So the purchases I ordered on the weekend are here! That's some super-duper shipping in my mind.
The Chapters-Indigo order arrived on Tuesday. Given the stellar online prices I think I'll be ordering all my books online from now on. The Gordon Ramsay cookbook looks like it has some great recipes for sure. Lots of flavour, which will make the bf happy. And the book by Dr. Joey is very inspiring, can't wait to put it into practice when I've finished.
And the Lands' End arrived yesterday (Wednesday). Three days for an order from the good ole U-S of A. Maybe this isn't as impressive as I find it to be. But given that when I mail something to good ole PEI it takes a minimum of a week. So you'll understand my excitement over 2-3 days. But that's not the best part, the best part is that they bathing suits fit! And I don't have the easiest body to conform to, but I followed the sizing chart very closely and it worked!

New things
Earlier this week I finally bought myself a new computer. My old Dell desktop is at least 5 years old. And while it still works, it past its prime a while ago. So the new laptop is a HP model. And so far I like it a lot. It's not your typical black/silver model either... the colour is called "biscotti". Fun and girlie!
So with new computer comes fun things like more shopping online! Tonight I placed two orders. One at American retailer Lands' End and the other from Chapters-Indigo.
A colleague at work told me about great deals on bathing suits at Lands' End and given that I'm off to the Mayan Riviera in exactly five weeks, I am in need of some new bathing suits. So shopping for bathing suits isn't my cup of tea, trying to find ones that actually fit the girls is a big issue. Bonus is that there are certain suits that come in D-DD-DDD sizes! I followed their sizing chart and measured myself, with some help from the bf. So fingers crossed they will fit! The prices in the "overstock" section are fantastic. Although I had to pay a bit of duty and a small shipping charge, I still think it ended up being a good deal.
Finally, at Chapters-Indigo, I ordered a couple books to keep me motivated on my weight-loss plan this year. A new cookbook and another book by Dr. Joey Shulman, a Canadian weight-loss expert who was highly recommended by my chiropractor/holistic nutritionist.
I'm looking forward to receiving all my goodies!
