Trees, Planners and in search of this here box!

We put our tree up on Sunday. I lost 2 ornaments courtesy our lovely hard floor :( 

I smashed my 2008 Where the Wild Things Are 

and a vintage camera ornament that I got from world market last year. BOO BOO and BOO!

Ok moving on... 

Have you ever loved a purchase so much, that when you wore it out, and went to replace it, you couldn't find it anywhere? 

TRUE STORY

Case in point see below..

I bought my Franklin Covey planner when I graduated from College, from Target. I wasn't so nice to it over the lasting years, and thus it got really beat up with stains on the leather. I tried everything to get them clean, with NO LUCK. Sure, I definitely looked around to replace it with something new over the last 2 years, but as with most things, I'm PICKY! And had yet to ever find one I really liked. 

Fast Forward to present day

I had to reorder my refill Monthly pages for my planner, and I checked on Amazon.

When I typed in Franklin Covey, I was SHOCKED! Low and behold there was my old planner! In MINT condition! How the efff does that happen considering this planner hasn't be available to purchase since 05? 

Fate my friends! 

You bet cha I snatched that baby up right away! 

As much as I love my Iphone and all that it does, I am still very OLD SCHOOL and write down ALL my appointments, scheduling, things to do etc etc in my planner. 

Just as I handwrite all my contacts in my planner to in case one day I were to ever lose my phone, how would I call anyone if they weren't written somewhere to refer to? 

And lastly.....

How many of you have a HomeGoods/marshalls where you live?

How many of you have seen or recently seen this box at one? 

I would LOVE this box in white, but sadly I have checked most of our stores where I live and they don't have it! 

I am usually super good at finding things online SOMEHOW SOMEWHERE VIA the web, but no such luck with this item (and no, it's not a tory burch box as some asked me the other day)

So I thought since many of you shop often, if do you see one of these in white at your local store and trust this here fellow blogger, I would happily drop you a check in the mail for one!!!
