Boxing Day, Week, Month, ...

Happy Boxing Day! I hope that you had a great Christmas. If you don't celebrate it, I hope that you had some time off to spend with family and friends.

Boxing Day used to be a one-day event in which you would go into a crowded store, find decent deals, and come out in hopefully one piece. It seems like a farce these days, where Boxing Day has become Boxing Week and possibly Boxing Month.

I tend to avoid the malls on Boxing Day these days. Today, I did go out to a Chinese bakery to restock my fridge, which was the highlight of my day. The roads were pretty good traffic-wise.

As for the bargains, I shop online. I managed to get some wine-coloured winter boots. I haven't owned a pair for a few years, so it was time to get some. I am not sure how I managed since snow predictably occurs in Canada.

Anyway, I have spent a lot of time on Etsy. Once of these days, I will purchase a clear lexan paddle. My backside is fearing it, but I have always wanted one.

I will be writing a post on the gift exchange that both my guy and I had. I just wanted to squeeze in a short post.

  1. Hey CB...We don't celebrate Boxing Day here in the states but I did have the day off. After all the work to get ready for Christmas and all the festivities yesterday, I spent today at home and never even got out of my robe. LOL Ooh...Those are adorable boots! Hope they keep your feet nice and toasty warm. Woman...think twice, thrice and then again about that blasted Lexan paddle...IMHO, your bum will definitely regret it. Looking forward to hearing about your gift exchange.

    Hugs and Blessings...

    1. I'm glad that you got the day off. It's like we need a vacation day or more to recover from all the preparation work to get to Christmas!

      I am crazy to want a lexan paddle. I know that it will hurt when used on me, but lexan paddles are difficult to purchase in Canada. I still have plenty of time to think about it. =)

    1. I'm curious as well, Han. I haven't ordered it. When I do, you'll definitely know. =)
