This holiday season I am not going to fight all the traffic at the mall. It’s easier for me to stay and home and order my Christmas shopping online. This year is going to be hard to Christmas shopping because my daughter is at the age where you can’t buy her toys. I miss the times when I could purchase a toy and she would be happy. When she turned 13 I started letting her wear some make up. I gradually let her wear a little more make up. I don’t let her wear too much make up. I think teens should not wear too much make up because they need to show off their natural beauty. Elf is inexpensive make up my daughter wears. It only costs $1.00 per item and its well worth the price. I was surprised how good the quality. You can order it online or I have purchased it at Kmart. I plan on starting my Christmas shopping the day after thanksgiving on Black Friday. I want to make all my Christmas shopping online so I don’t have to fight the traffic in the stores and on the road. It seems like December people are in a bigger hurry. It’s nice that they offer online black Friday especially for someone dealing with the ups and downs of living with lupus and its side dishes. One trip to a store wears me out totally. It can be so discouraging when you love to shop.

Hi,
I just wanted to comment on your post and thank you for a little more insight of your daily life with Lupus. I don’t have it, but my very good friend does. I would like to find out how I might help her deal with her situation. I know its hard for her most days, but she is very brave and I’m sure she doesn’t moan about every ache and pain. I’m thinking that I might, if I had lupus. Take care and I’ll be checking back with your blog!
My shopping is basically down to remembering what it was like.
Even on line shopping is financially out.
Be well
I’m going to have to get pretty creative this year since finances aren’t going to be playing nicely on my side since I’ve been out of work for over three months. Love online shopping though!!!!!
Personally, I cant bare to think about Christmas yet. It’s far too early for me. Of course, it’s hard to escape these days!
Hello, regarding the comment box. Are you referring to the author’s comment box? If so, here is a link to the website where I got the information. My comment section was a little different from what he highlighted, so I had to play around a little until I got it to work (I have a practice blog that I use). If you have any problems with it, please let me know and I would be more that happy to try and help:)

Thank you so much for the participation but i am guessing you want me to do something right? Hope to hear from you soon. God bless!
Totally agree with the makeup philosophy. My teen twin daughters wear it everyday, not overdone, but I tell them they have natural beauty and should let it shine through. But, my advice gets blown off, as usual.
I sometimes feel glad that I am away from my country, that I dont have anyone to buy gifts this xmas aside from my family. But you know what? It’s so sad to spend christmas far from those people I am supposed to buy gifts

On-line shopping is definitely the way to go! My kids are all older too now, so they would rather have money to go shopping on their own. It’s not as much fun, but definitely easier.
