A Lot Of Really Important Things.

September 9, 2015

Well, a few things tonight. For starters – I need to start wearing a lip color that isn’t the color of my face. This whole no lips/dead thing just isn’t cutting it. You would have thought I would have learned this lesson back in middle school when I would put concealer on my lips for lip gloss [I MEAN WHY] but unfortunately, I haven’t. On a similar note, is anybody else out there an avid buyer of teeth whiteners? Awesome. For those of you who buy them, do you have this problem where you never actually use them but you just keep buying more? Because that’s where I’m at. I just buy them. I don’t use them. And it now just dawned on me that my teeth aren’t getting any whiter. It’s so annoying how you actually have to open and use products to see results. You’d think with technology these days we would find a solution for this.

Oh I know what’s fun that we can talk about. My eyelids. So here’s the deal with these little guys…they have about peeled off twenty times over and have been insanely swollen and red the last two months. It is so cute, seriously. Unfortunately I found the culprit and it’s the most devastating news I ever did come across – it was my Rodan + Fields skincare system. Now, I’m not saying don’t buy this stuff because OMG do, just don’t get that shaz all over your eyelids apparently. It’s been a hard two months for my poor little eyes. Fortunately they are on their way to normal again so phew but now I’m just curious if anybody else out there has this problem? Please do tell, we can start a support group or something.

What else? My niece started pre-school today. It turns out she wants to be a doggy when she grows up if you read carefully [and/or note the tongue hanging out of her mouth].

I’m just proud of her for having such huge life goals. I just always wanted to be a bagger at a grocery store. I feel like a slacker now because my goal was so….well, possible. Becoming a dog sounds like some serious work. All I can say is get after it girl, if there is one thing this world needs more of it’s joy and what brings us more joy than dogs? Nothing. Life changer this little one is. 
Almost last but not least – I ran 3.5 miles and did a ton of ab work tonight and then immediately scarfed down a huge bowl of mac and cheese with a side of chips and Diet Coke. One of these days I will realize that this doesn’t make the most sense and kinda negates all of the work I sweated and almost cried through but until then – mmmmmmmmmmm mac and cheese. 
Okay, now for the real last and least – several of you wanted to know where I had gotten the maxi dress I was wearing in my office reveal post from, so now I thought I would tell you. Hooooray for sharing secrets! 

That pretty little pink tail feather maxi hails from Swank Avenue and the exact link to the dress can be found here. A little birdie told me that if you use the code LIY25 you can get 25% off and as always, take advantage of free shipping. If that doesn’t make you want hide another purchase from your husband, I don’t know what will. Not saying that you should hide purchases from your husband….just saying to be smart ladies. Is a new dress really worth an argument? Hiding it under the bed works great. shhhhh……
