Dollar Tree Christmas Junk Journal With Me FLIP THRU_ Hockey Player Argument w_ Mikah and Storytime

A Memorable Encounter with a Hockey Player

I still remember the day I met him like it was yesterday. It was a date, and I was looking forward to getting to know my partner better. As we were chatting, a guy came skating by, locking eyes with me in the most unexpected way. He smiled at me, and then pulled out his teeth, smiling again as if nothing had happened. The whole thing was so surreal that I couldn't help but laugh. I looked over at my date, Micah, and told her the story, expecting a reaction of shock or amusement. But what she said next left me speechless.

Micah's response was that this had happened in the 90s, when people didn't have implants for dental issues. She explained that if someone gets their teeth knocked out, they literally wear dentures until they can get new ones. Her reaction was not one of surprise or shock but rather a matter-of-fact acceptance. I was taken aback by her nonchalance and couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to date someone who wears dentures on the ice.

The memory of that hockey player is still etched in my mind, but unfortunately, I don't remember his jersey number or the team he played for. It's as if my brain decided to block out those details, leaving me with only a vague recollection of the incident. The reason behind his actions remains a mystery, and I often wonder what inspired him to pull out his teeth in such an unusual way.

The encounter was both bizarre and fascinating at the same time. His behavior was ballsy, to say the least, but it also left me with a sense of unease. Was he trying to make a statement or startle me? The lack of apology or explanation only added to the mystique surrounding this incident.

As I reflect on that day, I realize how quickly life can take unexpected turns. A conversation about hockey jerseys turned into an impromptu dental exam, and I was left with more questions than answers. What would have happened if he hadn't pulled out his teeth? Would our lives have taken a different path?

In the end, it's not the specifics of that encounter that remain with me but rather the emotions and sensations evoked by the experience. The shock, amusement, and even embarrassment are all still present, serving as a reminder of how quickly our perceptions can shift.

A Personal Experience with Winter Weather

As I stepped outside to get some fresh air, I couldn't help but notice the frigid temperatures. It's no secret that winter weather can be unforgiving, but today seemed particularly harsh. The wind was biting, and my skin felt like it was on fire. I could only hope that my friends would appreciate my unique take on winter clothing.

A Look Back at Christmas Junk Journaling

As the holiday season approaches, many of us find ourselves turning to old hobbies or revisiting familiar pastimes. For me, one such activity is junk journaling. There's something therapeutic about collecting and arranging various materials into a cohesive piece of art. This year, I decided to create a special project – a Christmas mystery kit.

The kit will feature a variety of materials, including paper scraps, embellishments, and other fun supplies. I'll be sharing tutorials and tips on how to assemble these kits, making it easy for everyone to get involved. Whether you're a seasoned crafty person or just starting out, this is the perfect opportunity to explore your creativity.

A Special Announcement from My Etsy Shop

In addition to my Christmas mystery kit, I have some exciting news to share with my Etsy shop followers. As requested by one of my customers, I will be releasing my Christmas kits earlier than expected – in July! It's called Christmas in July, and it's the perfect way to celebrate the holiday season in a non-traditional way.

Stay Warm and Stay Safe

As we head into the new year, I want to remind everyone to prioritize their well-being. Winter weather can be unforgiving, so make sure to bundle up and stay warm. Don't forget to take care of your mental health as well – it's just as important as physical well-being.

Book Review Coming Up

As a token of appreciation for my channel followers, I'll be sharing my book review in the next few days. It's going to be a special post, featuring a unique take on an old favorite. If you have any suggestions or recommendations, please don't hesitate to share them with me.

