A beautiful day of catching up!

I am going to sit here today until I am caught up. I have quite a few things that are time sensitive and have been hanging around here, and I have been too lazy/preoccupied/selfcentered/delusional to get them done. Call me out if you don’t see 4 posts from me come around today. There I have said it. Time to go to work.
Oh – guess what? Today is my one month non-smoking anniversary. I joined this group – QuitNet – and they sent me an email this morning to remind me of …read more
Routines make you beautiful!

Do you have a routine? I usually do, but when school gets out for a break, it goes up like a trailer in a fire. I hate that. A routine makes me feel so much better about life – because everything gets done which frees me up for things that I love to do, like actually spending time with my kids in the summertime. I have mentioned Flylady before, but she always bears mentioning again, because if you, like me, have no inborn routine instinct, she will tell you how to do it, step by step, …read more

This doesn’t have much to do with beauty, but my friend Gloria Gamat did an interview with me at ThePharmVoice if you want to see my titilating commentary about business and blogging.
Also, NailTechSecrets is featured on the front page of Glam.com today – so do go check that out, and click on me (hint – nail polish, bottom center) just cause you can!!
Crossing a rickety non- smoking bridge

I am now 22 days into this non smoking thing (lets just call a kettle what it is, ok?) and I feel like I have crossed some sort of a bridge – rickety as it may be – and I am a little ready to get back to some sort of normalcy around here. My husband was home this weekend for the first time in 2 weeks, and I could tell, really, how bitchy I was. I sort of feel like that ol’ laid back gal I once was is not coming back, and she is being replaced …read more

I hope everyone has a day off of work today!!
I am going to take at least most of the day off today because Marshall is home until this evening, and has been gone working for the past 2 weeks, so am going to enjoy the day with him while I can. I will either see you tonight or without a doubt tommorrow morning. I hope you have a great day!

Just when you thought I was running out of responsibilities – I have sort of taken on another one, but not really. You might know I have been maintaining a website at MRSA Resources for a little over a year now – and have moved the newsy part of it over here to b5media, to MRSANotes.com, where it will be a little closer to me, and easier for me to work on. The part of the work that has actually increased is now I HAVE to write it or have Hsien on my butt.
So, I hope …read more
The Campaign to Eliminate Lip Wrinkles

Oh, just an update here – I am still well on my campaign – 16 days and counting in fact. I would like to have a new lip wrinkle, but alas there are none around, and I am not going to buy a whole pack of lip wrinkles just for one. My creative juices are very lightly flowing, but I still feel nowhere near back to normal, and in addition, I can’t sleep at night to save my life. I have tried sleeping pills, exercise, reading, working SuDoku puzzles – everything I know – but still don’t …read more
May Mascara Madness

Filed under About Me, Cosmetics, Product Reviews
My friend Annie, over at BlogdorfGoodman has been talking about getting together on mascara reviews since working so hard on the unbelievable primer project, where poor Cavewoman tested 40 primers on her face in just about as many days (here is the chart with the final results – awesome project, again, ladies!). So while I sat and pouted and napped and mourned the loss of my best friend last week (ha ha), the beauty mavens were out testing testing testing mascaras and writing them up. So far, none of my favorites have been mentioned, so I will get …read more
I have survived!

I am sure you will all be happy to know that I have survived. LOL I had a REALLY bad day yesterday, but somewhere around 7 or 8pm I came back to life. Stay tuned for yesterdays planned posts, and if you are thinking about quitting – it is a good time to give it a whirl. Once you get past the 3rd day, it is no problem (I can say this, cause this isn’t my first rodeo). But now I have to find a nice way to dump all of my smoking …read more
