Celebrate the Small Things -- Oct 24

It's Friday and I'm Celebrating The Small Things!  Celebrate The Small Things is a weekly celebration where some bloggers have decided to post about something worth celebrating...no matter how big or small it is.

The biggest thing we are celebrating this week is FOX...as in the channel.  I don't know what happened, but we lost FOX a couple of months ago.  Since we don't have cable, we rely on our Roku box and an actual antenna that is set up in the attic to watch tv (we're so old school).  Our antenna provides us with "regular" channels (i.e. CBS, NBC, ABC).  Last night, while my husband was channel surfing, he discovered that we miraculously have FOX back...and in the middle of the World Series.  You must understand one thing...my husband is a baseball fanatic...a serious crazy man when it comes to baseball.  Getting this channel back during the world series is like a gift from God.  Peace and joy can now, once again, reign in our house. 

I'd also like to celebrate my acupuncturist.  She is a wonderful healer who works wonders sometimes when it comes to my aches and pains.  The past couple of weeks have been hard on my body because of the drastic temperature changes (read more about this here).  I feel very blessed that I have an all natural alternative to western pharmaceuticals.

On a lighter note, I'm also celebrating my two new nail polishes that I got for a steal!  I was back at Walgreens this week and picked up a Wet n' Wild polish on sale for $1, and found another polish on the clearance rack that was priced at $2.12.  When the clerk rang me up, he asked if I would like to use my Walgreens rewards.  Um, yes please!  So I had $3 taken off my order.  BAAM!...two awesome new nail polishes for 12 cents!

Happy Weekend!


What are you celebrating?

  2. FOX in the house - yay! Acupuncture - enjoying someone sticking it to you - there's a switch! Any polish sale or discount is welcome - what a deal. Take care.

    1. Acupuncture has been a lifesaver for me. I no longer have to take narcotics everyday! Thanks for stopping by!

  4. Glad to hear your acupuncture is working well. I have never tried it myself but have spoken to people who have with good results. Love your nail polish bargains too. Happy weekend.

  5. Yay for FOX and that your husband gets to watch the Series! It really hurts when you can't follow your teams - I can't watch football this year (ESPN and FOX Sports were cancelled in the Middle East this year. *sniff*) Enjoy baseball!

  8. Twelve cents? That's pretty hard to beat. I was going to suggest eztv.it and getting yourself a bit torrent downloader, but if you're watching sports, that's probably not the best way to go. Glad you got FOX back!
