I cannot say enough how much I enjoyed reading this.

Thirty

When I look back at my thirtieth birthday, I probably won't remember the gifts or the stress of getting everyone together.

I probably won't remember the Pandora, Fossil, MK, Estee Lauder, pottery, etc...

I'll remember my mom getting excited when she found the perfect charm right in front of my eyes.

I'll remember spending time in Oxford for Mrs. Martha's funeral. I'll remember Mr. Billy saying "57 years wasn't long enough".

I'll remember being shocked when SS brought me perfectly wrapped gifts complete with tissue paper and bows. I'll remember him telling me he picked it out all by himself and that he said "now you won't have to carry a purse" because mine hurts my cripple shoulder. *Hopefully, I won't remember my crip shoulder much longer...*

I'll remember Chloe being so proud of the balloons and card she gave me.

I'll remember eating at a restaurant with my parents, sister, niece and grandmother.

I'll remember watching the Frozen Sing Along with 1400 other people downtown on a Friday night while Chloe belted out every.single.song.

I'll remember the goofy conversation over Mexican food and the friends/talks on the patio.

I'll remember getting pampered with a pedicure and my first ever facial.

Yes, I love my Pandora charm. Yes, I love my new MK purse. Yes, I love my Fossil wristlet and perfume. Yes, I love my Hull pottery. Yes, I love each and every gift I received, every card, every balloon, every box of candy... BUT I would give all that up in a heartbeat to have a few more memories like the ones I've listed.

Loving Lately

I'm still not in the mood to get all personal yet, so I'll stick wtih my "fluff" posts for now.

I've tried a few new products recently and thought I'd document which ones I am loving lately.

I've only used this a few times, but I can already say that I really like it. It's great for my fine/limp/oily hair!



Clean Freak

 Perfect for cleaning my face in the morning and at night! Plus it's cheap and lasts forever.

Witch Hazel

 

 I bought this at WalMart a couple of weeks ago and it works really well. It's sheer and it works like a glue almost. It's amazing what a difference it makes in making my make-up last.

Perfecting Primer

 

I have black bags under my eyes. It's allergy season. This is a miracle worker and I doubt I ever use anything else. Ever.

Concealer

I think that's about it for now. I am using a second concealer (that's yellow), but I've only used it once or twice so far.

Cobwebs

Let me dust the cobwebs off my little slice of the world wide web... I know it's been a while and I plan on trying to catch things up, but until then I'll start with this...

Currently..

 

Eating - Nothing; I finished my oatmeal earlier and I'm waiting on lunch!

Drinking - Water. Blah. I could reallllllly use a Dr. Pepper Mtn Dew right now! I am still half asleep on this lovely Good Friday.

Missing -

Reading - Nothing for fun! Although, Kayla is trying to get me into reading Gone Girl. I was wishy washy at first, but then she said Ben Affleck is in the movie and that made my mind up for me! What girl doesn't love Ben Affleck, right?

Watching - I'm watching myself type, does that count? I'm at work, in my office and alone. Not much happening!

Wishing - I wasn't at work! You shouldn't have to work on Good Friday! I try not to wish my time away, but I do wish it was tomorow already. Kelly and I have a shopping day planned in Tupelo!

Planning - Planning my shopping trip! I have several events coming up and I need want new clothes! My random surprise trip next week, my birthday, concerts, at least one beach trip, a special someone (SS)'s birthday, SS's graduation, etc...

Listening To - Silence! I'm not complaining. My office buddy has been listening to some ODD music lately. Thankfully, he hasn't started blasting it... yet.

Craving - Pancakes... and snickers... and Mtn Dew... random combinations but I'm trying to get swimsuit ready!

Wearing - blue & silver 3/4 length top, dressy denim pants and my gray toms.

Excited For - closing two hours early today AND my beach trip Memorial Day weekend. This will be my first vacation with friends (since my senior trip) and I am excited and beyond ready!

Smelling - NOTHING. It's allergy season in Mississippi. I haven't smelled anything in weeks :(

Feeling - Annoyed. Monday, my left eyelid started twitching and it's become more and more frequent. It's driving me batty!

Anticipating - t h e  w e e k e n d ! Not sure what the weekend holds, but I'm ready for it!
