happy birthday daddy

Today is gonna be really hard! I miss you dearly. Happy birthday!

I'm back finally

Hey guys... I missed u ladies so much...It's been a long time I shouldn't have left you.....well the move went Horrendous!!! Everything that could go wrong in a move did, but we finally made it through and I must say I love my new place. LOVE IT!!!! I am a lil eerie of new places though every sound I hear I assume is a mouse (and I swear if I see one I'm out the next day! But it's cute, kinda smaller than normal, but adorable nonetheless. I had to get rid of some things in the move process: my black, glass, and chrome dining room table didn't make the cut:( It was the first thing I ever actually bought myself (furniture-wise) when I was 20. It was fabulous art-deco gorgeousness and now someone else owns it, cause it couldn't fit through the front door:( you can only imagine how I feel



My computer desk supposedly fell apart in transit (or at least that's what the BF told me) as did my 3 year old Wal-mart coffee table LOL which didn't surprise me. So I have resumed my workouts. And it really helps that I live upstairs with no elevator access. So things are FINALLY getting back to normal around these parts.



On to my hair....so I got tired of looking at my own hair seriously it was getting out of control I rocked it for a full....4 1/2 weeks. So Saturday night I did a pre-poo of Cholesterol Conditioner and Coconut oil for about 3-4 hours. Washed with my Mane N' Tail Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner. I moisturized with Wave Nouveau Lotion and sealed with Coconut Oil and went back to what I know and love....wigs. I'm happier there. With my real hair I started to have a LOT of shedding and breakage errrrrr and I was doing everything right I'm just gonna tuck it away for awhile.

So I made a pure luxe order can't wait to display it..I'm really excited to see if the products are as good as everyone else claims they are. Well Hope all is well ladies Stay healthy and beautiful! *muah*

My weekend aka moving really sucks

Ok so this packing thing is ridiculous!!!! You never really know how much JUNK!!! you accumulate until it's time to move. I have been off and on packing all freakin' weekend. Sunday I woke up with a desire to play in make-up a bit (don't ask why since all I did was pack). This is what I got.

Sorry the blending coulda been a lil' better and there's no flash in that one, but eh...you get the picture. So my girl AJ came over and helped me pack while the BF hung out with my big bro (grrrr!!! so unhelpful on this move it's just crazy) so in between what we consider to be heavy lifting, packing, and a quick taco break we of course took time 4 random silly picks



Honestly she went through all my hair and makeup supplies and decided what I needed to get rid of..of course that all went to her. FYI some of the things she took were things she's given me in the past 2 years LOL



Did we get a lot done??? Hmmmm not really LOL, but it was fun. Honestly I don't think I'll be blogging for a few days maybe a week. Once I get the new apartment in order then I'll be able to get a few hauls, and workouts in until then.....dueces

penny for my thoughts....Please???

Okay so not much has been going on here. I haven't been big into my workouts, but my eating has been fairly decent. I have been a good girl at staying in a caloric range of 1250-1600. I have been extremely busy with this whole moving thing and all my extra cash has went to that venture. I'm not very happy with that idea. As I sit her idle saving money my poor MAC wish list grows by the day, and so does my desire to get a sew-in weave (I swear looking at my hair everyday is my version of hell), and do a pure luxe and cherry culture haul. I haven't spent any unnecessary money since in the past two weeks. God I miss online shopping, random trips to Qdoba and Chipotle, and just sheer lightweight shopping recklessness and extra spending money. So rather than date night (which we so kindly alternate paying for in this household we chose to stay in tonight, watch a movie and eat turkey chili dogs and fries (yeah I know, but date night is usually my cheat meal day). So here I am in sweats with a St. Ives clay mask on while I'm DC'ing my hair feeling hella poor uuggh I can't wait till were settled in! The new mailman will be oh so acquainted with me, because I'm gonna have orders coming to the house every damn day. Okay breathe Vee this is just temporary and its very good for your wallet. That's what I have to tell myself to make it through okay I'm done rambling.
