Coupon Adventure…Total Savings $31.85

October 22, 2008 October 22, 2008

SAVINGS AWARENESS: I am becoming aware of costs!!!! This is profound for me! I always thought that was for the stay-at-home mom part of life, yet I am now realizing that there is great value saving money at all times and that money saved can be used many other places. I also thought that coupons and savings were only for packaged and unhealthy items. I am here to tell you that I am still learning, but there are savings out there on healthy items if you know where to look. I also thought that it wasn’t worth my time to look for money savings if I was working full time, but I am now able to look for these savings with my new …

eat pray love

October 19, 2008 books October 19, 2008

I started out seeing this book “eat pray love” on Oprah. Yes, all if you who know me know that I Tivo Oprah daily. No, I do not like her politics or even her. I like that her show keeps me updated on what’s happening in the world that I otherwise would be unaware. This book, for one, I was unaware. I saw this book on Oprah and thought – NO WAY! This book is about her leaving her husband to go find herself! What a bunch of crap! That’s the easy way out! Stay with him. You made a vow…keep it.But, I was in the airport bookstore in January of this year and …

Boomerang Tags

October 18, 2008 dogs October 18, 2008

Anne gave me the idea to blog about the tags that I get for our golden retriever. I HATE hearing my dog jingle through life and know that if it bugs me, it just might bug him. SO, I found these neat tags called BOOMERANG TAGS that are great! They fit right around the collar.Now, you ask, what do you do about the Rabies Vaccination tag? I don’t use the normal loop that is for tags unless it is next to an area with double fabric – where the collar is doubled over to expand. In this case, my Planet Dog collar (recommended to me by my best friend, Shawna of styleberryHOME is reinforced in that area. So, I used the other metal loop and ...

DRYING curly hair

October 18, 2008 curly hair October 18, 2008

This is the morning of my wedding as my best friend and maid of honor assisted me in drying my hair. You can’t even see the diffuser on my hair dryer because it is inside my hair :) Beauty is painful. That is my best friend rubbing my neck from the strain being caused by drying my hair!!!

A diffuser is a MUST….not a maybe, a MUST!!! I found a great YouTube video about styling curly hair that I cannot embed but is perfect information. Click …

October 18, 2008 curly hair October 18, 2008

There are a lot of curly hair resources out there that I have discovered throughout the years of my curly hair trials! One that I have found very useful is naturallycurly.com. Looking for a new product? or inspiration? or a curly friend? It’s all here….There are some great resources on this site. I have used the CurlSalons feature in all of the states I have lived in. When I lived in Denver in college I found a fantastic hairdresser in Boulder. (Side note: I also found someone to wax my eyebrows there…ruined me for life! It was the best wax I’ve ever had and now will not allow anyone to wax me because they don’t compare.)CurlPix has great ideas for hairstyles. …
