Life is Messy, but It's Worth It
I love getting my hair done and feeling how soft and luscious the salon products feel. However, I don’t love when they tell me how much all those products cost to bring them home with me. Instead of using up all these products (I still have them to use once a week), I pick up […]
We recently purchased a Nest thermostat for our home, because we had Christmas money to burn and our current thermostat was SUPER out-dated– I’m not even sure that we were setting our temps correctly, it was that level of old. I know that there are other brands of eco-friendly, high-tech thermostats but this is the […]
Through my insurance, I have a gym membership to over 7 gyms in my general vicinity. So I have the capability to workout at a gym whenever I want to. The problem is I don’t want to get in my car and drive across town to just workout. I’d MUCH rather do an at home workout and save […]
I need a guide to makeup brushes, like I need a car manual. Most of my friends are OBSESSED with buying and putting on makeup, where I’m over here just trying to look presentable during the day. Seeing Instagram posts filled with makeup palettes and gobs of brushes confuses me, mostly because I don’t know […]

I had a few days off recently, so I thought I’d try to make a DIY face mask. I always see a bunch on Pinterest and think to myself “Well, those look easy to make. Plus they say it works, so it must be good”. Except when I made my own DIY face mask, it was NOT […]
Ever since I was a little girl, I have always bought a new Easter dress. It doesn’t matter that we don’t have to dress up for church any more, or that we have a casual lunch at my Grandma’s now, I love a new dress. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have so many Easter dresses! This year, […]
It’s Spring cleaning time in our house right now. Even though we keep a relatively clean home all year long, there are certain things that only get cleaned once or twice a year that I put on our Spring cleaning list. If it’s that time of year in your household, you may have created a […]
There was another homeowner lesson this weekend in our household. We had a leaking toilet (Or so we thought). However, when we tried to replace the wax ring, we quickly discovered that our toilet tank was cracked. Which is how we decided to shop for a toilet on a Sunday. I have never been a […]
