Birthday wish list…

 

Shoes

I think I really need a new pair of Teva’s or other really good walking sandals.    My feet hurt ALL the time now and I think it is because after six months of intense walking while wearing the same pair of Teva’s they just don’t have the same shock absorbance they used to.  I wear a Women’s size 7

(Tho if you buy and send these let me know and I will take them off the list so I don’t get to many pairs)

 

DVD’s/Books/CD’s

You know the previously viewed cheepo DVD’s.  If you see one you liked or one you think I will like send it!  

If you see a used book you think I would like, or want to burn a CD of music you like and think I may too, I would love that.   Also there are a few DVD’s/Books/CD’s that I really want (like West Wing and Gilmore Girls DVD’s) listed on my Amazon wish list… tho if you are anti-Amazon I totally understand, I mostly use it for keeping a Media wish list.

Gaiam Pest control products or gift certificate. (www.gaiam.com)

They have great natural pest control products to help with Namu (mosquitoes) and mice.  Both of which I have in and around my home.  I want this or this or even this looks neat for outside.

 

Green Tea body spray 

This is cheep and you can find it at Target.    It smells good and fresh and not floral or real purfumey.   I just ran out of it, and would love more. 

 

Tea!

The only tea you can get here really is plain black tea.   Fancy Tea like Earl Grey’s (or better Lady Grey)  or yummy herbal fruity blends (With the acceptation of lemon, I don’t really like lemon tea)  or even green tea.  Whatever as long as it is more exciting than the Samoa equivalent of Brisk tea.

 

 

Powdered Orange Gatorade or Crystal Lite

It helps with the 80 oz of water I am supposed to be drinking a day.  (You sweat a lot here so to keep really hydrated you should drink between 70 and 80oz of water a day.)  I can really only stomach orange flavored Gatorade and the Crystal lite stuff is good because it doesn’t have a lot of sugar (which I really don’t need).  

 

Ziplocs and that faux tuperware stuff.

I need Ziploc bags.  Sandwich and freezer sized.  I brought some with me but they are just about used up.  Even with recycling and reusing them a few times.  Also the Ziploc or Glad brand reusable Tupperware/container stuff is nice.   These things keep food ant-proof so I put just about everything in them. 

 

Or just send money to your favorite PVC.

 

And Lastly, Birthday Cards would be neat!
