Nail files. Week # 336


 This week I have on Essie-Dive Bar. Yes, I'm continuing on with the Essie polish. I actually bought a new silver foil polish (Essie) & wore it & already took it off, so I'll have to wear that again & take a photo.

December goals


It's hard to believe that it's already December & the last month of this year & decade. The years really do fly by the older you get. I'm not going to be doing any year in review posts because this year was horrible. I'm really happy to see it go & I'm looking forward to a better 2020. Here are my monthly goals.

1. Drink more water (still not doing good on this).
2. Less soda.
3. Get together with friends.
4. Plan my vision board.
5. Start using the elliptical machine.
6. Keep de-stashing stuff.
7. Drop off clothes to donate.
8. Bring stuff to Goodwill to donate.
9. Do 5 scrapbook pages.
10. Organize old scrapbook pages.

Friday Favorites

1. I got this c.c. hat recently. I think it's really cute. I have a bunch of c.c hats. All different colors.




2.Word search book. It's very girlie. I loved the cover, I was drawn to it.



3. My fave B&BW Winter candles are Sweater Weather, Hot Cream & Cocoa, Hot chocolate, Baby it's cold outside, Red Velvet cupcake & Black Cherry merlot. Hot chocolate is an older 1, so I'm not sure if they still have it & not sure about Baby it's cold outside or Red velvet cupcake either. Those are a few years old. Sweater weather & Black cherry merlot are 2 of my all-time fave candles.

Nail files. Week # 335.


This is a new polish that I got this week. It's OPI-You've got that glas-glow. In the picture it looks more pinkish-mauve & in person it looks more of a taupe-light brown. It might be a little too light for my nails.

Busy week

I've been MIA this week. We've had appointments every day this week except tonight. So I've gotten real behind in things. Plus I'm dropping T off at school & picking her up. I'm trying to get on a new routine. Here are some pics from this week.