today's YouTube live uh-huh yeah it's only making it worse um is going to be the pull up through of oh thank you so much for saying happy birthday oh my gosh that's so sweet thank you um oh my gosh that is so sweet I did not expect that I you're behind me so or like you're over my shoulder so I yeah so if I don't see all the comments that's why um oh some of these are like not in the right place but we'll put them back where they belong hold on no no no no you know he literally wants to come to the camera you're not going oh my gosh foreign okay sorry about that um he really was crying to be on this camera oh my God that that just is hilarious to me Loki doesn't really whine and do stuff like that so the moment I whipped out this camera he had a problem okay um so we are gonna do a flip through of my junk Journal um and just kind of like talk about this junk Journal is insane um yeah so that's what I'm gonna do today so there's not gonna be any like junk journaling at all um but so I there's a lot of things I just have not finished yet and I'll be trying to finish the cover once I'm done basically I think I want either some lace around here and kind of make it look like it's sitting on the back of a doily um and I think I'll probably call it a day with that so the other thing is is that um I really should have stopped kind of about right here and then started a new Journal because as you can see it's like really thick and then as I was going through here I learned that it's just sometimes I had to like junk Journal at a 90 degree angle and like that's not going to cut it so and my junk Journal I do a lot of like thicker things like I your junk Journal doesn't have to be thick like this um but even if you were to just do everything flat your junk Journal still gets thick it's it's really fun I think that's part of the process but anyways so it's just really hard to kind of show but here's the first page and created lots of little cute pockets and the goal or like the look that I wanted to go for was really um like vintage but I also didn't want everything to be exactly 100 matching it was this napkin that um actually changed like how I wanted this to look because originally I was gonna go for like traditional but then I decided it needed to like these pops of pink and light blues and and then I have like little charms and ribbons but yeah the only regret I have on this journal is just not starting another one when I should have um so and then we made a Shaker card the Shaker card um is super cute and the card itself is Dollar Tree and then I also added this little charm which is from Hobby Lobby I think and then these little hair barrettes I just thought it gave it like this vintage look to it and they're from Dollar Tree and I just like clipped it at the bottom basically um okay do I have the yeah so I wanted to kind of like cover up some of like where I wrote so here's kind of the inside flap of this which I know is kind of like hard to see but and then there's some Pom-Pom trim on the end here like this is probably one of this is probably one of my favorite Shaker cards that I made in the entire set was this one and then this page was just kind of sometimes you have like tester Pages or at least that's like what I call it a test page where and this brings up when this lady in one of my last lives she was like I just get overwhelmed I don't know where to start so I don't do it which is exactly what happened to me um I actually wanted to start young journaling like three years ago and I just kept putting it off and putting it off because it just seemed yeah it seemed overwhelming and you don't know where to start but you just my mindset when I finally did I was like just go into it without like and just say Okay this page is going to be crappy that's just how I did it in my head and I just threw a bunch of stuff down and then like you start you start to feel less intimidated and you get into a Groove and then you like I still do like tester Pages like this where I want to see certain things but I don't know exactly like how to make it look the best so I just throw stuff together and then you just kind of like see what happens so there's that page and then this was another page where I just really yeah I really wasn't sure where it was going but you can see here that I have um I have this napkin again so the both of these napkins were from Tuesday morning and they were the they were the entire theme with like this pink and um and then this is like a Dollar Tree card and this is like where I wrote In you know what I did that day kind of thing and this is another Shaker card that we made from Dollar Tree on alive so writing space here if I wanted to and then I don't know if you can see the little sprinkles but yeah that image is from a Dollar Tree card and then this is from Dollar Tree it came off of like a wine bag or a gift bag and then I just added some sticker letters so I really like that card and yeah see like look showing you is really hard because um it's just too thick and then I made little cards out of gift bags from Dollar Tree so this is a Santa from a gift bag the flash cards from Dollar Tree and then even the ribbon is Dollar Tree and then you can just like right on the back so that was really fun I felt like I could have done like a million of these and I've honestly I probably will in my Valentine's Day and then this is like a little Nutcracker that came from a gift box from Dollar Tree um they kind of put them on like as a little pop-up and I just peeled them off and that's how I used it so there's that and then one of my favorite pages and oh the little the little balloon busted um this was December 4th and that's my daughter's birthday so