Shrinkage, tangles and fairy knots suck.
Omg! That is a lot of hair in my hand (because of tangles, you will see shortly) and yes, that is what I get for not washing my hair for over 4 weeks. For some of you, you say what is the big deal, I only wash my hair once a month anyway, well I don’t. I usually, if I am on my regular schedule, which is being off Mondays would wash my hair once a week, but for the past 4-5 weeks I have been working 5 days a week and doing things every day after work and on weekends, so instead of taking the time to wash my…

Alora Jewelry
Jewelry is this girl’s best friend, next to my husband of course and so when I had the chance to try out Alora Jewelry I jumped at it. One of the pieces reminded me of my times in high school and for me all of it was not the best times of my life, but there were portions here and there of my high school experience that I did manage to enjoy. There were 2 different periods of time where I had favorite pieces of jewelry, one was when I was in my sophomore year (given to me by my high school friend) and after I graduated from high school…

Who needs a nail salon?
I try to spoil him. Sometimes I am quite busy and feel bad when I do not take care of him in that special way. What special way you ask? I looked at his nails and thought that they looked horrible!!! Sike, they are not that bad, but you can tell that they have been neglected. To let you in on a secret, I have been doing his nails before we were married 8 years ago, so he has not been to a nail salon since before then. We were off today, so I decided to take care of him today. He told me that there were a couple of…

Did you pay for that! An Ethical Dilemma
Gobble, gobble time and more than half of the world are out and about picking up their last minute ingredients for that famous sweet potato pie of theirs. I was no different. I was out and about fighting traffic (which is already trying in Atlanta) and playing dodge the pedestrian that blindly runs out in front of your car trying not to be the person that just missed the last dinner rolls that were on sale. After finally parking at the 1st store which turned into 3 stores by the time I was finished, to which I found lots of fresh vegetables which are going to be used in some…

Quick Kale and Banana Smoothie
Part of my/our challenge in this eating better game is to make sure that there is some form of greenery in at least one of our daily meals, whether it is a green apple or two, romaine lettuce instead of iceburg, spinach or greens. Usually the way that I love and enjoy greens is to have some form of good old fashioned fatty meat mixed in the greens, but for the past 3 weeks since we have had this Blendtec machine we have cut down on the amount of fat and fatty meat that we consume. The Blendtec has served us well so far and today we decided to focus…

You too can lose weight with a Colon & Body Cleanse Detox
During this holiday season it is hard to eat all of the increased fatty foods and still lose weight. There is just so much temptation out there, but if you are going to eat the fattening goodies make sure to counter it someway or another. Some people, like myself, add 5 pounds from the week before Thanksgiving and by the New Year, which is why so many are interested in a New Years Resolutions. There are increased parties given by all sorts of people in your circle, from work, to church and don’t forget the family. So what are you going to do? I tell you what, even without dealing…

Great for runners: Darkiron sports earphones
After a long day of grueling work at my 9 to 5, I walked into the gym prepared to relieve some stress, only to find that all of the treadmills were being used. I was on the 4th day of going to the gym consecutively after being mia for quite some time and I was quite proud. I cut my eyes trying not to stare at the other gym members crazily because I, little ole me, thought they were purposely stretching the amount of time on the machines because I wanted to use one. I decided while eagerly awaiting my time on the treadmill, that I would take advantage of…

Does this Edom Body Butter really moisturize?
Even after moving from the “North” to the “South”, I still have to deal with cold temperatures which is why we moved to the South to get away from the cold, but I can honestly say it is much warmer down these parts so I will stop complaining. Along with cold temperatures comes the need to protect your skin during harsh/cold months and I have found a new way to do that by putting on my World of Coca Cola pajama bottoms and by using Edom Body Butter.

Freebies, Samples and Amazon Reviews October 2015
I have heard that it does not always pay off being a procrastinator and that was not an exception for this month. I am sooooo behind on amazon reviews that it is ridiculous and yes, I went ahead and continued to add to my backlog. See picture of at least 5 items that need reviews and yes I am constantly looking for more items to review, so if anyone has clothing items that they want me to try please contact me (shameless plug):

Atlanta Southeastern Women’s Expo
Free makeovers, massages, raffled cruises and free seminars? Who would pass that up? Not this girl. There was a women’s expo in Atlanta, called Atlanta Southeastern Women’s Expo on the 7th and 8th of November and I most certainly attended. It was no cost for most people, because the wonderful host provided VIP free admission tickets online on the website for free for quite some time. The only thing I found is that I do not think that it was that publicized because I only heard of the event going on once throughout the entire 2 weeks I knew about it and I did not see that many women there.…
