What I did today!

I had a semi-small list of things I wanted to get taken care of today and I had hoped to get a start early.
But yesterday I was sent a e-mil form this temp agency telling me they were going to call me today at 11:30 ..... yup you guessed it NO CALL.  Just how rude are these temp agency people?  They act like they have these "jobs you'll be perfect for" hump...... got you jumping through a bajillion hoops basically tap dancing and singing 'PLEASE HIRE ME' all for there amusement! *SIGH*

I digress.

So then it was off the the Habitat for Humanity store to have a look see at what they have BUT they are closed on Mondays and open at noon on Tuesdays so I'll hit them up tomorrow.

I had lunch at La Hacienda with Dre.  It was very good.  It may be my Cinco de Mayo place to be this year.  The margaritas are perfecto.

Finally, I headed to the Marshalls/Home Goods store.  After the Sephora debacle in JCP I must say I was feeling some kind of way about the dual store thing BUT Y'ALL I am in love with this place!!!!
I know I am broke and lord knows if I had the money I'd still be broke just with a bunch of beautiful things!!!  I was like a kid in a candy store.  I was touching everything.  I did manage to get a few things.

My girl Monica suggested we ladies pick up RX for Brown Skin and I found a few left!  Go Me!!!

 I can't wait to see how these work for my skin.

I also picked up a cute wine stopper set.
 
 Can't wait to use this.

All in all today was a great day!!!!  I love spending time with my boobie looking at things that might make our home a little brighter.  He goes along with me even though I'm sure he'd rather just be home chillin.  I love you baby!

If you get a chance I say go to the nearest Home Goods store near you and get your shop on!


Drink and be Merry!

One of my favorite places to window shop and sometimes buy is woot.com.  Well fellow wine drinkers they have a site called wine.woot.com and here is today's special.  I need to take a wine class so I'll know what wine goes with what meat or dessert.

Got my toes dun up and my finger nails matching


I am all about saving money these days and .... well you all know why.  So I got my eyebrows waxed yesterday.  I know that costs money but I just wasn't doing a good job of it myself.  While there the lady was trying to talk me into a manicure and pedicure.  I looked down and well my toes/feet could use it.  Not to mention my nails or lack of nails could use some sprucing up.  Now I know I can do this at home easily.  I have everything I need.  So today that's what I'll do!  I'm not going to pay $35 for something I can do for free.  I surely have my way of doing it but below are some steps so you can do it at home too!


1) When starting a home manicure, remove any old polish from the nail bed. After the polish is removed, clip the nails straight across, slightly above the skin. Don’t cut the nails into points or try and shape them with cutters, it will only make them more prone to breakage.

2) Next, file nails straight across, rounding slightly on the corners. The correct term for this shape used in all the salons is called ’squoval’, square on the top, corners rounded like ovals. File from the outside to the center of the nail to prevent tearing and grinding away at the nail.

3) After filing, apply cuticle remover on the cuticles, and then soak fingers in warm soapy water for a few minutes. Avoid letting them soak long because if the nail is too saturated, it can make the nail soft, making it harder to apply polish. If nails are yellow or stained from constant use of polish, add a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide (I do this) or lemon juice to the water.

4) When the nails are done soaking, use an orangewood stick wrapped in cotton to gently push back cuticles from the nails. With cuticle nippers, trim hangnails and avoid cutting the cuticle to prevent infection. Massage hands with a hand or body scrub (I use this), and then rinse and apply hand cream (I used a body butter). Add cuticle oil to the cuticles and massage to allow the oil to soak in. After moisturizing, clean the nails of oil by using a cotton ball with polish remover to prepare nails for paint.

5) Painting the nails. Allow a few minutes to pass since removing oil from the nails so the remover has time to evaporate. Apply a base coat to all nails, starting with the pinkie finger to prevent smudges while painting. After letting the base coat dry, apply the first coat of color polish. For an even amount of polish on each nail, use three strokes of the brush, the first one down the center and then one on each side from the bottom of the nail up to the top.

6) After the first coat is dry, the final step to the manicure is applying a second coat. By painting to the tip of the nail and slightly over, it can prolong the life of the manicure and prevent chipping. Use a small brush with remover to clean up any spots where the polish got onto the skin. Apply a clear topcoat and allow nails to dry.

My new favorite BBQ thing!!!  I must say I LOVE this for doing my chicken on the grill.  I have used this and my chicken comes out juicy and delicious.  I got mine from Lowes.  Pick one up people.   Now if you are one who has to have the grill marks then after the chicken has cooked you can easily remove the legs and char in the grill marks for show.  It's just not that serious for me.  I'm all about the easy.

I Am Not My Hair



Chrisette Michele decided to let it all go.  Could you cut it all off?  I did.  Not this short but I had about 1//2 inch of hair on my head.  When my hair was wet you could see my scalp.  Some folks were shocked that I just took the clippers myself one day and just did it.  One day I had hair touching my shoulders and the next day I was bald.  Well damn near close to bald.  I thank God I have a small head.  It's not that people hated it, well if they did they said nothing to me about it, they just were in shock.  Like I cared.  I was free y'all.  No more curling irons, flat irons,  hell even blow dryers.  I love not having to worry about it.  Other then coloring it.  I'm not ready for the grays yet.

Back to Chrisette.  I love this look on her!  You can see the strength of her face.  Beautiful!

Family Ties


As you know if your are on my Face.Book page I went to visit a old Army buddy that I haven't seen in 15yrs.  That Army buddy also happens to be my oldest daughters bio-Aunt on her DNA donors side of the family.  All in all it was a pretty good weekend.

 That bedroom set is fly as hell
I already told her I was stealing this!!
So ignore the people.  Look at the sectional.  Yes it takes up the whole room!  I told her that ummm if she didn't want to keep it I would gladly take it off her hands. lolol She would cut me!  Love you Londa!

It started off as mass confusion because they were also moving into their new base housing.  The rest of the furniture was coming on the Monday that just passed.  I can't wait to see the house all put together.  Her taste is FA.BU.LUS!!  She is Fly by nature.  Always has been and still is!

Her hubby's family are a trip and good peoples.  They excepted her right off and made us both feel like family.  Made my heart sing to see my baby so happy!  She looked so long for that connection to that side of her and now she has it.  She is spending spring break with them getting to know them and starting bonds that I hope last a lifetime

 
 
 This brings me joy!!

This is the first time I have ever let her go off with someone other than MY family members.  So I'll be back and are bringing all my kids and hubby this time on Saturday for the house warming BBQ and to bring my daughter back home to reality.  Heck they got one more month of school then it's summertime.  Jeeeeeeesh the school year went by fast!  Looks Like I'm gonna be in GA a lot! 

Speak on it ....