I wanted it to not have like a Christmasy theme I wanted to have a birthday theme and it was really this card this card's from Dollar Tree and it was just the whole entire inspiration I love this like floral Washi that I used and then it's I also used the envelope so I essentially glued this card which there's lives on all of this or like videos you can watch on all these Pages um and then it's like attached to a Dollar Tree bag and then inside this bag I have these cute little cards and on the back is what I wrote for the day and then m is just for Micah and then also this little strawberry Banner this is from Dollar Tree um but yeah and then I also put pictures of the day oh there's that and then I also wrote in here but super cute stuff and then on the inside I have like this came with a set with these from like Tuesday morning I put a piece of her wrapping paper that I used which was from Dollar General and then I wrote on the back of here as well has like a little cake but I'm not going to show like what I wrote because that's just like private to me um so super cute and then on this side when we removed these this was actually the original wrapping paper I was going to use it's from Dollar Tree but then I changed it to the other one I found at Dollar General and then just keep it really cute and cupcakes and all that so one of my favorite pages um when I'm done comment and let me know what your favorite page is which I feel like it's going to be this one this is a lot of favorites and it's also Micah's favorite um so actually I actually did this one off camera um but it's super cute like this little uh Pearl trim is from Dollar Tree and then honestly the star of the show is this little card which is from Dollar Tree and I just like kept the envelope with it I just like the pop of the solid color and then the popcorn bag from Dollar Tree and then I added the ribbon so the ribbon honestly changed it a lot because I kept looking back at this page and I didn't have the ribbon at the time and I was like something's something's not quite there and the moment I added the ribbon it's like little things so yeah I didn't write on the back of this one um I think I wrote on the inside of this car so let me see oh I didn't write in this one actually um and then this fabric right here is from Dollar Tree which I love I use it I use it again later on you'll see it and then this was like gifted to me so I just didn't want to ruin it I just wanted to kind of leave it as is and then we have the gingerbread page which I kind of was going off of this card which is from Dollar Tree and I wrote inside there I also wrote on the back of this little receipt but I just like played around with it and just added you know this little star this gingerbread star is like window cling then I just added a green paper clip and then these little like and they're all from Dollar Tree um but yeah I think the inspiration was this card plus this like gingerbread window cling set from Dollar Tree and then I was trying to also mix like plaids in here and then these bags are Dollar Tree as well and turn them into these little like pop-ups look at that like that is just so freaking cute that was a fun live and then inside I created these little like books so this is a Dollar Tree client window cling set and then here's the gingerbread one yeah I didn't ride in this one but so have a cute little gingerbread oh did I do one to the back of this one yeah so super cute that was really fun I mean I'm not I'm not a professional so all of like these little things I experimented with are kind of like my first time doing so that was fun um and yeah so that was that page and then another favorite of mine this is when we get a little bit more traditional and the inspiration was this which actually was a magazine that came in the mail a couple weeks ago Olive and Coco I've never heard of it um I used this cardigan same little Trio from from there I just thought they were absolutely darling the same Pearl trim from Dollar Tree and then of course had to make another Shaker card and this one just turned out so cute another one of my favorite shakers has like the white snow just oh so pretty and then creating you know little pockets and Tuck spots um and then just kind of cover it up so I also wrote in here so I did like a little flip thing which this is a little hard to kind of like get on yeah my arms literally in the way but um this little card is from Dollar Tree and then I just created this little like V which is kind of cute it kind of looks like the top of a like Mrs Claus's like you know dress or shirt or something so I thought that was really cute so that's that page this was also another one of my favorite pages um this is when this is when I really should have probably cut cut the the journal and started another one um but I used one of my favorite items from Dollar Tree which are these lunch bags they just automatically give me vintage Vibes and all kinds of things and then the card so pretty and then this was actually from um an Italian cake that I had so it's kind of also like a memory like I ate this in December but then I used it as a decor which I thought was really pretty and then I I made a bunch of like little things to go inside of it so this one super cute you can see I'm like trying to reuse the same plaids and then this is a card in which I wrote you know like my day my daily entry and then this one kind of got torn up a little bit so you know for next time I'll know like kind of how to deal a little bit better with doilies but I really like how vintage it looks and the eight is just for like December 8th and then this cute little card which I wrote on the back so you can't really see