Coastal Scents Ultr Shimmer 88 Palette for the eye shadow

4th of July

With tomorrow being the 4th of July. I would just like to take a second on here and publicly thank all our service men in women who are serving and have served our country. Thank you for all the freedoms we have today, for all those people who gave their lives. Make sure tomorrow while everyone is cooking out and shooting fireworks to tell the military men and women in your life just how much you appreciate them.

Product Reviews

I am thinking about starting another blog just for product reviews. I find I am looking for blog sites like that all the time. So if you have any ideas on beauty products or cosmetics you want to see a review on throw some stuff at me. Thanks so much

Update

On the makeup artist prospect, it is going great right now. I have a friend who is a freelance photographer. I have now became her on call makeup artist. She is even putting together a ladies event for us, introducing me as her makeup artist and getting me some portfolio pictures. It makes me a little nervous because print is tricky every line shows up. But my portfolio will be beautiful. I am excited about that. I am hoping to have a good range of things in it by the next month. The awesome makeup artist I want to apprentice with will be meeting with me then and I would really like to show her some awesome pictures.

I want to stop smoking

I have been smoking for 3 years now I picked the habit up right after my son, Logan, passed away and I really want to stop. The only thing really keeping me from stoping right now besides the obvious addiction is I am afraid I'll gain weight. I am a short girl only 5 foot even and I have always struggled with my weight. I had been doing good though by the end of last summer I weighted 118lbs which looked good on me but now I am back up at 135. I hate that. I guess mostly to blame was in my job change I went from working at a gas station where you are constantly moving and stocking all kinds of heavy items and standing all day to a desk job where I'm setting all day and eating. Even with my weight right now making me to say the least insecure something has to give. I get winded by walking up a flight of stairs, I am constantly tired, I cough all the time and sometimes even catch myself wheezing. I've got to stop but I am so afraid of gaining more weight.

If it wasn't for bad luck

You ever feel like if it wasn't for bad luck you'd have no luck at all. While I understand I am very blessed in life there's still those days, weeks, months, and I have even had years where it just seem like nothing goes right. It feels like my life is a living testament to " IF IT WASN'T FOR BAD LUCK, I'D HAVE NO LUCK AT ALL." Sometimes it feels like the universe is working against my happiness. I always try to stay positive though because I personally hate hanging around those people who are always griping and complaining "woe is me" type people. But sometimes it just helps to vent. Regardless of what else this day brings I am keeping my head up and looking to the future because the past is just that... THE PAST.
