I have been asking myself lately whether it is my age or the extra weight my small frame is carrying around, that has really exhausted me from a few hours of shopping on Saturday and makes me think I need a tummy tuck. Today actually, we did our rounds at a few stores, and then headed home, we were out I would say maybe about 4 hours. If I wasn't typing and trying to write a blog, I probably could lay down, not sure if I will sleep, as I don't like taking naps, I feel it messes with my night rest. However, lately my girls have woke me several times during the night, and they are relentless until they get what they want. So I get up and oblige so that my fiance can sleep, as he is the one that gets up early to go to work. So all that is making me tired throughout the week, and by the time Saturday arrives, I am in no mood to go Continue Reading
Hollar & Dollar1 Hauls – Are they worth it?
I like to save money where ever I can, using coupons, buying online, and I do both happily. I have been buying from Dollar1.com and hollar.com for a few months now. I am really happy with my purchases. I have received broken items from Hollar before, and they gladly replace it with no hassle. In my recent purchase from Dollar1.com, I bought some EOS lip balms for $1 each. Now that is a fantastic deal, however, upon opening the sweet mint I detected a stale smell which I was not happy with. I have emailed dollar1.com and hope to have my money returned or the item replaced, I doubt the item will be replaced because they are no longer on the website. As I am sure they get the items before the due date and try to quickly sell them out, which they do. The expiration date on the packaging states 2017/10 so in essence, it is still good, but the Continue Reading
Gel Wraps VS Foil Wraps VS Foil & Cotton Pads – Which is better?
I love to do my own nails, and in between doing my own nails. I will apply fake full nails for a week or two for fun, and to allow my nails to grow out, without adding gels or acrylics, because I tend to cut my natural nails very very short to allow growing time, and getting rid of bad areas or damaged let's say :) So I go visit my local Dollar Tree store, and pick up a few cute patterns, and simply glue them on.Well removing hair and not harming skin is now much easier with the use of technology.You can read more here about. Removing them, must be done by soaking off, and not pulling them off, because you will tear away layers of your own natural nail, and that thins them out considerably. In addition to giving my nails time in between, I have 2 cats in my home, whom I do not wish to subject to the fumes of the chemicals that acrylic Continue Reading
Day 38! Success in 30 Days!
I am so happy to report that after 30 days (even though today is day 38 lol). That I lost 28 lbs juicing! I am so so happy, but oh so very hard. Omgosh. I got to the point of feeling depressed, and I didn't like that feeling. I read that would pass, but it didn't so when my next 30 days started, we agreed with my fiance that I would do one meal in the evening with him. So with Valentine's Day approaching, I wanted to spend that time not worrying too much about what I ate. So we had a nice weekend, we had Subway, and then on Valentine's Day, he made an amazing dinner. So, because of that, this week, I am only juicing, to make up for the weekend, and the 2 lbs I gained :( BUT hey I am just glad I am able to juice and get back on track. But I did lose those 28 lbs so that is something. I have taken pictures of what I have been juicing, Continue Reading
BBQ’s and Sunny Day!
Happy Memorial Day everyone! Well here we are, another one passing us. I want to thank all those who have served and are serving to keep us free and safe. Without you, who knows what our great nation would be like. I won't get into what can be done to make things better, this isn't the time for it. It is a time for remembering and honoring our heros. Today we had a nice BBQ just me and my awesome honey, William. It was a very nice day. During the day I was working on my mani, up until it was time to have our meal. Then we enjoyed each other's company and watched some TV. Over the weekend we went and did a bit of shopping, it was a really nice weekend, it was so nice to be able to have some sun, I am hoping for a lot more during this Spring/Summer season. I hope to be able to get out and go to the Drive-in theater, they are so Continue Reading
