No more accidentally shocking my laptop, omg that’s scary isn’t it, like a punch of panic straight to the chest. 

Nice and crisp.

I Sharpie’d out the logo.

 

 

Tiiiiis the Season for Natural Disguises

Fa-la-la-la-laaa lala get some.

It’s a Christmas wreath, obscuring the licence plate.

Jokes aside, scammers love this time of year.  People’s hearts are more giving and trusting than usual, because tis the season, and that makes is easier to prey on them.

Stay wary during the holidays… careful what you click, because phishing emails and social media scams; people canvasing for “charity” on the street, and on the phone; you get what I mean.

I Shutdown ‘Keri’s Annual Christmas Extravaganza’

I loved doing it, and loved how much I learned doing it. But, it’s a big deal, logistically and time wise, and when I sat down to get started this year, something stopped me.

I was like wait wait, what am I doing here… I don’t even really like Christmas, or contests … aside from the annual aspect, what do I even like here? Nothing. Done.

The annual part though, I’m going to morph into something, that part I love.  I can’t wait to type “The 3rd Annual Lalala”.

I’ve always wanted to throw a massive party. And give away a car, like, how I get a car to test for a week, you would too.

RIP the blog tag, ‘Keri’s Christmas Extravaganza‘.

 

 

A Christmas Extravaganza Update

Remember in December, when 2 people won the

2nd Annual Keri’s Christmas Extravaganza?

(warning: page is huge)

My favourite winner Glenn just sent me these pics of the prizes in action.

Here’s the Meduiar’s Headlight Restoration Kit.

Even a kid can use it.

That’s not a photo op; Glenn’s daughter really did buff a headlight. Good work, missy!

All photos were taken with a Samsung Galaxy. Thanks, TELUS!

I’ve known Glenn in real life forever, but until his ballot was drawn, I had zero clue he’s been reading my blog the whole time.

Thank you Glenn, the timing and sentiment of this was awesome. Might be typing this with misty eyes. If I wasn’t a ROBOT.
