No, I just watched most of the Instagram highlights and took notes. I’m cheap, lol. I must say, the spin mop plus hot water and powdered Tide cleaned my vinyl floors soooo well! And I scrubbed old rust stains from hard water out of the inside of my toilet bowls yesterday using Barkeepers Friend and they are sparkling! I’ve tried so many things to get rid of those hard water stains and that’s the only thing that worked! I had to let it sit for a while and use a lot of elbow grease.
I bought a dining table and chairs yesterday, along with a buffet and a new rug. We're redecorating our living room too, so I'll probably buy more furniture in the next week or so.
In less expensive purchases, I bought a pair of black jeans from AE, a bunch of tops from Torrid, and several new prints that I need to get framed at some point.
I just bought a workout tank and athletic masks from Athleta and a t-shirt from Banana Republic. It's more than I would normally spend on workout gear (I generally shop clearance racks at Kohls) but I've been living in sportswear these days, I figured I could splurge a bit. I also don't really need more masks at the moment, but it seems like the WA state mask order is going to be in place for a LONG time, so I want options.
A Pride T-shirt and a pride long sleeve T-shirt hoodie
24 pack of colored Bic ballpoint pens
A bunch of cleaning supplies because GoCleanCo on Insta has turned me into an obsessive deep cleaner. I spent hours today deep cleaning our bathrooms, including the inside of the toilet tanks. Next up is laundry stripping. Yep, I realize it’s insane. Oh well, I have nothing else to do and am stuck in this damn house thanks to being high risk.
I'm obsessed with goclean too. Tomorrow I am laundry stripping a ton of work clothes and am super excited about it. Who the hell am i???

spindle92 Let me know how it goes! I probably won’t try it until next weekend. I cleaned the dishwasher today and took apart the filters, scrubbed the hard water stains, etc. I have no idea who I am anymore either.
I've bought a variety of colors of Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Liquid Lipstick from Amazon. Normally, I put on lipstick, walk to work, get to the office, do a few things, make a cup of coffee, no longer have lipstick on. This stuff stays until the end of the day. The only time it's come off early was when I put on chapstick. Doesn't rub off on my mask either.
re: goclean - I did the tide/bleach/water mixture to clean and hated it. What a streaky mess. Basically her power of cleaning is that you're actually cleaning.

So my house is basically a major disaster area right now, but I like to get fixated on weird deep clean projects while the house falls around me lol! I followed them on insta, but it seems like most good tips are in their stories? I went back through May and didn’t see much. Do I have to check in all the time to see the stories? I don’t get why people post on insta stories.

readyin07 , just watch the highlight bubbles on her profile. They’re named for what she’s cleaning in them. She does do daily stories but the main categories are in the highlights.
I bought my first Louis Vuitton purse. We cancelled our trip to Europe and I'd planned to buy one in Paris. Of course I barely leave the house so I have carried it to the mailbox a few times.

Which one? 🙂
I actually bought it resale because I loved it more than the ones that I saw new. It's the Damier Ebene Rose Ballerine Hobo. This isn't mine but one I found online:
I bought this nail oil and the eye gel after seeing them recommended online a few times. I figured the price was right and if they didn't work I wouldn't be out much.
I am really impressed with both. I haven't even been as diligent as I should be with either of them, and I could see differences pretty quickly....like within a few days.
Other than that, I have bought Penzey's spices, some random bread baking related supplies, a couple of oversize t- shirts, and some masks. So far we have bought 3 or 4 different styles of masks, and I am still searching for one that works well for DH's apparently difficult to fit face.
In the past month or so I've bought (for myself, there's a bunch of other boring house/kid stuff):
a print (and ordered a custom frame for it, but it's not here yet) candles Mixtiles Penzey's spices ON workout pants/dress/tops
Amazon: RBX yoga/workout tanks a table lamp for my "new" home office (I was in our regular home office, but we rearranged and I'm now in what was a craft/project/play/occasional guest room) super soakers for backyard water fights more frames for some prints I hadn't gotten around to framing yet replacement phone case
Uniform twins! Gray jeans + black everlane Tshirts for lyyyyyfe!
Excellent! I forgot I also bought shoes from Allbirds. I wore chucks in warmer weather for years but they aren’t supportive enough now that I’m an old lol.
Tell me more about everlane! It looks classic and I dig it.

I’ve bought almost nothing in the pandemic. I just bought another pair of athleta pants and the finally got their 3 pack of masks. I also purchased my wedding veil from Etsy. Last item was a headset mic from Sweetwater for yoga teaching and health coaching so I don’t have to share with others. And I’ve been doing so much at home I wanted my own :)
I need more yoga clothes but I want to do a TJ Maxx run before I start integrating back into seeing clients. Seems silly to overspend and I’ll need to leave the house at some point besides groceries 🤷♀️

It’s super classic basics. I really like the shirts and jeans I bought there. They were exactly what I was looking for and nothing more. The shirts ran a little small - I debated between small and medium and I’m glad I bought medium.
[mention]princessbubbleyum [/mention] that bag is gorgeous! I’m waiting for the speedy b 25 to come back in stock. Was supposed to be my Mother’s Day gift, but it’s been out of stock.
I just got my work bonus so I think I’m going to get a Hermes bracelet and then do elfa in our bonus room closet.
I do, however, have a ridiculous collection of flavored coffee creamers in my fridge. I'm not even a fancy Starbucks drinker. The only times I get a frilly drink from Starbucks is when I'm out with a friend. But waking up every morning to the equivalent of Groundhog Day? I needed a change. I always wake thinking about my morning cup of coffee. Now I have flavors!
DS is an only, and we are probably going to order one of those giant inflatable water slides. That's as much for me as it is for him, as it will keep him occupied. That's the trend during Covid. Things for DS that give us a bit of peace.

A menstrual cup- figure the time to overcome any learning curve is while I’m stuck at the house, first cycle went pretty well with it last week so I just ordered some reusable pads for overnight backup and those tail end light days.
I may have to check out Go Clean after reading this but I’m partial to Clean My Space on YouTube, her S pattern and all purpose spray (dish soap, water, little EO for scent) are part of my daily life.
