs can be pricey

Hahahaha I love that! Figured I wasn't the only one who misplaces things. I'd say yes, you are ahead in your shopping since you found those items

That is great that the Princess got the pamper treatment this morning.
Good for you for getting so much shopping done.
I am waiting until my last week of vacation for this year to do mine, I used to do it then and liked it so much.
Some years I have to force myself into purchases, but if I wait a little bit it should come easier.

This is the earliest I've started shopping in forever. Maybe I can find more bargains in the upcoming weeks and really make a dent in my shopping. Usually I procrastinate every year moreso from not having any good gift ideas.
Hope your shopping goes well when you start. Im sure the girls will be excited when Christmas comes

I put something away probably a year ago but today I needed it. Luckily I knew where I'd stored it.