on the back but it just turned out so pretty I love it this was just a snack I had that day so I just like included it and this little bingo card which I kind of did some aging inking and then you can like ride on the back so that goes in this front tuck pocket um I actually revisit this page quite often this month because it was also the page where I um I wrote out my grocery list for like Christmas dinner which I just use I actually pulled them out of here and I had to take them to the store with me so I thought that was really cute and fun I'll show you guys yeah so I took there's one more so these were all the little inserts that I used and then I kind of like broke it down in a general so first I was like okay what do I want to have and we're gonna do lasagna salad garlic bread apple pie kind of thing and then for breakfast we're gonna do like some type of charcuterie thing so that was like the general and then I broke it down by then I broke it down into the shopping list so that you know I could be organized so this is Christmas dinner and this is Christmas breakfast there's not a lunch because I'll probably make this early and then we'll we'll be full from this so um so yeah and I used it I went and like dotted everything that I got make sure that I had it all on hand so we're ready everything's been complete so I went back to this page a lot for that reason and then another favorite page of mine this one really was a breakthrough is probably a stretch of a word okay but I'm very much a matchy-matchy person and I don't like to color outside the lines like I'm very like that kind of person so mixing different colors and patterns and things is very hard for me so I just really liked how this turned out like it's very much giving me retro vintage Christmas and I just felt really proud of this page there's a pocket here and this is actually the cover of something that came on a an Italian cake panettone so um I just cut this image and then I glued it in created a pocket up here and then I just added some ribbons and trimmings just to kind of like make it pop and then over here this is a Dollar Tree piece of fabric I love this every time I like go pop in a Dollar Tree and I see it I'll just like grab one more because I want to use this for Valentine's Day as well for my Valentine's Day junk Journal um then I added like little bows this also has a little tuck spot in here which is really cute and then this is a pocket and then I added like so that's kind of what it looks like so then I added a bunch of little pieces Another Dollar Tree bag another little card which I wrote this was December 9th so I wrote what I did that day you know kind of like a memory diary-ish this little card from Dollar Tree I didn't see it this year but maybe you did so I don't know if that one's like retired this is a Dollar Tree little bat um box thing like a party favor but I keep it flat and I use it as like a pocket so and I just liked the mix of everything the mix of the the polka dots and the squares and the metallics so I really love this page and then this is actually a Dollar Tree gift tag and I I just I just thought it went and then I added some ribbon down here and then this page just didn't turn out sometimes they just don't I don't know I even went back and added more stuff and I was kind of like ah it had potential but it didn't really do anything for me so probably my least favorite page and the whole thing here's another one that I really liked I really start using this like polka dot thing because I just really liked this red polka dot um and oops there we go so I like that I put it on this pink bag again from Dollar Tree so I've got the pocket here and then we've got this pocket back here and then we have the pocket in here and then just doing some more vintage this is what I wrote I wrote on the back of that and then this is another Dollar Tree little favor box and I just did some aging on it and yeah so I was really trying to mix patterns and colors and then this is a huge card from Dollar General or Family Dollar I don't remember where this card is from um I turn it into a huge pocket and then inside there's a bunch of things so more little bags cards a snack I had that day and then this is a family card I got in the mail so put that in there this beautiful pink trim honestly also sealed the deal when I was doing this page I was just kind of looking at the pink in this present and then when I added this trim from Dollar Tree I just feel like it completed the whole page this was a fun one this was one we did on a live and yeah it just has this like snowy scene it has this little function here which I really like and then all of these little cards I wrote on the back of the ice skater one and then these little cards they're so cute um so I really liked this page I didn't know where I was headed and it just turned out so well and then someone on the live suggested the little red bows that I've been using all throughout like you'll see there's a lot of consistency so I feel like it all still goes together and someone was like put it on the lamp post and I was just like oh my God it's genius there's a I created a side tuck on this one and then I created this little piece here and you can slip stuff and then this is another uh Shaker card has like the phone booth and it's all the same like scrapbook paper so it had that kind of theme and then the plaid and then the ribbon so you just like tuck it in here like that and then this is from Dollar Tree it's just a little gift tag I don't know I just thought it went you know it it's not quite the exact colors but for some reason I just feel like it fit perfectly on this page and then these are Dollar Tree um ornaments