I love the Fall season, but it ruins it when it keeps raining. I can't believe how much rain we have recently gotten. I want to enjoy the Fall season before it begins to snow. I took advantage of the weather yesterday and stepped out to the deck and recorded the beautiful woods behind our house. The leaves changing color and falling, it was really breathtaking in my opinion, but I am biased. Oh yes Happy Halloween!! I decided to do my face up lol. Well first time trying to do a Sugar Skull look, to say the least it didn't come out as I had wanted. I was so very unprepared. I have to say I did have fun doing it, it was an experience I would like to make better next year. With better makeup rather than the cheap stuff I picked up at the last minute thinking it would work lol. It is a joke but I did the best I could. I definitely Continue Reading

GhostBed Luxury Sheet Set ~ Silky Goodness!
I can't tell you how excited I am to tell you about this GhostBed Luxury Sheet Set. After placing my order, it arrived rather quickly. Per usual, I like to take some time to try the product before I decide on how I feel about it. I can tell you right now, I wish I had these at the beginning of Summer! When my package arrived, it was raining cats and dogs, the mailman didn't put the box in a plastic bag which kind of bothered me as they usually do and it is not a huge box. I brought it in, soaked and wet, but so excited to see what it was like. I immediately open it to make sure the sheet set didn't get wet. I was glad to see it didn't. As it was wrapped in a plastic bag (pictured below). I love that! I am so happy because the box would have gotten soaked sitting outside in the rain. I've struggled to find a sheet set that is Continue Reading

Getting Back On Track
What do I mean by back on track? Well as you can see I haven't posted anything since May, and that was an unfinished post. Why is that? Honestly just life, and the fact I didn't want to hold myself accountable for the weight I put back on. And yes I did put it all back on, all 100 lbs, sad right :( It is sad because I had hoped that wouldn't have happened. Read my past posts to understand why. It is October, and there is a lot going on. Last year and this year has been pretty crazy for us here. Back in April, we had some bad weather, and a tree fell on part of our deck, it really only took out the stairs, thank goodness. We never expected this tree to fall it completely took out our stairs going to the back yard, to date we have not had it rebuilt as other things came up. Yeah, we were not expecting this to happen, we were Continue Reading
