This is happening—only 23 years after the fact. I’m really only watching it because my friends said it was good and they were all amazed I hadn’t ever seen it. I didn’t think it was THAT crazy so I posted on Facebook and, while I was still in the minority, I wasn’t alone!
She loves to be with us so we take her whenever we go to Anna and David’s. She lives being wrapped in a cozy blanket.
First world problems, people — my super amazing nail lady (and client!) is starting a new and wonderful career to become an RN so I’m going to have to trust someone else now…
I’ll miss her but I’m so happy and excited for her!
Katie helped me get the Blessing Bags started! Now I’m just waiting for a last shipment to arrive so we can finish the last 15 bags!
Edited to add: I just realized I never posted about this. I’ve been wanting to do an event like this for years but I just never could get it going. So this year I just decided to do it! And it was a great success!
So I let her pick the color and apply it herself and she did a great job! But then she didn’t want her picture taken…
Y’all. I did a thing!! I did my first real SMOKY EYE for a date night!
I probably could have made it a bit more smoky but I think I did pretty well considering all of these colors are outside my comfort zone!

And is it wrong that all I want to do is like 14 loads of laundry but I have to wait two hours until they warm up (per delivery people)?
There are days, y’all.
With both the not-even-really-a-preteen-yet girl and the newly-minted teen boy.
Thankfully today isn’t one of them (yet?) but I thought this was too good not to post—it’s funny because it’s true.
About two weeks ago I dropped my phone behind the bed. Tom managed to get it out but unknowingly unplugged the bed (it has USB ports in it so it needs to be plugged in) so nothing is charging and no cables work. I’ve not even been charging my phone at night because I haven’t wanted to figure it out.
Fast forward to last night when I thought I had FINALLY gotten a cable working. Aaaand no. And then I dropped my phone BEHIND THE BED AGAIN. Not reachable at all.
So I got super pissed and rage pulled the nightstand away from the bed. I knew I’d pay for it today and yep, my back hurts. I hate being old and broken.
And yes, I also hate all the cords but they’re generally hidden.
Tonight I did a little shopping from my own stock for things I am running out of… Color Correcting Tinted Moisturizer, Buff Foundation, Rejuvenating Anti-Wrinkle Serum, Advanced SenePlex+ Renewal Serum with Retinol, Digital Age Defense Serum, and Brightening Multi-Vitamin Treatment. Phew! Plus a few extra backups of the Hydrating Mist because SeneGence is getting rid of it and it’s a favorite of mine.
Cheers! Celebrating at Owen’s birthday dinner!
Also… He earned honor roll again! Soooo proud of this kid!
As long as he keeps his grades up, he gets a TV in his room for his birthday!
Yes, it’s a new color. The purple paint Tom took to get matched was actually the bathroom paint and not the laundry room paint. Oh well. I like this, too!
But look at what happens with the painting when Tom is tired. (It will be fixed later.)
I’m glad he didn’t have to go into work today, either!!
He didn’t get it at first and I had to explain it to him. Then he loved it.

I screwed it up when I did a shirt like this for his 11th birthday, too. I managed to fix that one but this one I’m just leaving.
I asked and turns out I did design it correctly but I forgot to “weld” the design to print as one solid piece… so the Cricut assumed it knew better than me and rearranged the design to use less vinyl. Lesson learned.
I told him Anna wanted a picture of him with his lunchbox so he did this. (He also grabbed Owen’s sword but you can’t see it very well.)
He had a zoom call first thing then didn’t have to go in until 2…and then was home by 4! He was a little frustrated (people are teleworking so no one he needs to talk to to get started is there!) but I told him to just enjoy it!
His office (top right window):
To get the garage cleaned out enough for me to park in! The deal was before it snowed but that didn’t happen…so before the threat of a huge snowstorm was next!
I feel kinda guilty sitting here all day cuddling with my dog but I know these days are short lived so I’m just sucking up all the goodness.
We got free tickets to see The Rat Pack is Back in Milwaukee (courtesy of VetTix) so it was date night! Of course we had dinner first (at Doc’s Smokehouse)…
And then off to the Pabst Theater where we actually had really good seats this time —but unfortunately we didn’t love it so we left at intermission. Oh well. They can’t all be winners.
Now that the basement is picked up, we have room for this gymnastics bar and she’s in heaven!
This post has been sitting in my Drafts folder forever because I was always going to go through an old bin of schoolwork. But if got hidden in the move and I haven’t found it yet. So I just decided to post it anyway.
The kids had been bringing home awards and I was totally slacking on posting them, so here they are!
Someone slithered out of her sweater.
And looking quite pensive about it!
(Is that how you spell that?!) Look at what I found while I was searching for something else! Talk about a #glowup eh?!
▪️2017 was when I first started wearing LipSense (and no other SeneGence makeup or skincare)!
▪️2021 is after day-in/day-out SeneGence makeup AND skincare!
Yes, please!
I always thought the SeneGence glow-up photos were retouched but now that it’s me, I promise you there’s no filter or touch-up happening!
I also never thought I’d see this big of a change in my skin but here we are! I’m proof!!
When you grab a shadow out of your bin and apply it and it doesn’t feel quite right so you look at the tube and WHOOPS it was a Limited Edition smaller LipSense.
One of these is Cinnamon Shimmer ShadowSense and one is Bronzed Maple LipSense.
The good news is that it’s okay—it doesn’t hurt to wear LipSense on your eyes (you just want to be careful since it does have alcohol in it). I love products that are double and triple duty!