I love I loved when I did this this was really cute then we have a more fun little page um my inspiration was this book from Dollar Tree A Christmas Carol and at this point you can see like at this point we're getting towards the back of my notebook and it's getting harder to decorate it so what I ended up doing was I ended up saying okay one one page per day so 13th 14th so because at this point I was just like oh I don't want to start another Journal um because I had already yeah it was a whole thing so I just I just started going with that this is actually an envelope this pink piece right here is an envelope from Dollar Tree here's that bag or that polka dot again I cut it though I cut it a little shorter to make it fit and then I created these little scenes from the book and then inside is like where inside is where I would write so here's an example these are like Dollar Tree window clings my intention wasn't really I mean I love Dollar Tree and obviously it's like my main part of this channel but my intention wasn't to like purposefully make this all Dollar Tree I mean not everything's Dollar Tree but it just uh in my opinion that's how good Dollar Tree is like I just found myself grabbing for the Dollar Tree things I mean you guys saw my spread on the table it was insane so yeah a little pocket in here the cover was just so pretty and vibrant okay then we do this page which I actually really like this page now it when I completed the live it wasn't looking like this and it just seemed like some things were missing so that's when I went back and added these bows and this is ribbon from Dollar Tree and then it kind of has this like accordion thing but it's crazy how I just like look it just stays up there and this is from a Dollar Tree lunch sack and then I took the Dollar Tree wrapping paper from the Grinch and I cut out these little like scenes because the wrapping paper looks like this this is what the wrapping paper looks like and so I would see this one I just went and cut it and turned it into a card I did the same thing with her like there's that and then the same with this one which is that scene right there yeah and then I created these little like pockets let me get these also and then I took the wrapping paper put in the back and then this plastic piece over it it's actually from like Dollar Tree wrapping like um from one of those like window clings you know how your stuff comes in the plastic wrapping I just use the plastic wrapping and glued it to the side and then I did another one of these little boxes I just thought it needed something pink um originally I wanted this this um I wanted this more pink than it is because I wanted to play off of her little pink dress and then I had these little tags from Walmart and I think I just like threw it in there so whatever it's fun experimenting now then we have this page which this page is still not done I had a whole different vision for it but I knew when I bought this car from Walmart I knew instantly that I wanted to do a page that looked like it had lights had Clark's face on it and then my favorite line in the entire movie this is my favorite line I mean there's so many lines in this movie they just don't stop every line is a good line and but don't throw me down Clark just it gets me every damn time with that that grandma she just kills me um so originally the plan I wanted here was I wanted this to be kind of covered I wanted to do this effect with the the flip up so I want to do a flip up on both sides so kind of imagine this scenario here and one half would be half of um it would be Clark's house you know with all the lights on it it would be one big picture of Clark's house but I would have to split it in two and then when you flip them you would you would see this essentially um so I never end up finishing that we'll see if I do and then I wrote on the back of that so so anyways that's that's that then we come to this page which this was the page I started on the last slide and I didn't know where it was headed and after the live this is what I ended up doing to it I took the this window cling and I just started putting stuff everywhere because realistically I just this page didn't end up inspiring me and I ran into a creative brick wall and that's okay like I think it's important to not put pressure on yourself and so I realized this I was like you know what what do I like that's sitting on this table and I really liked the window clings I was like let me just throw it all over the place and that's what I did this is from a Dollar Tree gift bag this little tree thing and then these are Dollar Tree window clings and then somebody suggested I turn these into presents and they're actually little side tuck pockets so I did that but yeah this page just it just didn't it just didn't do it for me now we're coming to um dare I say this page is my favorite like dare I say this is my number one number one page but I I can't with the color palette here this is something I would never do in my past life like I just I would never have thought to do anything like this um and this yeah see like look at this page I just I'm obsessed and I ended up using this fabric again I just loved it so much I knew I wanted to reuse it one thing led to another I actually started making these and then just one thing led to another it all just kind of came together so we created a little pocket here I think it even has yeah we have some pop no this one is in a pocket yeah these aren't Pockets I just flat out glued it down and then I had to also reuse the popcorn bag again because I just love this popcorn bag from Dollar Tree so much I love this fabric too this fabric Swatch it's everything it just I don't know why