(Apparently I buy everything in packs of two)
Hair repair treatment. This is worth the money. I tried a few different products because my hair was very dry from, weirdly, just highlighting it two or three times a year. Bleach is bleach is bleach, I guess. I love this stuff. You can buy little single use packs at Walmart to just try it out. I can get 2-3 uses from a little pouch of it, but I have been using it a few times a week.
LG Universal Remotes. Maverick ate the remote awhile back and eventually it stopped working so this is a two-pack, overnight delivery for free because of Prime <3.
Beeswax candles. I gifted some for Christmas and also bought myself a couple. I am all-in on these and I recommend everyone give them a try. Here's the benefits to burning beeswax.
Sourdough Starter Warmer. I gifted this for Christmas and I need one for myself but I'm really just worn out from attempting sourdough. I need to pull my starter out of the fridge. It just seems like one more thing that I don't feel like doing.
Pill organizer. Scout the Dog takes medicine twice a day and, while I understand what and when since I'm in charge of it, I find that Scott gets mixed up when they're hunting. And, since we were leaving the dogs with my parents for a few days, I needed a system for his medicine. This was only $5 and honestly has made life a lot easier because I just reload it once a week. The only thing I don't like is that I have to have a better handle on the refill schedule because I'm not opening the bottles twice a day to notice how much is left.
Galaxy projector. We had a galaxy projector last year and it broke/stopped working after a few months. VERY annoying. The kids had loved it though so Scott went out and got them a new one for Christmas. This one is different, better quality, and I like it a lot so far. I think it's worth a try if you're in the market for one! They use it as a nightlight (Sutton has a different one and Wells has been using this.)
Not a great pic, but it's very realistic and kind of rotates around the room:
(If you are new here, we live in the KC area and are not Chiefs fans. My brother lives nowhere near KC and is a Chiefs fan.)
Infant headbands. A Christmas buy for our baby niece. You can never have too many of these with a baby girl and the more colors the better.
Land's End Snowboots. I got these snowboots for our trip east. They are great and I recommend them because they're waterproof and I spent a lot of time in puddles in Buffalo. They run a little big. I've only had two pairs of actual snowboots in my adult life: a $35 pair in Alaska and now these. I expect them to last at least 15 years, doing that math. I bought from Amazon, specifically, for the ease of returns if they didn't fit.
Maybelline 4-in-1 Instant Perfector. This is my second tube. It's what I use as concealer and instead of actual foundation. I blend it in with a brush and do some light powder over top. I thought I was ordering one (my original came from Walmart but they don't have it in-store anymore) and they sent me a two-pack for $9. Quite the value!
Some books for Christmas:
The Wild Robot for Wells
The mouse and strawberry book for Sutton. I remember reading this to a kindergarten class two decades ago lol.
I know a lot of people like to cut back in January on purchases and especially purchases on Amazon. I generally don't buy things unless I need them or require them for something. And if Amazon keeps me out of a store where I'll buy even more or saves me an entire day of driving around town, so be it.
