monday list

1. Mood:
excited. OMG! i'm so excited to be going home for thanksgiving! =D

2. Your favorite Thanksgiving entrée or side?
dressing. i could get a plate full of dressing and be a happy girl! mmmm... as long as it doesn't have any boiled eggs or any bread that isn't cornbread, i'm good! why would you make dressing with just regular bread or boiled eggs? that's just grody.

3. What’s one thing — beauty related — you feel thankful for?
moisturizer. without it my face would be a big flaky mess.

4. What’s one thing — non-beauty related — you feel thankful for?
love. unconditional love.

5. What’s been the biggest surprise for you so far this year?
you know, honestly i shouldn't be surprised by this at all, but how some people never change is just mind blowing. i should know better.

6. When was the last time you were the recipient of a random act of kindness?
today actually. one of my online pals is going to host my website! i get my own domain and i'm moving to wordpress! yay! soon. not today. i have tons going on this week, so probably in the next few weeks. i'm excited. wp has changed so much since i've been out of the blogging world!

7. Gloves or mittens?
fingerless gloves! FTW!

8. What’s one thing you do to keep yourself motivated?
i try to keep organized as much as possible. it helps to keep things running smoothly and that makes me go! go! go!

9. Have you ever been to one of your high school reunions?
hell no and no thank you.

10. Weekly goals:
spend as much time as i can with my family! try not to be such a hermit while i'm visiting! go visit my inlaws! and my daddy!!! eat!! drink!! laugh!!! dance!!! and have tons of FUN!!! yay!!!

my mar mar

we love and miss her so much! 

retail therapy

did a little retail therapy today. not too much. just a little tiny bit. I was completely out of mac fluidline (1) so i stopped by the mac counter at dillards over at first colony mall. I also picked up an eyeshadow in knight divine (2). it looked pretty and i don't really have a shimmery grey. i have shimmery purple grey, but not a grey grey. and i also got a paint pot in soft ocher (3). i used to use urban decay primer potion, but it dried out then i got a tube of too faced primer stuff at ulta for $9! i don't like it as much as the UDPP. i dunno why? i think the UDPP works better. so i'm gonna give this paint pot a try. hopefully it works a lil better than the too faced crap.

then we headed over to target and i got myself a white wife beater (4). i love those target wife beaters! they're long and so comfy. i needed a white one to wear under cardigans/sweaters. and i also picked up an elf angled liner brush (5), which i LOVE. and they're only $3! i can't wait to use my mac fluid line now! i missed it and i find that it's the only eyeliner that goes on black, stays black and stays in my water line! most black eyeliners turn blueish and i hate that. and i seriously hate pencil liners. sharpening is such a hassle and i've literally cut myself on my eye with the wood part! not fun.

then i had to stop at walmart because sophia needed a binder and they didn't really have anything at target. i usually complain about going to walmart because it sucks in there and it's always so hot, but i'm glad we did because i found the kardashian nail polishes!!! i only picked up the 2 i really wanted. Khloe had a little lam lam (6) and kim-pletely in love (7). they're both sooo pretty! i can't wait to use them!

and that's it. very much needed retail therapy! what have you bought for yourself lately? anything good? do share!

i should be getting a new memory card for my point and shoot so i can get some better pics up here. i lost the memory card over 4th of july weekend! i wish i could find it, there were so many pics on there. =(
I found it!! yay! here's the nail polish. the khloe had a little lam lam comes off more green than a true teal. that makes me not so happy. =/

fill in the blank friday

1. A nervous habit I have is:
picking my nail polish off. i don't even realize i'm doing it till after a while. it's annoying.

2. Something that makes me sad is:
i miss my dog marley. whenever i think about her being gone i tear up and my heart breaks a little bit more each time. i loved her so much. =(

3. Today I am thankful for:
overtime. all that overtime my hubby worked the last 2 weeks helped out big time. BIG time. thank you, jesus!

4. My favorite room in my house is:
my master bathroom. it's HUGE and beautiful and has a walk in closet and it's so beautiful and organized and I.LOVE.IT!!

5. I can't stand:
flaky people. if you say you're gonna do something, then do it! don't pretend you forgot or whatever it is your flaky ass does and not do it. that's just annoying and it makes you look bad.

6. If I had an extra $100 to spend on whatever I wanted today I would:
buy myself some perfume. i'm out of all my favs! i have to use stinky perfume like flowerbomb. ugh. does anybody want to trade some good smelling perfume for flowerbomb? it's practically brand new! lol let me know!

7. The last person I hung out with was:

my friend M. it was fun. =D