but I get elves from it and I really like it so then the popcorn bag had to make another appearance and then I did some aging on these little like poster cards and yeah and then this was really cute because I turned it into a little booklet so this was like empty I had already torn all of the pages that came with it and then I reinstalled this little like notebook system into it and so I went with this I got this little all of these little ephemera pieces you see here is actually from a collection that I bought on peachycheap.com so like this baking and then that whisk and then the carton of eggs super cute and then I added this little postcard on top and then I did some Washi and yeah I thought that was really adorable and that just kind of goes here and then the really it's the combination of the fabric the plaid and then this blue and the blue is actually from a Dollar Tree little mini like micro planner and it just made it so freaking special so then I made this giant card and I turned it into this little Velcro thing so then when you open it I used more of the blue of what I had left so use scraps don't be afraid of using your scraps and keeping your scraps because like this is the look of a junk Journal you know it's like random things I wanted to use the fabric again so I create a little pocket and then another little postcard which I forgot to age and then I tore this page out of a book that I thrifted and then I did some aging on it and it just has like cookies it's from a little recipe book I just really liked it because the whole theme is baking so I thought it was really cute you know so I kind of like that so adorable and then here's the cover I just put a bunch of the ephemera I actually these are Dollar Tree cards um and I was making them as like Standalone and then I decided to glue them on top of this this is this is my number one personally like voting on this and then I decided I was like how do I want to attach it and you know what sometimes you don't have to you know permanently attach things so I just took some Dollar Tree paper clips in this blue color and it just kind of like slips right in and that's the page and I think these two are like super special they're so cute I love the bright red and I think that's what really makes all this stand out is just kind of still bringing in the color palette so anyways then the very last page I just did not get to really finish but and it looks like I have some gluing that needs to be done but essentially this was a yeah look like that just literally popped right off so this also didn't work out the way I wanted it to um this is like a bag from Dollar Tree and then I wanted it in the center because I didn't want it to block that so I just when I was moving this around I was like okay let me put this pocket in the center and then I created these which I think these are really cute these are window clings from Dollar Tree and then this ribbon which I used before in the beginning this from Walmart and then yeah so it you know want one it didn't work out but I'm okay with that like you know honestly sometimes that's also this the charm as well like because it's all about like whatever experience you have if that makes sense and at that point when I got to this like look at this when I got to this level I thought this isn't workable anymore um so and I was just like do I really want to start a whole new journal for like two more days and the answer was just no for me um I just kind of put put in my mind like okay learning process we know what to do for my next junk Journal will be my Valentine's Day Journal so I'll actually be let's see one two three I'll probably honestly do like six or seven pages which seems ridiculous but like I'm gonna love having multiple journals anyways so I'll have multiple multiple journals and I think that will also be fun because then I'll get a lot of opportunity to do different covers if that makes sense so then I have all these little pom-poms from Dollar Tree I I've been talking about these pom-poms for years if you know you know 10 out of 10. like just it doesn't even matter um and they are so pretty I mean honestly I can randomly put them anywhere although they don't go on those pages but whatever I think this one here I think this little tree went on this page but and then these these were really fun to make it has a little like vintage what page was this for it was this page so yeah so I have a little Nutcracker too he hangs off of one of these little little things but that's officially yeah and you can Jazz up anything you're right Dolly you can draw as a paper clips anything in here it's just yeah so that is the and this was really my first junk Journal where I made it like this thick I if you watch Rebecca hoot um she has a different style of journaling and I absolutely love it and I want to do I want to share a journal like that as well um like her style um and that will turn out a little not as thick as this FYI so if you just kind of like don't like how much gluing and stuff was going on don't let that don't let this deter you if it's like not up your alley go watch Rebecca Hoots and you might like her style more there's so many different ways you can do stuff so there's that and then this is my next junk Journal kit it is going to still be labeled a mystery um not every kid is going to be equal so if you wanted to like order multiples which I've had someone order multiples um you will essentially get different things like I when people order multiples I try to make sure they're they're getting different stuff some things are like Staples that I do but I do try to make them very different from one another but they come out January 1st and this is going