Field Trip!!!

I'm off on a field trip...to Greenville! How exciting. An hour maybe more of intense I-85 eighteen wheeler laden road and people driving toward Atlanta like its 15 mins away! But yesterday on my way to Woodruff. I found the "back way" to Greer that puts me on I-85. I'll have pics. Hopefully, if my poor ole camera permits...





I needs to go to:





the mall( and several places in it)


B&N across from the mall( because its smokin'.I want that new Feist album.)


Steve&Barry's( because Cuzin'T.Hall says I NEED to go there)


Bloom Supermarket(I'm curious....an upgraded Food Lion?)


Ulta


and....Whole Foods!!





And try to be back by 4:00pm





Pray safe "Traveling mercies" on me!

Juicy, Juicy...

While at work tonight, I was chillin' on my break in the "breakroom" We were talking about how cold it gets in that store and I said "I wish I could roll up in here with one of Juicy Couture terry cloth hoodies...!"The girl that was in the breakroom with me was like "Juicy wat?" "Wat's that" So I realize not everyone is slave to fashion like moi, So I explain to her that the velour tracksuit did not originate at Rainbow but with a label called Juicy Couture. She seemed amazed. I'm glad I enlightened her with some fashion history. Hopefully I was right. But, she definitely knew what a tracksuit was:) I'll admit I likes me some Juicy...it's fun yet played out yet comfy.
Any how, here's some of my favorite pieces of Juicy. I own hoodies,t-shirts,bag, makeup bag, perfume, two handbags and my favorite, jewelry. No pants though...they stop at size 14 and they're still too small. So what.:)
I have these earrings. I love love love heart shaped jewelry.
Got this bracelet like three years ago and it hasn't changed color. I have a Strawberry charm and charm that says"Queen of Couture" on it.I had a gumball machine charm and four leaf clover charm but I had to take them off...

I love this fragrance. But find it too heavy for the day. But it's a good Sunday- Go- Meeting scent. Think about it...when you go to church, doesn't seem like every women has on the strongest perfume they own?

Decisions, Decisions...

So...I'm sitting here at the computer contemplating lunch, going to Wal-Hell for the new Keyshia Cole, how I'm going to get to Woodruff tomorrow, and what I'm going to do Thursday on my day off...

Too much to think about...

Well, Lunch, I'll figure that out.

Why is Wal-Mart to ONLY place in Union to buy CDs? Isn't that ridiculous? Plus this morning they played snippets of K.Cole's album on Power 98 and some women called in talking about, "Why she always talking about some dude doing her wrong" and "She need to get some new material like some dance tracks". The DJs were like..."Those are married fans right there, acting like they ain't never been single!" Listen, Mary J.Blige, who Keyshia is often compared to, first three to four albums were those heartbreak albums, and no one was bitching. I don't like when folk talk smack about Keysh man!

I know how to get to Woodruff but I don't. I going for work but I can't get lost because its a backwoods road drive.

Thursday. I've some options. Get up early and go see my homegirl Gab in Charlotte. But I know I can't do one-day trip to QC because I got too many places to go. Then I was going see what my homie/cuzin/soror T.Hall was doing to Columbia( Ooops...Cuzin's going on vacay). Hell, I don't want drive either place. Option 3, hit Greenville to go to Haywood Mall. Still don't want to drive and but don't want to stay at home.

The life of a Libra...indecisive.

To all of you fantastic people who left birthday wishes and encouragement and prayer for the blog...Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!! I'm going to try and hang in there, the blogsphere that is.:) Be Good!!

September 23,1977...

Happy Birthday to Me!!! I'm now the grand age of 30! And on this day, I got up and got dressed to go church to celebrate this milestone day. On the serious tip...I should've been dead. I've suffered from depression on and off for the last three years. Yet every year I make it to my birthday I secretly celebrate that I haven't taken my life and God gave me another chance. He's God of second chances...

This year I'm happy on my birthday. I wearing a brand new $10 dress from this store called Simply Fashions. It's like Forever 21 for big girls!. My shoes are Colin Stuart( Victoria's Secret) that I got at Salvation Army brand new for 5.99.

Questions!

I saw these questions on Pursebuzz and I thought it would cute to post my answers here and over there... Go over there and check out some answers!!!



1) Lash extensions- Have you tried it out, how much, how long does it last, will you do it again? Or anything else you want to share.

Never tried them but thought about it. I pass this salon in the 'Burg that has a sign outside "Lash Extentions!!!". But I don't need them.


2) What is your favorite foundation and why? (This is just for everyone who has asked)

My favorite of all time in Becca Foundation Stick in Pecan( I think). But I can't afford it anymore. It's like $38. But back in my "former" life, I didn't care about price.

3) Where do you find your NYX? Particularly those in Pennsylvania…

Well, I get mine at Rite-Aid AKA Edkerd( I still call it Edkerd's) and Ms. Sherry sells it at Almost Pink here in Union.

4) What is your favorite store to buy clothes at and what is your style sense

I love Target. They make the cutest stuff in my size. And not frumpy big booty mom stuff either. I also wish to live in Anthropologie. I love that store. I missed it...just thinking about it! My style sense has changed so many times in the last four years due to so much life upheaval and emotional change. Right now, I'm comfortable, bohemian with slight bit of classic but girly overall.

5) What product(s) will you never buy again and why?

Anything Rimmel. None it works on me. Oh and Clinique skin care, especially that 3-step horror, can burn in hell...:(
