Bah Humbaug!!!!

Ok , I know I have been M.I.A. Its been really busy for me. I have started an online school. I have stress at the job and wouldn't you know Christmas is right around the corner. I am way behind on my shopping. I have been working overtime to make sure I can afford everything I want to do this year. The only thing is I think I should have started in October. Have you noticed it seems everything was early this year.

Black Friday really started Thanksgiving evening. The great sales are this week. It almost impossible to catch your breathe in all the rush.

Well, I was one of those fools out that @ 4 am Black Friday. Actually I was out at 2 am hoping to be first in line. That did not happen. There was at least thirty people in-line ahead of me @ Target.

Yes, I decided Target over Walmart this year. Target had most of what I wanted I did hit Walmart after. Why, I don't know, but most item were already grabbed up. I met a friend who was a life saver. The flat screens went in seconds this year. She got her hands on two( lucky me).
Where am I at now,

My Christmas To Do List:

Make Christmas cookies ( 25 kinds of cookies like I promised I don't know)
Get 16yr olds gifts
Get both boys new PJ's
Get Mom & Mother -in law gifts
Get Kitchen draws out of shop

Gray

Ok first , I guess I am in a funk. On a political front things are shakey. I voted but lots of others did n't. I am tired with people. They want to complain but do nothing to try to make a change. I personally feel better when a least I try. I am not a democract. I listen to both sides and decide which supports the most issues I agree with. Right now I feel like everything is standing still. I wamt to be out of school. I want to be comfortable with my career. I want to be progressing on home improvements. Everything feels stuck. I might even shut down this blog. No one seems like they read it. Blog world is oversatuated New people can't get any followers. I am motivated by interaction. Its like everything is the same. The color this fall should be gray, it feels like that.
Until next time, peace.

Don't get sick?

Why not, you ask? Because doctors suck! Ok I say this with a grain of salt since I work in the medical field. And I am first in line for the Obama care or just real universal medical care. It is too expense already and why should we be last when every other country has free medical?
But my real complaint is making an appt. Getting there early, having to wait at lest an hour after appt then the dr walks in an takes 5 mins. What is that about?
I mean now to we go to the doctors office to get mugged or what? He could have just said mail me your $30 co-pay and I will text you when I get a chance.
 This has happened to me more than once. And I am not one to go to doctors. This just makes it worse.
I know you are out there comment and let me know what you think.

Gaga, BLAH, Blah VMA's

Zzzzz Oh I am sorry, I was still napping from watching the 2010 MTV VMA's on Sunday/Monday.
It encored on Monday , but if you missed it you didn't miss much.

Ok I have to say that was the most boring show ever. Ok for the first female host in 16 years, I am all for girl power but I say give it back to the guys. Chelsea Handler sucked ! ( I wonder who did she actually suck to get that gig?)  She started on a flate note from the begining.  Whats up with the repeated  ball stapling joke???? I guess she ran out of material too. They should have just let Nicki & Kate Perry share hosting. They were funny. They need to do something together.

Now on to Material, Lady G , did not fail to impress. I guess she is a real steak & potatoes guy's type of girl. You can take her out to dinner or she can be dinner.  Check out her Meat Dress with accesserioriesLady Gaga My type of girl, she can really bring home the bacon.

I think her wardobe changes saved the show.

Another let down, they hyped up Kanye West vs Taylor Swift so much,but nothing happened. Kanye doesn't owe anyone anything. And Taylor with her " Innocent"  girl next door act, is so yesterday. Boring.

Everyone knows B, can wipe the floor "Swiftly with Taylor. I am cracking myself up right now. ( haha ha) Overall  show was a bomb, but hey thats my opinion.  And in a Justin Bieber Fever world I don't think it counts a lot. But in my Butterfly Diva world, I could have got some more sleep.

On , on to the next show.

Hatein


(ok this is my Nicki Minja Face)

Ok, I am a playa hater. Why, you ask. I missed the event of the year so far. The Urban Decay One Day Only Sale of their NYC Pallet, Book of Shadows Vol.III.

Sephora's Time Square hosted the event Aug 28. If I was back home, you know I would have been first in line even if I had to get there at 4 am in the morning. (Why didn't I work my connects in N. J to stake out for  me, duhh). The first 1,000 were treated to a first come first serve basis, to lots of samples and full size freebies like the 24/7 eyeliner in Crash. The pallet is the third edition to the Book of Shadows eye shadow pallets. But you get so much more than 16 beautiful colors. You get two eyeliners, and a baby Eye primer Potion. OK it's going price is $54 but, one Urban Decay eye shadow goes for $17.
Like the last Alice in Wonderland Pallet it is all pretty inside. But this one has lights. What would a Tribute to NYC be without Night lights of 42nd ST?
Ok, to all of us like me who missed out. We have to wait til Sept 6. For online sales. My fingers are warming up now. In-store sales will be in OCT.


Other Things I want for Fall List, are denim leggings. I am not into skinny jeans. Or should I say I can't get into skinny jeans. But I can rock some leggings and not look like a stuffed sausage. And these are on sale right now at Kohls for like $29.99.