to be like the vibe of my junk Journal it's going to be very colorful and you guys have been asking for color from me because I don't decorate and color her I don't dress in color but these journals are yeah so these are some of the first kits that I've pre-packaged so you guys are getting to see what that looks like and it's so cute like I'm so proud of this kit and I'm so excited um so yeah that's that's going to be today's live um color is very good you're absolutely right no I when did I really feel like I had a switch in color there was one specific thing that I saw and it might have been those napkins as weird as I think it was I think it was this napkin right here in particular This Joy when I saw this Joy I don't know something just like something changed in my my brain um and I've been like loving and obsessing over pink kinda ever since so and that led me to this release so I'm so excited for it so cute I'm also there's also gonna be other things part of this release as well um well not included in this but you can buy it off my Etsy shop and I will be um decorating journals so these don't actually come with journals this time they just come with the kit for your Journal but if you want to purchase a journal from me I'll actually be kind of custom making them so there's that the past lives didn't know they did not go away um they should definitely still be on my channel from my perspective there's a lives tab in my in my YouTube Studio where I edit um I think from y'all's perspective I think it's just like in chronological order when they post yeah that's that's why I didn't decide to put the journal in this because I was just like you know what a journal is also very um like personal and you could have a specific Journal you like to work with and journals can also tend to not tend from my experience with doing all this they just added to the weight um for mailing so I was just like you know what I'm not going to do the journal on this release but if you wanted a journal I'm going to create them and they'll just be a separate item that you can buy so I didn't want you to have to like get a journal that you potentially might not have wanted to work with if that makes sense so so yeah the lives aren't visible for you that's they should be they definitely should be um they're they're set to public so uh I will link them down below on this video so you you could go back and click on them from from here so but you won't see the description until I'm done with this live and I can get it up and going but yeah so that is it I'm very excited to like get into this now this journal for me personally will probably run from January to April like it's going to be because for me this whole kit isn't a one holiday thing so this kit is going to run for a while unless I completely sell out and it's not just like Valentine's Day so it's going to be January February March April it also has a very spring eastery effect to it as well so it's just a I actually really don't know what to title this quite yet I'm still like going back and forth on the title but it's not specifically just Valentine's Day FYI okay wait am I on the wrong oh my gosh should I start a live on the wrong Channel LOL that's very that's very possible because on my phone sometimes I flip back and forth and I might not have known where I was been so yay me oh I'm on the Vlog Channel oh I didn't know that oopsie uh when I upload it I think I'll try to switch it and put it and post on the other that explains it explains why you can't see it here it's on my other channel um I actually almost said that in the last slide I was like oh I was like I'm on the wrong Channel and then I just it just I guess it completely slipped my mind um oh that makes me sad because I bet people from my other channel are wondering where this video is but oh well um so there we go that's gonna be it for today I'm gonna go ahead and let Loki out I hope you guys liked the flip through um yeah but I'm I'm excited I'm excited to have learned from this one and for like the next the next slides the next flip throughs like hopefully they just get a lot better but let's go to the other channel girl oh yeah Loki probably wouldn't be very happy right now he's probably like why am I not on this video but anyways I hope you guys have a merry Christmas too I can't believe it's Christmas Eve Eve happy holidays um thank you for the birthday wishes by the way that's so nice look I got some flowers look how big like what so pretty I will definitely give Loki a smooch for you but yeah oh these flowers are perfection the color combo love it um so I'm oh also since we're on the Vlog Channel just to let you guys know at five o'clock Central Time I my book review is getting posted and it's long it's an hour-long video so if you just need an hour-long video it's coming at five o'clock I don't even know what time it is right now but um probably like it's probably gonna be in an hour or so it's probably still three or something but um but yeah so I want to get back to reading because I did a book review on hockey hockey romance you guys and it is so good so if you love my book reviews or you just like love the kind of books that I've been talking about reading about and if I put you on the blue barbarians you might like the hockey books you might like the hockey books so um yeah it's offside and Icebreaker so good I have no words but yeah so I'm gonna go read is the point of this whole conversation and I'm gonna go let this video upload I'm probably going to switch it and upload it to my other channel FYI just in case is it smutty it's not it's a romance novel so it has definitely has scenes it has spicy scenes but I don't think it's like I would classify