Weekend Stuff...

Lajuan doing the the"Cupid Shuffle"!!! She said she would teach me how to how to do it and the "Soulja Boy"
This brother was cool as hell with that towel and shaved ice...
Can you believe I actually did something this weekend.?Well, it was actually work but I went somewhere and did something on the weekend that the kids were in Charlotte. These are pictures from my hometown's Uniquely Union Festival. My job was a title sponsor so I volunteered to go out and hang out at our table. Somehow I got caught up "face painting" ( not blending and shading eye shadows people...), putting little hearts and letters on little faces. The kids would ask for butterflies and other pictures and I would say,"I only do letters and hearts" Seriously, I'm not artistic!! But I had fun. Here's a pic of some $1 earrings I bought from a vendor.

This band was killing it! They are called Cadillac High.
Me. In the hot sun...sweating...ew!
This chick danced the whole time. She was just in her own space. Do you girl! I just couldn't get over how much black she had on...in that hot sun.
I wanted one of those wind chimes but I thought it might be to noisy for me. How weird.
I got a blooming onion from this vendor. They said they were from Ashe County NC. It was divine!

A Day...A Good Day...

I actually had a good day. Mainly because I was off work. Normally I would have cleaned my house spotless, ran errands, went to the 'burg and spent money i needed not to be today...I rested. I dropped those Bam-Bam kids of mine off at daycare, came home and fixed breakfast. Instead getting the ball rolling of washing clothes and other mundane things to keep my anxiety levels to a even keel, I went right back to sleep. I haven't done that IN YEARS. Wake up and then go back to sleep all in two hours then sleep til 12:30? That's what I call "beauty sleep" I love it!!!

Then I flipped around, continued to read my September Vogue( that I haven't finished, Lawd...), fixed a lunch/ dinner of Chicken Marsala and Angel Hair pasta, and watched Sex and The City On Demand. I must say, Season Five is one of my favorites! I'm so excited for Ms. Jennifer Hudson, she will be in the SATC movie as Carrie's assistant. They start filming next week in New York City. Will Patricia Field costume design the movie? What fabulousness will she pick for Jenn?

Ah...now I'm just waiting around to pick up Weaver and Weaver.

Super Rave: Phisoderm Skin Care...Updated!!

I'm super excited to review my newest find in the drugstore: Phisoderm. Now Phisoderm is not a new product but the packaging is new and that's what drew me to it. It looks sleeker and modern. But the some formulas have changed too. I'm currently using the Foaming Facial Wash and Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15. I do this routine in the morning. I started last Wednesday and difference is insane. My skin was going to through this rough patch of not enough sleep and sample packets due to my overwhelming broke-ness.Lol! But I got this because it was "buy the cleanser get the moisturizer free" at CVS last week. But back to the product and what it has done:)...my skin cleared up in days. And the glow is back! The foaming cleanser is real time saver and non-drying and moisturizer is an light as feather and lightly scented. Both are really refreshing for my skin. Next, I plan on hunting down the Nurturing Facial Polish!

Laborious Day...

I must say Soror Star is looking divine at P.Diddy's White Party this Laborious Day Weekend. Why Laborious Day? I worked this morning and I'm busted. I picked up the new InStyle and a six of Stella Artois( Thanks "Headz of the Familyz"!) and I'm going put the bams to bed and relax. Have a great day everyone!!

Things That Happen After Payday...

Hey folk,

On Wednesday I went to pick up my Avon order at Linda's.I had forgot what I ordered so when open the bag it had a 4-piece Imari Set, the Avon SpaFinder Color Orbs, and to makeup set, The Brights Collection and The Neutral Collection. I didn't have to even open the makeup to realize I didn't want it. It was very summer and working on winter stuff now since September is around the bend. So, I went and exchanged the makeup for this, The Jillian Dempsey Mother's Day Collection. I'm alot happier with it...





In other buys...I picked up these really fun and fall/winter like Maybelline nail colors from their new fall color story @ Rite-Aid/Edkerd. All the Maybelline was 40% and I had three coupons for a $1 each on nail lacquers.

On that same Wednesday, I spent $30 at Starbucks. You ask how? I got my Ethopia Sidamo and Sulawasi coffees custom blended for my $10 coffee maker (lol!), a grande soy chai latte iced with extra ice, and this CD, Heart, Body and Soul, which is so sexy and sweet, you must get it. The barista told me said its been flying out there since they stocked it on Monday.

Of course I still have the "plague" and suddenly the plague has now changed into sore throat and sticky mouth. I pulled my Glenn Barr Hint Mints case out of my pocket yesterday at work and my boss almost knocked it out of my hands, checking out the cool artwork on the front. Plus, they are not sizzling hot in my mouth and comforting to throat. They will definitely travel with me to church, so I wont be rattling peppermint candy paper while reading the Responsive Reading!

Have a great holiday weekend for Laborious Day, that's what I call it. I'll probably be working anyway...:(