Hey, where are my comments, what are you looking for this fall? Anybody else got their eye on some make-up or fall fashion styles. Let me know add commets.

Peace & Butterflies!

Good Day!

Ok, this is actually a boring day for me. I mean I  am supposed to be relaxing since I have to go to work tomorrow, but I am looking for something to get into.
I mean I could finish the laundry or finish straighten the electronic stuff like floppy disk and cell phone adapters, but that would be too much like work.

I am currently scouting other blogs that interest me.
I'm evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology.  For a while, they're letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.
It covers:
  • The best blogging techniques.
  • How to get traffic to your blog.
  • How to turn your blog into money.
I'll let you know what I think once I've had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it's still free.


I am also looking for ways to organize my kitchen, since we got the plumbing fixed in there.

Meals and grocery shopping is a big deal in my house. I personally don't like to cook in a messy disorganized kitchen. A nice easy to to find things kitchen inspires me.

So far I think I like the Tupperware modular set. But as we know Tupperware is expensive. I will be replacing the Rubber maid  stuff I have with more Premier( no stain) set. The one I have is missing tops or  melted or badly stained with tomato sauce.

Rubber maid had a modular set but I can't find it anywhere.

Oh.... going back to floppy disk, does anyone still use those??? And why do we have so many adapters for everything? How do you organize those?

Hey , give me some advice if you are reading this ( knock, knock , yes you )!

My kitchen is a work in progress. I will put up pics if you want of the transformations.

Comment, there is a button somewhere on here.

Peace& Butterflies

Hot Days in the Summer 2010!!!!

Ok I know I know where have I been? Well life has been crazy for me. I had some family issues, then on the up side, I started a new job. Thw verdict is still out on whether I love it or hate ( ha, ha). Right now its paying the bills. So that is always good.  Today is my last day of summer classes so I figured lets celebrate with getting back to my blog.  We have a lot of catching up to do?

 Plus , Where are all my readers? is anyone out there??? Write me tell what I am doing wrong, or right or what you want to talk about??

So this is just the hello I am back intro. I hope someone is still out there reading??? I promise to get better . I haven't loss my sense of humor and good topics.

Oh first update , I got the Sprint HTC EVO.  Ok, you had to know I am not a IPhone type of girl. And glad  of it! I think I will put some pics of it and maybe a review.

On the make-up front nothing new. But I am working on that. MAC hasn't impressed me lately. And what happened to HIP Loreal. I haven't seen anyhting new from them lately.

Ok, for now , Peace , Luv & Butterflies.

Love Me or Love Me Not?

Ok , its almost valentines day. Are we waiting for loads of chocolate filled lovelys to blow our diets( lifstyle change)? Or are we planning a sexy evening witht that special someone.?
I think the holiday is overrated. Its another day to spend our hard earned money on stuff we don't need. If we truly want to show our love for each other why do we need a special day for that? Why do we have to buy something?
I say give that special someone the gift they really want. The gift of yourself.  Spend time with them doing what they want, share some quiet moments with them. Share your thoughts.
While you are at it, don't forget its important to love your self first in order to know how to love someone else. Take care of yourself on Feb 14, give yourself a big hug and a kiss. And the whole world will see you are loved and hopefully love you back.

On another note.....


 I saw this at a website I frequent and thought I would include it here. So here goes.
I saw this at another website and thought it would be nice to do. Here goes.



What’s happening in my home?….

Boredom, since NC got snow last week and more to come this Friday, kids were out of school 3 days. Over weekened we were iced in, and it didn't get much better Monday, Tues or Wed. We watched movies( luv Redbox) and played a little wii & wi Fit Plus. But mostly we were bored. Glad kids went back to school today. I am still bored can't wait to go back to work.



In my kitchen…End of month findings. So cupboard is pretty bare. Making due with whats left. Last night BBQ chicken, tonight tuna casserole.



With our marriage… getting along so far



With the children… Oldest is a real good debater, please let him be rich and famous from this. He definitely has strong views about alot of things. Little one still trying to figure out what he is doing in school.



Around the homestead… Cold, cloudy



In my “Inner Man”….   Not sure about this one.



What is your Inner Man? In 2 Corinthians 4 Paul gives us a clue about what he means when he says “the inner man”. In that scripture he says that “our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day” (4:16 KJV). So for Christians even though there is something about us that is getting old, decaying and deteriorating and dying..there is also something about us that is growing, becoming more alive, richer and stronger every day we live and follow Christ. That is what Paul calls our “inner man.”

Ok this year so far I am getting finances straight. So my make-up hauls are on hold. I will post what I got before Christmas. Just some staples to cross off my list. MAC's Warm Blend MSF & Fix +, and Cyber that wanna be Rihanna lip color( not) what a waste. I got Color stay foundation in my stocking a some lashes, which by the way I still have not gotten the hang of wearing. I really am getting over make- up. A lip gloss here and there is different, a girl can never have too much lip gloss, Right???
 I really want to work on getting house together. And savings.

So on to bigger and better things in 2010!!!!!