the blue Barbarian books are smutty for sure I don't know if I would necessarily classify the hockey ones that way um but maybe like I don't really know what the true classification is but like yeah there it is yeah if if it's not your thing just read over it um the hockey is good enough that like it has it has an actual like storyline you know whereas kind of like the blue Barbarian aliens like you're you're there for this one like there's just there's no oops are you oh am I still alive oh my phone rang you just read the prize and you love it are you talking about Julie Garwood because that is my favorite one of my favorite historical romance novels of all time hockey is more your style than aliens Marcia start with offside start with offside for sure um or Icebreaker honestly like I don't really know they're they're both actually yeah I honestly I can't say they're similar but it's like hockey players kind of thing anyways there's that oh my gosh y'all I listen to the story it's so freaking hilarious I have to whisper it because Micah's gonna hear me she's gonna get mad and it cracks me up this is actually a true story so I don't remember what conversation we were having she was upstairs and I was down here and we were going back and forth but she said something about I think like oh I think she was like oh you know I want to go to hockey games and oh hockey hockey players and I said okay I said but you should know that a lot of them don't have their teeth and she was just like oh my God like that's not true she she was shooting me down hard on it I was laughing we were both laughing and I was just like no it's true she's like well they have mouth guards now I was like Micah they've had mouth guards for a really long time why do you think they have them I said but it's still kinda happens and she was like oh my God and so I had to tell her a story I had to tell her the story of when I went to a Dallas yes it's true thank you I went to a Dallas Stars hockey game a couple years ago and I you not I had Windows rink seats or like on the glasses did they call it glass seats or whatever but like where they come they Smash Up on it and I'm sitting there y'all and the hockey players come out they hit the ice they're warming up and it was the opposing team I I don't remember what team it was um and a guy come skating by locks eyes with me smiles and then pulls out his teeth and smiles again with none of his teeth he had not he had none of his teeth in his mouth and he did it like he was being a d i c k and I looked I was at the date I looked at my date and I was like what yes yes this is this this happened and I was just like oh no he had no teeth honey it wasn't like a tooth missing it was the whole the whole thing was not there and um I told Micah the story she's like oh she's like oh my God and that happened in the 90s I was like no you were like 17. so it's so hilarious but anyways um Patricia I'm a second that is it's gonna be a hard note for me too but you know what though oh oh and then Micah was like oh well they can have like they can have implants put in I was like no no they can't actually they have to literally wear fake if they get their teeth knocked out at this point they're gonna wear dentures because they can't have their implants knocked out like no like if you want to go on a date with your hockey player just know that it could it could be a removable part that's all I'm telling you nothing wrong with that just giving you the heads up so her reaction was up she she could not accept that that's true so um so yeah also yeah stay warm you guys this weather is super crazy it is like 19 degrees here he oh he will be taking his teeth out he'll be like you know what let me not catfish you plop smile like that's the guy that y'all I i s the the memory of this hockey player doing this to me is literally burned in my mind the only thing that's not burned in my mind was his jersey number because if I could remember his jersey number or his team I would have looked it up and told y'all who it was but I don't remember who we went up against I want to say like gut instincts some like penguins but like I don't know I don't I don't remember I don't even know that like I pasted like I don't even know if I posted it like on a Facebook thing you know memory you can go back but anyways crazy that this guy did this and he locked eyes with me so I know he saw my reaction what was the point of that like why do you do that that's the craziest thing it was like ballsy it was ballsy of him but anyhow um more than Mercy okay guys I'm gonna go I had fun my bad for posting on the wrong Channel um oh for the shock fact oh yeah yeah it was just so unnecessary though you know yeah he was being a d he because the way he smiled at me was like it was not like a hey it was more like a ffu which was so weird because they literally had the ice was empty and then the team jumps out on the ice and they start skating warming up and he jumped out of the box and like so this is me right here right and then the box is here so they come out he kind of swings around like this and as he's swinging and about to pass me he's he smiles here and we lock eyes we lock eyes right about here he smiles and then he takes out his teeth and then oh my God oh my God I wish this wasn't a true story it sounds ridiculous okay anyways the end foreign okay well I had fun I hope you guys loved the Christmas junk journaling I hope it was fun I hope it got you kind of into it I hope if anything like you just liked watching it I don't know and it just made you feel comfortable I don't know I don't know I don't know what I'm saying but um I've never been more excited to do this jump Journal so um just know
