Not an original title but it does explain where I was for a couple of days last week. I went to Las Vegas with a friend for a little recreation and maybe a concert. My cousin is a professional drummer and he is currently touring with JLO-yep the one and only Jennifer Lopez who has…

Basic Daytime Makeup Routine
I am kind of a beauty junkie. Not so much of a junkie that I buy every new product that comes out but I am interested in what is out there. I wear make up daily to work and sometimes on the weekends. I enjoy a full face of makeup and like to get dramatic…

Happy Labor Day
Today we celebrate Labor Day. It is a national holiday and most of us probably don’t even know why we celebrate it! President Grover Cleveland signed a bill into law on June 28, 1894, declaring Labor Day a national holiday. Some historians say he was afraid of losing the support of working-class voters. Labor Day…

Podcasts-Yay or Nay?
So, I’ll get straight to the point. In terms of podcasts, I’m a yay! It’s surprising to me because I’m not one who listens to talk radio or even watches tv talk shows. In the car, I was always a music listener and my music was always loud. What changed? In 2014, the podcast, Serial by…

Birthday Girl

Skin Care Routine-Summer Version
My skin care routine is fairly simple though some may think it has lots of steps. I think my routine is like most women but I would definitely be interested in hearing what your routine is like! My skin has gone through some changes as I’ve gotten older. I suffered through acne as a teen…

Things I’m Digging Right Now (and a bonus)
Right now, it’s summer and the living is easy! Ok, not really any easier than any other time but summer just feels a little less intense. I still have to work (I’m not a teacher so no summers off) and nothing really changes except for the weather! Here are a few things that I am…
