I'm staying away from that Makeup board. It will only lead me down a dark path of spending money on things I really don't need. It's so tempting though! Is it bad that I'm already scheming on how I can get a new pair of shoes for Mothers Day. Its a month away but it's a good reason right?

I'm in the Gateway city as if 11pm and staying another night. I've already pawned 2 ITunes off on strangers, got 2 free shots, a free hotel room from points, a free milkshake, and am comadeering a guest room for tomorrow night. I'm thinking my house sitter will be in my claw foot tomorrow night as payment for watching the place. Tomorrow is free lunch, band practice, and a call from my cousin overseas with an invite to his flat. I can not wait. majick143 just PM me you shoe size. A plane ticket and raiding the new shoes I can't wear that still have tags and raiding the outlet is much cheaper. Plus, we have Beer Halla mini golf and BBQ.
How did I miss that there is a makeup board? I already learned something new over there. I never wear eye shadow because I didn't know how to apply it to my hooded eyes and I felt like you couldn't see it anyway. I just watched a tutorial for eye shadow for hooded eyes and I am going to give it a try.
My shopping has been OUT OF CONTROL lately. I need to reign it in. I bought the taupe Tod's that I've been eyeing and they were too brown so I said F it and went magenta. I love my Tod's so I know these will be a good investment. I'm taking a bunch of stuff to a consignement store today so I'm hoping they take a lot and are able to sell it.
cab1217 have you ever used Geurlain make up? I bought their BB cream based on phenomenal reviews, I'm curious to see what it's like.
I'm so tired. I feel like I am going to fall asleep while I'm driving to work each morning. I didn't used to feel like this but lately it's been a constant. I'm also gaining weight like crazy but I think that's because I'm actually managing to eat more than a meal a day lately. I guess I need to move my physical up.
I went over to the makeup board and spent $30 on NYX stuff that I don't need. But I've been wanting to try it and it was deeply discounted, so I forgive myself. Lol

It's the best! Beer Halla (PGA joke) is at this dive bar/BBQ joint with communal tables, corn hole, and ping pong/beer pong. Ed Lee from Top Chef and The Mind of a Chef who owns 610 Magnolia and Milkwood says it's the best BBQ in the state. The country club set shares tables with bikers and the college Greeks and hippies are there too. The food is off the charts. The shoe outlet is too. They had the cutest little red Burberry Mary Janes for Mini BCarp for 60% off last time I was there and the SW boots were all $75 a pair including booties.
I've been buying house stuff to decorate. The new house is so different and DH stole so much stuff to take to his work apartment. Our old house is 1 of 2 in the price range, type, and school district. We had a buyer seriously interested, but no offer. The schools are some of the highest ranked in the state with top sports programs. Sell stupid house so I can really shop!

Pip! Tods are on my bucket list of must own pieces.

I will! They're so comfy, so I'm hoping the magenta color is more fun! This is the first pair of drivers that I've purchased, all of my others are the ballerinas which are so worth the money. Amazing shoes!

No I haven't! And I swear I've tried literally everything lol. Now you'll have to tell me if it's any good!
While at the mall today I realized that J.Crew is like my winter store, and Lilly Pulitzer is my summer store. Nordstrom and Anthro are my standards year round. And then I realized that this profound realization was so ridiculous that only y'all and my cousin would understand.

Have them check your thyroid, those were some of my first symptoms.
I miss shopping, so much. Southern California was fantastic and where we are now has nothing. :/ I have a feeling me and nordstrom.com are going to become very close
I took a bath with my almost 3 year old tonight and she just noticed that I have pubic hair and she doesn't. She was so disgusted and disturbed by this and I laughed so hard I started crying, which disturbed her even more.
I'm feeling really anxious about the Lilly for Target sale. Lol. I feel like my local Target is going to have nothing since it's not a popular style in the pacific north west. However, there are about a half dozen items I really really want to have...or at least try on. I'm wearing this dress to a wedding in Maryland in August and I want the gold sandals and little gold fish purse to go with it.

This is me. I normally don't even care for Lilly but I must have all the things. I hope Target has their shit together and the site isn't crashing when it launches.
Eta- I also get anxious that I'll buy what I want and my order will get cancelled. So I'll shop in store as backup.
Singapore. It's just a tiny bit different than living here I'm stressing over putting our house on the market, selling our cars, etc. I cleaned out a "junk" drawer in the bedroom last night.
Oh wow! Yep definitely different. But think of all of the places you will be much closer to where you can go diving! That should be a nice base for lots of cool travels. But I am sure there is lots to figure out to make it happen. Would this be an indefinite move or just for a few years?

That's fascinating!!! You guys are so brave and adventurous. I'm way too chicken to live in another country. That's so weird to say that though. I've never given it much thought but when you said that, I was like OMG SCARY! LOL!!

I have a random to share that is probably not that interesting but I have to get it out. Today I connected with a friend who happens to be my husbands ex-girlfriend (long story) and the former close friend of my sister in law. My sister in law does not like me. She never has and it's really not been a secret. We are polite and put on a good 'show' but deep down we have no use for each other. She's a mean person that devalues others to make herself feel better. She told me to my face that no one is as happy as I pretend to me, I'm a total fake. Which I'm honestly just a positive happy person by nature. I can't help it. I do however have feelings and I can be sensitive so it does hurt when she's mean. The friend I connected with today confirmed all the awful things that I know SIL has said behind my back but I never had proof of. What she says is not only incorrect but it's ugly and hurtful when I've done nothing but try my hardest to be accepted and liked by her (and my mother in law). I shouldn't care anymore but it's hard when it's family and you HAVE to see them from time to time and our kids love each other so it's unfair not to see them. I just don't know how to proceed knowing these horrible things she says about me. I'm still processing.

I want to throat punch her! You're awesome and I hope you know that. :heart:

Thanks Doll I really do appreciate that. It's stupid how someone that you know is not worth feeling bad about, still makes you feel bad.
