In My Mailbox #275

Finally back home and blogging again :D Yay! This post is going to be all kinds of huge. Just letting you know :D The first picture is stuff I got in the mail while I was gone. <3 And the next three pictures are things I got and bought while in Chicago :D Eee. I'm in love with all of it. SO MUCH. Gosh. Where will I fit it all? Ugh. No more room :( Sad face. But I couldn't not get it all.. hah. I love it. <3 So anyway. I'm back from Chicago :) It was pretty good. I shall share more about it in a different blog post, though, once I feel up to writing it. Shall share some pictures then too :) But yeah. Now back home, and hopefully starting to catch up shortly :D And reading more too. And doing other things too. Finally it is light enough to take pretty pictures, so yesss :D Happy about that. I'm doing pretty good. Health always sucks, but I'm doing good. Despite some awful news that arrived today. Oh. Hoping it will work out, though. Fingers crossed, please. Anyway.

I'm pretty disappointed with all of them :( With Moana and Harry Potter and Disney and Villains and Supernatural. I mean, I love those I did get, but did not get the ones I wanted :\ Oh, well. I tried at least :) And ee, Harry Potter pins :D Saw them, had to get them. So cute. And the ball! Awesome to squeeze on. So glad I found it, after Melissa shared about it :) It's weird, yet awesome.

SO happy. They were crazy expensive to buy online, so so glad I found them. Eee. And all the plushes :D They are the cutest. Just, sigh. I love all of this so much. This movie is the best. And all of these items means the most to me :) Wishing I could have gotten the Maui doll too, but he was pretty huge and so so heavy. And expensive. Maybe some other time, though ;) So pleased that I found most of what I wanted.
