life at the end of February 2026

Hello, my bucket list friends! I know I’ve been going back and forth between writing about this year and last year but I decided to write my two main posts about February back to back. I feel like I’m getting more caught up that way by finishing the main part of my February posts first. However after this post I will write another post about August . Now ,that you know my blogging schedule let’s dive into this blog post about life at the end of February.

2/21- On this day I went to Safeway. I got some Barbie surprise eggs. These eggs have cool Barbie themed items inside. I also got a coloring craft kit there. I also went to Walgreens I got some cute duck toys and a squishy toy craft kit. This was a good February day . It was also a beautiful sunny day.

2/22 – I did two art projects on this day! The first project was a simple coloring craft kit. I had fun coloring a cute wooden caterpillar. I love that there were different patterns to color on the craft and not just circles. I love how colorful this craft looked when I was done. This was a very simple craft but I really enjoyed it. The 2nd craft kit that I did was a foam ice cream craft. My favorite part of this kit was the sparkly sprinkles. I had fun sticking them on the ice cream project. Later that day I went to Safeway again and I got a fun package of Easter stickers. I’m happy that I had time to be creative on this day.

2/24 – On this day I went to work. My highlight of my work day was getting to have a cannonball drink. However, After work I finally did something that I had been wanting to do for a long time. I finally applied to be on reality TV. I have no idea if my application will go anywhere. However, I feel good that I was finally brave enough to record a short video and submit it. Even if I never hear back I’m glad I did this.

2/26 on this day I went to the mall and I got a much needed massage. I also went shopping at Claire’s. My favorite thing that I got at Claire’s was a hat with bows on it. I also got some bracelets and earrings there .While I was at the mall I went to The Hallmark store and I got a bunch of stickers. Hallmark is a great place to find cute stickers. I also went to the Target that was attached to the mall. I got some JoyRide candy , erasers shaped like different kinds of food, and more. I also went to Taco Bell in the food court. I put my order under the name Alice because I’m a huge Alice Cooper fan and sometimes it’s fun to use a different name. This was a really good day.

2/27 – This day I got to do something really awesome. I got to see my amazing friend Amy. We went to a bunch of different places including a book store , a toy store , CVS, and Togos. I bought some fun items on this day including a coloring book that came with crayons and stickers, a sheet of animal stickers, a pack of Easter toys, a set of bracelets and more. However, the best part of the day was getting to spend time with Amy. It is a lot harder to spend time with your friends than it should be. I love it when I get time to see a friend so this day was a great day.

2/28 – This was the last day of the month. I went to Walgreens I got some fun Easter Items including a pack of Easter toys and some puffy Peeps stickers. After that I went to Trader Joes. I got a box of my mango bars but I also go some stickers and a coloring page. I ended this short month on a high note.

Thanks for reading about more of mt February moments.

Love, Christina Epperly.

A bunch of random thoughts on a Friday

This is another blog post where I just want to write about whatever random thoughts happen to be on my mind, so here we go!

Yesterday, I went to Safeway, and I got some of my favorite things. I know that it may seem weird to some that I highlight my trips to the grocery store, but I enjoy getting out and shopping even when it is just a normal errand. I think that it is important to enjoy the little things in life. Some of my favorite things that I got were my favorite fruit snacks that come with trading cards, two different brands of juice that come with toys, and an egg dyeing kit that comes with stickers! I’ve been more excited about getting stickers lately, even though I’ve bought tons of stickers in my life.

I got more stickers at work on Tuesday. I bought two different items an egg dye kit and a plastic egg that had candy and stickers in it. The egg dye kit that I got on this day was different than the one I got yesterday, but they both came with stickers.

It is supposed to start raining soon……………. I’m not really looking forward to it. I know that rain is important but I have been enjoying the sun.

One of the juice brands that I collect is called good 2 grow and I recently just found out that they have an app where you can download and use it to keep track of your collection and earn badges. If you collect good 2 grow, I recommend using this app.

I’ve been listening to audio books lately, but I haven’t actually been reading much, and I know that I need to get back into that, but audio books seem to be a lot less expensive. When I want to read a specific book, especially a new one, I will get an audio book to save money.

I’ve been getting more pictures printed lately. I have so many photos that are digital, and I think it is a good idea to get them printed. I recently got a bunch of pictures printed from when I was a teenager since most of the pictures that I have from that time are all digital.

Thanks for reading my random thoughts!

A surprise friend hang out and more happy things!

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’ve had some really good days this week, and I hope you did as well. I wanted to share some of the good things that I’ve experienced this week, so let’s get to it.

Monday, March 11th – On this day, I bought some really cool things from work, including a set of gel pens that I have been wanting  to get for a while now. I also got a plush basket that has plush toys in it, a bead kit, some stickers, and juice that has toys on top! Another thing I bought on this day was skin tag removal patches. I have this skin tag by my eye that has been bothering me, so I’m excited to finally get rid of it.

