usmcsis's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ebay is way too addictive - & annoying pt3 if i get sick it will be my dad's fault. i went to the doctor a month ago and got all antibiotic-ed up and have been taking mucho preventive measures so that i will avoid the nastiness that i suffered from for over a month last winter. however, daddy has been coughing and hacking and hoking phlegm around here for a good four weeks now. i've been running a low fever all day and have spent most of the day asleep. i guess it's a good thing i was off today. maybe my extended napping and the fever will help get rid of this mess before it takes root. damn germs. so, it's official. i have a serious ebay problem. years ago i stopped even browsing because i would be practically drooling over the selection of cookie jars. in the past forty eight hours i have won two auctions and am hoping to win a third tomorrow morning around ten. damn ebay. so, the auction that closes tomorrow morning is for this jar. i have one just like it only it's red with white flowers that my grandma gave me for my birthday a few years back. there are several color combinations and one day i am hoping to be able to find all of them. i've also made 2005 christmas gift purchase already. i won this jar. it's snowden, the target christmas mascot from either 1997 or 1998. mama bought me one for christmas the year that it came out but she doesn't have one herself. she loves snowmen in general and loves snowden too. one year she dressed up as snowden for the work christmas party. (for those of you who didn't know, mama used to work at target (where else) also) the first jar i won was this one. it is for a doll house but i couldn't resist it. i mailed the money orders for the two i've already won off today so i hope to be getting them in soon. i've cut myself off of ebay now though. well, i'm still browsing through the listing, drooling over the gorgeous jars that i would love to own but can't afford. i think i may use ebay as a reward for myself for the new year. if i do well say, getting healthy, losing weight, lowering my cholestorol, or paying off bills and saving money, then i'll reward myself by letting myself get one jar off ebay. we'll see though. well, i'm off to browse some more while i wait for my clothes to dry then i'm going to hit the nyquil and go back to bed. i have inventory at work tomorrow and it is going to suck if i don't feel well. toodles 8:33 pm - 28 Dec 2004 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
