Happy Tuesday

 I was supposed to go to the grocery store yesterday (which is at the top of my list of least favorite things to do), but I ran out of time. Had I remembered I had such an important item on my grocery list, I would have made it happen.

I was out of coffee creamer🙃

So good 🙂

Tomorrow marks one week without air on our main floor. ONE WEEK! Temps are reaching mid 90’s outside people.

We keep this set on 67 year round. We sweatin.

Dealing with our home warranty company has been far from pleasant. Nobody wants to have to deal with the insurance companies so nobody wants to accept our job. What do you do other than call, call again, and call again? 🤷‍♀️

So I’ve whined plenty about my dry skin to you guys for a very long time. Yesterday at the doctor he says, “Goodness Carrie your skin is so dry”. Like no duh. He recommended this.

Have any of you tried it? He said to get my shower (and not get out until im prune-ish) and then add this all over while my skin is still wet. After that he said just pat dry with my towel and I will be a new woman. He actually said do this for about a week and THEN I will be a new woman and should only have to do it once or twice a week to maintain. I found it at Walgreens (where I should have grabbed my creamer) for about $10. I’m hopeful!

Before I go, Kate Spade has a surprise sale going on and its BIG! Jewelry from $19 and crossbody bags starting at $49. I have my eye on these bracelets.

 

 Only $29!

Never would I ever…but I did.

Never would I ever…but I did.

I’m sorry I can’t blog today. I almost died this weekend and I haven’t recovered enough to create a post.

Ok not really.

I didn’t almost die, but during that (unbelievably insane) moment I was as good as gone.

I mentioned on Saturday we were renting a lift to do things around the house (because only my husband would think that renting a 60′ lift was necessary for changing lightbulbs 🙄..Love you LP 😘)

There was no way I was getting on that thing. I made that very clear up front.

Fast forward to day 2 when I ended up having to take one for the team because it was waaaayy up there. 😉

YOLO.

It. Was. So. Scary!

After that I mulched and mulched until I finally stopped shaking 🙂

Who needs a gym when you have mulch, a wheelbarrow, and a shovel? No one.

Ever.

I don’t have any goodies to talk about today.

I just wanted to share part of our weekend with you.

I hope yours was a good one 🙂

A shoe everyone can appreciate.

Welcome to the weekend!

We are out and about today doing completely normal things like renting 60′ lifts 🤷‍♀️

I thought I would share my shoes with you while I had a minute. I bought these while out of town last year (last minute) because I forgot to bring anything comfortable to tour The Biltmore. It was on purpose because new shoes 😊

Smart move. These babies are perfection. So easy and so comfortable.

I wear them all the time!

Roxy Bayshore II. I purchased mine at DSW for about $45 and they still have them with even more color choices this year. Mine are Light Gray.

*Size up 1/2 size.

That’s all, just wanted to share ❤️

Have a great Saturday!

Happy ❤ Day!

I woke up a little bit earlier than usual this morning so I could get everyone’s gifts together.

It’s crazy but……part of what you see was already there!! There’s that effort that makes my heart happy. 🙂

He knows me well  ♥ Thanks LP

Question. Why do we (or is it just me) feel obligated to purchase the same thing (junk) every single year?  I do not love my kids more today than I will tomorrow. Or do I? I don’t know. I guess I will let you know how tomorrow goes.  In all seriousness, It’s the same box with raspberry (gross) chocolates when you thought you were getting caramel, the same bears they’ve marked up 50%, and the bags that end up costing more than what’s inside. Is it not a racket or am I all by myself here?

Next year, I’m buying a cookie cake and telling everyone how much I love them.

I would love to get your opinion.

Obviously (I know for the bazillionth time) I’m still trying to figure this blog life out. I originally planned on (and am currently) posting at 6:00pm EST.

How does this work for you?

Would you rather it pop up in the morning? If so, how early?

Several of the blogs I follow post early in the morning and I enjoy waking up to those emails.

Can we take a quick poll?

Thank you!!

 

Last night I was reading over a couple of your messages which led me to thinking about how awesome and supportive you all have been.

So, I want to say thank you. And how else can I thank you other than a giveaway?

You know the products I was bragging on the other night that I received from Sephora? I want to give one of the sets to one of you. Y’all truly make my day, everyday ❤
