How I Deal With the Pain

I know it has been a while and the pain has been a real factor for me. This article is about something that most of my family doesn't even know. It is something that I have dealt with for many years and it has been a painful ride. I still suffer but now as much as I use to before treatments. My life has changed so much since I was diagnosed and I have been through the ringer...

Update

Hey everyone, I know it has been a long time since I have posted and I have been a busy lady. Since I have last posted I have been laid off from my job, I haven't been working, and all of that happened right as I signed the lease of an apartment with my boyfriend!! Now I am struggling and life is not treating me well enough. I am thankful to have my boyfriend to support me and help me through it all. If I didn't have him in my life, I do not know where I would be right now. 

As I am typing this, I am thinking about everything that I should be doing but I really don't feel like being an adult at this very moment. I just want everything to go back. I would be happier working and making money. I love my life and just wish that I had a job. I have been sitting here for a month applying to jobs and getting nowhere! 

Now that I have all of this free time, I am thinking about posting again and working hard making this something other than a hobby... What do you think? 

Talk to y'all soon!

Mission: Straight With Ease

Hey everyone and happy February! This is going to be a cold month here in PA where I live and trying to look for a place to live is taking a toll. But, I will vent the stresses of trying to find a place in a post in the future. This month is going to be about looking and feeling good about yourself and my looks for birthday and Valentine's Day... which happen to be the same day but I am going to post some photos of looks to inspire!

How I Get Free Products ;)

  Hello everyone and happy February!!! AKA happy birthday month to me :) and to everyone else that is born this month. This past week has been an interesting week. From work downsizing and people leaving, it is getting crazy. I am looking for a new job and trying to find one where I can work from home... It is hard but I will try to find something. But, I am planning posts for this month from Valentine's Day looks to my birthday makeup look... which I haven't  even planned yet. But, I do know what I am doing on the day before my birthday, but y'all should keep an eye out for my Instagram for that and I am looking forward to that day!

Bold Blue

Allo everyone! This is the first of a number in a series I am going to call the "Color Series". This is something that I thought about for a year and I figured I would get a start on it. Once a month I will write up an article that is all about a certain color. Now, I don't know how long this series will be since I only have a few select colors, but this will be fun! I would love you y'all to give your input and make this fun! Don't forget to try some of these looks at home!

Statement Here Please ;)

Hey everyone. I know that everyone has their own spin on the classic make of the past. If it is a dramatic cat eye liner to a bold statement lip, but making it all look normal can be a tad tricky. Lately I have been wondering how I would feel with a simply eye and a bold red lip. To me this reminds me of that classic old time actress from the 20s when things were glamorous and statements were all over the place. Keep reading to find out how I got to these looks.

Going Back to Work and Losing My Job!!!

  Hey everyone and welcome back. Today is all about me going back to work and how I am not thrilled with my job. And if y'all have been following, I got a job and I thought that I would be there for a long time like my old one... NOPE! Since I am technically an employee through a staffing agency, I have different rules than employees of the company I work at.  But, I was excited to get a job and go back to work because I was not going back to Walmart!

Update on Me!

Hey y'all. I hope that week three into 2018 is going to be good. The first snowstorm of the year has happened and it was huge! At least in Bethlehem, it was a nice day. It was sad to see my boyfriend leave in the morning, but it is nice to see him come home every afternoon and just be us. Also, this is after I watched the new jump from the Lehigh Valley supposed to get getting a dusting to three inches, then jumping to four to six inches. I love the scenery in Bethlehem and it is nice to see it every day now.

My New Year's Eve and New Years!

Welcome to 2018 everyone! I hope that everyone has had a great start to the new year! I am having a good start to the year! We are a week in and I have a lot to say about 2017. Also, this week past week is my last week of freedom as I start working on 1/8!!! The day after this, I go back to work. As you might have read from previous posts, I haven't been working since I moved out here. But, on another note, if you read my New Year's post, New Year's Day is very special to me!

Happy Anniversary and Happy New Year!

It's 2018!! Happy 2018 y'all!!! This is the first post of 2018 and I know that this is a new year but first I must say this....

Christmas Party  2017

Today marks one year since my boyfriend and I made it offical that we are boyfriend and girlfriend. We met five-six months before and in the almost two years together, this has been amazing. From meeting your friends and family to moving out to PA for you. I love you more than you know. He has made me the happiest girl on the world and I have been to places that I will forever treasure. The almost two hour car rides every other weekend was worth spending as much time together as possible. I love making you laugh and smile and doing things together. From going to sporting games to going to the movies, I can't wait to see what year two brings for us honey. I love you to the moon and back and I can't wait for 2018 suprises!!!

I hope everyone has a safe and happy new year y'all!!!
