Shopping on Percocet…a Bad Idea?

Those of you familiar with my blog know I like to spend some time making fun of myself…and those around me.  I’ve been out of commission for a while after having surgery, and the doctor gave me these wonderful pain pills called Percocet.  The good news is that they take the pain away…the bad news is that I decided to do some internet shopping the other day.  Here’s what I felt I had to buy:

I like to walk every day, and I never have an umbrella that works.  The colors of this one just entranced me, so I ordered it.  But…it’s summer now, and we’re heading into record hot weather next week.  So a rain umbrella?  Um, no.  But isn’t it pretty?

So, apparently I continued on, searching for those things I really needed, and came across this wonderful collection of nail polishes.  I like being pampered and often get a mani/pedi, thus I don’t really own many nail polish bottles.  But, these called to me for some reason–and I just had to buy them in my lala land of a state.  I particularly am curious about the yellow.

Keeping with the draw of bright colors, I purchased a water fountain for my office.  I’ve always wanted a water fountain but never quite got around to buying one.  This one drew me in with the bright blue colorful lights, and it should arrive any day.  Who knew that working on the laptop would bring such delights to my door?

Then, because I must’ve needed a pretty cup and saucer, I found this dainty pair of Belleek beauties.  I love Belleek and do often collect the different patterns, so this made some sense.  Of course, I have never bought a new set from Amazon and had no clue Amazon sold Belleek.  Discovery!

Keeping with the theme of it about to be hotter than hot where I live, I then purchased this unique set of fuzzy socks to wear during the heat wave.  I mean, doesn’t everybody need fuzzy, striped socks during the 100 degree weather?  What if your feet get cold?

Since I now have so many bottles of nail polish, I needed a bunch of emery boards–right?   I mean, it doesn’t make sense to just buy the polish.  So…look what I found!

Then, to round out my shopping, I bought a bunch of Celtic jewelry, some books, an X-box, some dresses, placeware, makeup, lipstick, lotions, and some boots.  And…just to make sure I’m ready if it rains again…another umbrella.  Note to self…hide the laptop when on pain meds. 

Just a quick reminder here – FORGOTTEN SINS releases on Tuesday!  What a great summer/long weekend read!
