cross one more off

So if you have been reading my blog since the beginning (september!) I have an October Wishlist you can check it out here. I can say tonight that I have crossed off 2/5 things listed. I have a feeling 1 of those things I will just never get (strega nona’s magical cookware), and one of the other things I am obsessing over I will get in due time (canon digital SLR!).

For now, I can say that I have my long puffy down coat! Hurray! It’s going to be sooo great in helping me stay warm this winter in Chicago. I bought it last last friday from REI. They were having their winter sale! It was $79 off. I was very pumped since I had wanted this coat for about 2 going on 3 years now.

Here it is…

Opening the box…

Ahh! Can’t wait to put it on!

Even my cat wants a piece of it! Sparky… you’re already wearing a warm coat…

it’s so long and cozy looking…

wearing it for the first time!

it fits!!! now I have something to keep me warm while I’m away from my bf…So, there it is. Crossing off #2 in November, from my October Wishlist. I’ll be wearing this coat everyday until Spring. Anyone else super pumped like I am when they got their winter coat for this year? (and beyond!)
