Wow, I think I may have actually gotten enough sleep. It’s a whole new world!
I treated El Hub to an Orange Dream Machine Jamba Juice yesterday and got myself a Blackberry Bliss — have you tried? They’re pretty new and sooo good!
Right now it’s MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural. I love that it doesn’t look heavy or obvious on my skin.
Not really my cup of tea but it depends. It would take a hellavu great personality to make up for uncomfortably tight boy jeans, product-laden hair and guy liner.
Nothing yet, but I’m thinking Too Faced Natural Eye Kit on my eyes; not sure about my cheeks or lips yet.
When people (ahem, El Hub!) use the last of the toilet paper without replacing it with a fresh roll! Drives me BONKERS.
“Send my love; we’re at some random water park.”
Vegas, baby, in October!
I’m still in my jammies — a pair of white shorts and a Makeup and Beauty Blog t-shirt.
Remember to focus on the positive, exercise at LEAST twice, lay off the cookies (so hard!), and remember to have a little fun every single day.
Good mornin’, sunshine. 🙂
I hope your week got off to a good start. Mine has, but I still feel a little distracted by something…
I’ve kinda been feeling like hamster in a wheel, like I’ve been going through the motions, doing the same things over and over again. Do ever feel that way, like you’re stuck in a rut?
Anyway, if you can think of anything that might help me change my perspective, let me know. 🙂
Before you zip away, take a second to check in.
Talk to you soon!

Hey karen, totally know what you mean about the rut. I find that some things are unavoidably “rutty”, but I try to mix it up sometimes by going for an impromptu dinner out on, say, Tuesday instead of the weekend, or something comparable. or a wednesday night picnic dinner by lake with my boyfriend (if $$$ is tight, which it is). or, as cliche as it sounds, i try to think of all the people suffering, whether it be for loss of job or what have you, that would kill just to have consistency. kwim? sometimes it helps, sometimes i still feel shi**y, but hey, heres to trying 🙂
Have a good week everyone!!
