Happy Independance Day America and a patriotic manicure

Happy birthday America!!!

Celebrating a 237th birthday!

 

I hope everyone is having or had a wonderful July 4th.

Nail Polish collection/stash *UPDATE*

I finally filled up my 'used polish' basket. I couldn't cram anymore in and thought I had better update my collection/stash list and get them put away. These are more recent buys and some old buys. I try to use same brands I have already have used so that I can get those out of the way and also make sure I am not getting dupes. Once those are gone I'll start on other brands. Surprisingly, I am getting through these polishes pretty quickly. Sorry no pics. I am very lazy in that respect. Though, if you are interested in any of the colours or have questions, let me know and I will post pics.

Haul #3: Dollar Tree

For those that know me, they know that I do love me some Dollar Tree.

I know the prices are not the best but I have found for cosmetics,

you can't beat $1 + tax!

Here's my latest haul. It was the Sunday of the first outbreak of tornados.

I wanted to post then but then we got hit by another round of tornados the next day.

So, here ya go.

I loaded up on nail polish and a 'feet pod'.

 

Enjoy ...

Happy Father's Day

 

I want to wish all the Father's who do for their family and their kids a very

happy and special Father's Day.

 

I miss you every day daddy!!!

Haul #2: CVS

 

I LOVE me some CVS.

Thankfully, one is near the house and one is near work.

AND now that I think about it, one on about every corner. LMAO!

Yes, the prices are higher than Wam-Lart or Target,

BUT you cannot beat the CVS coupons, CVS bucks, CVS percentage off,

and with those you can use regular manufacture coupons.

PLUS when stuff is on clearance or on sale you are not limited to how you can use the coupons.

That's really nice and helpful with cost.

I usually do pretty good on saving, IF I do my homework before I go in.

It also helps to stick with my list.

I get side-tracked so EASILY!!! LOL! As you can see with the Khroma Beauty.

 

I did buy a bunch of Maybelline products. CVS had 'Buy 1, Get 1 1/2 off'',

and I used quite a few manufactures coupons.

 

The Khroma Beauty nail polishes were a spur of the moment buy.

The entire collection was at the end of an aisle.

I wanted to wait until they went on sale but I couldn't. I'm a sucker for GLITTER nail polish!!!

 

 

 

Top L to R:

Maybelline - Baby Lips Lip Balm in Quenched (05)

Neutrogena Naturals - Acne Cream Cleanser

Oklahoma Tornados

I want to keep this short because things here are just so out of control. As some or most of you know I live in Oklahoma City. Sunday and Monday we we hit with many tornado's.

Sundays tornado hit the Edmond area (15 minutes from me) and the Shawnee area (30 minutes from me). A mobile home park was wiped away. That was an EF4 (166-200 mph).

Mondays tornado was an EF5 (more than 200 mph). The 2 miles wide tornado wiped away most of the city of Moore (15 minutes from me). The devastation is too much for words and the loss of life is heart breaking.

People have been so very generous in donating supplies but as of today, supplies are overwhelming those who are collecting. What is so very needed is MONEY donations.

Please keep in mind that their are scammers out there and that money will NOT reach those in need. IF you would like to make a donation please make it to the OKLAHOMA American Red Cross. Donating to the local chapter keeps the money HERE in Oklahoma and will help those with shelter, food, clothing, necessities etc. Remember these victims have lost EVERYTHING. Can you imagine no toothbrush? No feminine product? No clothing? No pet food? No food? No medication? No car? These people are in desperate need.

MAC Cosmetics styled birthday cake

I work with two amazing ladies. I have worked with both for over a year. We all started out on one team and now we are on a completely different team. Desiree and I are under the same supervisor, while Taiese is under another supervisor.

Anywho, Friday was Desiree's birthday and she received the most perfect cake for her, a make-up cake, specifically a MAC Cosmetics styled birthday cake.

I HAD to blog it and with Desiree's permission and Taiese's photography here it is:

Happy Mother's Day

I'm blessed to have a very special mum. We don't always see eye to eye but she has been there for me in the worst and best of times. I got mum one of the Target/Vera (Neumann) scarves. Mum has always collected scarves, especially when she travled the world. A few years ago I started buying her vintage Vera scarfes. I'm excited that Target did this colloboration. I hope to go back and stock up on a few extras for her.

I don't have 'human' babies but I do have 4 legged babies.

Introducing ...

Sally aka Sally-Monella -

Sally is 2 yrs and 7 months. She is a Rottenees (1/2 Rottweiler and 1/2 Great Pyrenees). I got her when she was 5 months old. I was her 3rd home and now she has a forever home with me. She's a hefty girl at 102 pounds. She snores, slobbers and loves to chew and break up branches. Her favourite toy is a latex chicken. I call it her 'baby', which she carries around and slobbers all over it. She likes to lay her head on me when laying on the sofa. For a big dog she has a very high-pitched bark but a very lovely growl. She likes to patrol the backyard for critters ... raccoons, birds, squirrels and opossums. When she was a pup she usually slept on her back. She does every once in a while now and when she does she snore up a storm or she lets her tongue hang out.

 

 



Lucky aka Merpy/Merple -

Lucky is 1 year and 7 months. She is 27 pounds. I got her as a playmate for Sally. I wanted another female, mixed breed, big dog as her playmate. Mum scoured the paper and found some Pitbull mix/German Shepard mix pips. Mum and I went and looked at the pups. It was so sad. First it was a FREEZING October day and pups were all hiding behind tires. The momma took off when we came on the property. Anyway, Lucky was the only female I could catch. She was so tiny and shivering. I put her inside my hoodie and took her home. Sally fell in love with her. She played momma to her. They get along really well, except when it comes to food.. Though I think Lucky's momma got with another dog because Lucky does not look anything close to Pitbull mix or German Shepard mix. She looks very terrier - Jack Russell to be exact mixed with who knows what else. She has a forever home.

 

 

If you are looking for a pet, please look in your local paper for *free* pets, check out your local animal shelters or foster a pet. I'm amazed at how many previous pets I've had that I have found in my neighbourhood (dumped animals) that nobody has claimed. It's so sad and chicken-shit that a person can just dump an animal.

 

Rawrrrrrr I'm gonna attack your paws!!!
