It's All About Me

I've been in a funk lately. I feel blah and need to spruce up my act. I've decided to finally start shopping for myself. Every time I go to the store I end up buying the girls stuff and never myself. I'm terrible when it comes to accessories, make-up, hair etc.. I own 3 bras and maybe 6 pairs of under wear. I don't buy jewelry, I rarely fix my hair and make-up well it's very minimal. 


So today I'm blogging about my recent purchases. First off this new Shampoo/Conditioner by L'Oreal. It's smells awesome. My hair seems shiny and not waited down with gunk. I never use hair product and don't even own a bottle of hair spray. How sad is that??? At $2.99 a bottle I'm totally loving it. 

Next up new face scrub. I use those make-up towelettes at night to wash my face since I'm too lazy to splash water and then dry off. The make-up removers are just my style. I purchased St. Ives Apricot Face Scrub and again love it. My face seems so clean and smooth after. I don't even need to apply moisturizer. I actually feel like my face is clean. Not sure why it says $19 on Amazon, but I purchased at Walgreens for $3.29

Last, but not least favorite purchase this weekend is my new hair dryer. I can't say enough about it. I bought one 3 years ago for $125. It's heavy and takes forever to dry my hair. This Conair drys my hair in half the time, my hair is smooth and no fly aways. The amount of air this little baby puts out is awesome. I purchased it at Target for $39.99, but when looking for a photo to post to my blog I see it half the price, pissed! I highly recommend.



I have 3 new items coming in the mail this week and once I try them out I'll let you know what I think. Happy Sunday :)

Rascal Flatts - Every Day

2 Weeks

It's been 2 Weeks. Every day is getting a little better. I still get sad and sometimes forget that I no longer have a pregnant belly. On another note my husband Duncan has been wonderful. He's always so supportive and I feel this has brought us closer. The video above is a song dedicated to him and the lyrics are below. I love you Duncan Burke, every day you save me.


You could've bowed out gracefully
But you didn't
You knew enough to know
To leave well enough alone
But you wouldn't
I drive myself crazy
Tryin' to stay out of my own way
The messes that I make
But my secrets are so safe
The only one who gets me
Yeah, you get me
It's amazing to me

(Chorus)
How every day
Every day, every day
You save my life

I come around all broken down and
Crowded out
And you're comfort
Sometimes the place I go
Is so deep and dark and desperate
I don't know, I don't know

(Repeat Chorus)

Sometimes I swear, I don't know if
I'm comin' or goin'
But you always say something
Without even knowin'
That I'm hangin on to your words
With all of my might and it's alright
Yeah, I'm alright for one more night

Every day you save my life

Snow Day

We have been snowed in for the past two days. No use in cleaning with kids, dog & husband around everything just gets messy again. I have already ran the dishwasher twice today. These past few days i've been feeling a little better. I keep myself busy around the house. I'm going back to work tomorrow. I feel like we need to get back in to our routine. Night times are still rough. I have a hard time falling asleep and that's when my mind goes crazy. Too much thinking which then leads in to crying. I told my sister just yesterday maybe I should start drinking a glass of wine before bedtime so that I'll just pass out. 


I've actually cooked these past few days. I'm loving all of these crock pot meals I've been trying out. This morning Duncan has been working on shoveling the driveway so we can actually leave the house tomorrow. Karter has been begging to play in the snow so she went out for about 15 minutes and I snapped a few pics. Enjoy!
