I made some New Year's resolutions. Some of them are yadda yadda stuff, like drinking more water and losing weight. And then I made a few that were more specific about taking care of myself, and being more consistent in making myself a priority.
But nobody cares about that stuff.
I made two resolutions that are more appropriate internet fodder:
Amazon is a big place, but I felt like I had been really limited in my Amazon exploration. So I decided to expand my reach. Buy weird things! Buy things I don't need! And tell you the honest truth about them all.
Mostly I'm buying little stuff. My goal is to keep it at $40 or less (a lot of things so far have been way less). And I'm only buying Prime stuff because if I wait too long for shipping, this little experiment will lose my interest (remember, I told you I'm trying to get more consistent about things).
It's interesting how aghast people are when I tell them this was a resolution. I guess everyone is so all-about the downsizing/have-less-stuff movement that this strikes people as a bold move in the entirely opposite direction. Eh. Maybe. But let's just chalk it up to Category 1, and move on.
So, I thought I'd share the broadening of my retail horizons with you, gentle readers.
Ready? Here we go....

- Do more stuff that scares you.
- Buy something from Amazon every day.

NOTE: Nothing I'll be sharing here was given to me for free. I should be so lucky. I bought and paid for all this stuff my own self. I did, however, decide to join Amazon's affiliate program, and I'll post an affiliate link for each item I've bought. I'm new to this affiliate thing, but as I understand it, if you click the link I post, and buy that exact item...then I get a .03 Amazon gift card...with which I'll just more buy stuff on Amazon and then post that stuff to the blog. A neverending cycle.
