Happy New Year! I always wonder how far into the new year is it safe/acceptable to keep saying that! A friend reminded me that I haven't written anything so far this year, so I'm here to remedy that situation. So far, the year is off to a great start for me. I found out last... Continue Reading →
Buffet, TV Stand, or Whatever!
OMG where did this year go?! We'll blink and it'll be Christmas next week. I hope y'all had a great year. It's been a mix of highs and super lows for me. I lost my mama 2 months ago. It's been a blur since then, and writing a blog has been the furtherest thing from... Continue Reading →
Magic rollers produce magical results!
Thank you sweet baby Jesus the humidity is gone, which means I can wear my hair straight without it puffing up for the next few months! I must say, my stylist Tish does the bomb.com blowouts. My hair stays straight for at least 2 weeks, and I could probably get an extra week out of... Continue Reading →
Extra storage space for sunnies, or anything else!
Over the last couple years I've become obsessed with buying just about everything from stores like Lidl and Aldi. I'm such a regular now that I've become familiar with items and when they may show back up in the stores. I headed to Lidl last week looking for a shelf that I had seen about... Continue Reading →
Old blush. Hello new eyeshadow!
We've all been there. Buying products that end up in the cosmetics graveyard. I've gotten better about impulse buying, but I still have some items I'm trying to figure out how to give them a second life instead of totally wasting my money. I've never been much of a blush wearer, but a few years... Continue Reading →
It’s (almost) my birthday and I deserve new shoes
I'm officially in the age range I thought was old when I was young...but at least I've got good genes! My dear sweet dad was 78 when he left this world, but I swear he looked no older than 60. My mama is in her 70's and not one wrinkle in sight, so I'm thankful... Continue Reading →
Bye bye rough feet!
Y’all. Since forever I’ve blamed my callused feet on wearing heels. Since I’ve been barefoot for nearly 2 years, I’ve learned that’s a lie. I just have rough feet I guess! I get monthly pedicures and even pay extra for callus removal, but nothing ever quite gets them 100% smooth which is annoying! Plus hubby’s... Continue Reading →
North Carolina’s Crystal Coast: You must see it!
To say that I love the beach is an understatement. If I had a gazillion dollars, I'm quite sure I'd buy one of those gigantic beachfront mansions to call home. Since I'm not a gazillionaire, I have to settle for getting to the beach as often as we can. Last weekend, we took our first... Continue Reading →
Fun times in Hilton Head
Since we're limiting travel to drivable trips only, Hilton Head has become a fave beach destination. It's only about a 3.5 hr drive from Charlotte, the beaches are clean and beautiful, and we've been so much that we've gotten to know the island pretty well. The only drawback is the food. We haven't found any... Continue Reading →
An afternoon at Veronét Vineyards
To know me is to know that I love wine! I'm no expert, but I at least know what tastes good. I typically go for sweet and bubbly. A new vineyard opened in 2019 and I have been wanting to go check it out. Hubby and I finally got to go on Saturday. Veronét Vineyards... Continue Reading →