Tuesday,  March 12th – On this day, I had the day off. I didn’t have any plans, but it turned out to be a really great day. My amazing friend called me and asked if I wanted to hang out. I was immediately excited to see her! Our first stop was going to my favorite local thrift store. At first I didn’t find anything but then I saw a bag of stickers for a dollar. After that, I began finding more items, including bags of beads , a teddy bear , a dinosaur toy, and a Barbie doll. After that, my friend and I went to the candy store. This is one of my favorite places to go with my friends. My friend and I also went to one of our favorite restaurants for dinner. This day was truly amazing! I love it when I get to spend a day with a friend.

Wednesday, March 13th – I had work on this day, and of course, I bought something else that I had my eye on at work. A bunny Play-Doh set. I also got two little notebooks that were on sale.

Thursday,  March 14th – Another work day, but I went to Safeway before going to work. I’ve gotten really into using coupons on the Safeway app, and it has saved me a lot of money. I got some of my favorite food items at Safeway, including my favorite fruit snacks that come with trading cards. I also got a large pack of gum that comes in a plastic refillable case. That was something that I had been wanting to get, so I got it when I saw it in the self checkout area. After Safeway, it was time for work. For some reason, work has been very busy this week, and today was no different. I was doing a lot of multi-tasking throughout the day. I bought this headband on my break that I had  been wanting to get. I was gonna get some scented markers that are the same brand that I had when I was a kid, but we were sold out, however I did get a set of colorful pens that were on sale instead. I also got more mini note books.

I hope that your week has been full of happiness!

My amazing life this week

Hello, my bucket list friends I’m going to be honest. I’m really loving my life right now. There is something so beautiful about not having to wake up to an alarm clock and rush out the door. This week is so normal and so special at the same time. I already wrote about my Monday ( You can read about it HERE) I thought it would be fun to write a little something about each of my days this week. I do this a lot for weekends. However, this week is different then how my weeks have been so I decided the weekdays needed a blog post this week.

Tuesday- I went into my new job at Urban Remedy! I have really grown to be a huge fan of selfcare and this company is all about self care and health. I’m so happy to be working here!

Wednesday- This day was so amazing that it also got its own blog post! ( You can read about it HERE) The highlights of this day were seeing my wonderful friend, going to a local thrift store and getting my nails done. I also published a post on Vocal Media.

Thursday- I shared my vocal media post on my social media and it got a pretty good response. You can read it HERE) That night I went to Starbucks and Walgreens. At Walgreens I got a few things including popcorn, a drink and lip balm from Burts Bees.

Friday- I went into my job at Urban Remedy to do some training. It went really well. I’m really happy that I got a job here. After work I went to Whole Foods. I got some yummy stuff there including a box of my favorite fruit snacks that come with these cool trading cards.

Thanks for reading about my week!

A CPR class and lots of coffee

Hello, my bucket list friends! Another weekend is almost gone. This weekend went by really fast overall. Yesterday, I did an eight hour CPR class that I needed for work. It was slow at some points but it was very informative. I got coffee that morning before the class and after the class I went to Starbucks again. After Starbucks I went to Whole Foods and then Taco Bell.I spent the rest of the night relaxing Then that brings us to today. I took it pretty easy today. I wrote another article for Vocal Media and did some shopping for the week ahead. Oh and I got coffee today too. I’m sure that before I know it I’ll be writing a post about next weekend! Have a great week!

I love my Tie-dye crocs and other things on my mind! :)

Hello, my bucket list friends! Sometimes I have a bunch of things that I  want to write about but I can’t think of a way to put them all together. This is one of those times so I figured I would do one of those posts where I talk about all the things that are on my mind at the moment. Without further introduction let’s jump on in!!

I love my Tie-dye crocs – let’s start off  with the title. I got my second pair of crocs recently. I ordered them from Poshmark. They are used but the seller said she only wore them when she worked at an ice cream store so they are still in pretty good shape. Plus they were a lot less expensive then a new pair of crocs would be. I love the bright colors! I think crocs are my new favorite shoe. I also bought new new purse from the same seller I needed a bigger one and this one she had was absolutely perfect!

I finally won a raffle prize at the Firemen’s BBQ- I have been going been going to this fundraiser since I was a kid. In addition to the BBQ they always have a raffle. I’ve tried many times to win a raffle prize but I never did until Sunday. I ended up winning two prizes a Disney princess doll and a gift certificate to a local toy store. They did have an American Girl doll that I really wanted to win but unfortunately I didn’t but I’m happy that I won something.

I’m getting two America girl dolls!! – Even though I didn’t win the American Girl doll at the raffle,I did win an Ebay auction for two American Girl dolls. I’m so excited for them to get here. They are hopefully gonna be delivered today! When they arrive I will officially have four American Girl dolls.

I’m reorganizing my room – Being a collector can be hard when you only have one room for everything! However I’m currently working on reorganizing and I hope to do a room tour post once I get everything how I want it. I’ve ordered some storage things from Amazon and they should be here this week. I can’t wait to show you my room!

I’m trying to write more on Vocal Media – I started writing on Vocal Media this year and I love it. I have written a few short stories and some articles on there and I would love for you to check them out. You can see my profile HERE

Thanks so much for reading!!

Rock On- Christina Epperly
