great words of wisdom

So everyone knows that I creep all over the internet and random stuff.  Like literally, most  of it is random from like 3 galaxies over in a different system.  Well, while looking at random stuff I came across this gem of inspiration.  It's raw and humorous and true.  I love every single little itsy bitsy piece of it honestly.  So enjoy and walk away from this with some inspiration, and some love for yourself.  Take pride in yourself and be strong for yourself. So with further ado please enjoy this little read down below...

May Birchbox

So this month's box was pretty good.  It's all aimed towards healthy skin and being in the sun.  With that came lots of SPF products and vitamins.  I wasn't sure I really wanted to even purchase a box this month because I haven't been too thrilled about the stuff I've been receiving.  I mean yes I have been
getting good quality products but it just wasn't stuff I planned on going to buy once my sample was gone.  I'm very pleased with this months box though and already plan on purchasing the Smarty Pants vitamins andddd the Supergoop CCC Daily Moisturizer. 

Germany!

So it's definitely been a minute since my last post.  I've been going crazy with everything going on lately.  From finishing a novel and writing a review on it for GL magazine; to getting my orders approved for Germany.   That's the exciting news :)

The Little Things

falling asleep to the rain

forehead kisses

getting lost in a good book

finding a quote or song that explains how I feel at that moment

the butterflies I get when I see him

Doors, doors, doors

They're the first thing a person will interact with at your house.  Whether to stare and push the doorbell or to knock on it.  You have to make an impression for people as soon as they walk up.  Now yes you have landscaping and what not, but your door does have some impact.  Especially for those

Tubs...with feet

Yes you read correctly.  I've always had this weird thing I guess where I want a old school bathtub that has feet and sits off the floor.  I'm not sure why and honestly it'll only ever happen if I remodel or build my future home.  They are just too neat looking not to love!  Elegant and charming, and

Top 10 on replay this week

So here we go into our second week of May.  I've found a ton of new songs recently released that I simply CAN NOT (yes the caps are needed to stress the importance of these artist songs) get enough of currently.  I love all music.  From country to dubstep.  I seriously have the largest variety of music on my phone then anyone I know.  I can stick it on shuffle but when I'm with certain groups of

Pineapples

Pineapples.  I think my mini addiction to this fruit started last week when I came across a post on College Prep.  I mean I've always loved pineapples in general.  They taste good, they're healthy and we grow them in out backyard.

Artwork

So I finally decided to use the scanner my printer comes with.  My mother bought me the printer as a Christmas present this last year (2013).  I was so happy and thrilled too.  She knows how I am about printing things so that they are all neat and cleanly organized.  Well as the title says; I scanned a

Personal writings

So for a long time I'll be bored and have thoughts or writings that pop into my head.  Yes I do have this blog and could easily make another one for personal use that's set to private, but I've just always written it into a journal I received as a gift a few years ago.  Nothing wrong with putting some pen to paper to get creative juices flowing.  I feel as though I can now publicly put what I write

summer loves....

so we're definitely heading into summer here south of the Mason Dixon line.  With hot weather, lake boats, lightin' bugs and flowers blooming all around.  Those days where the lights at the ball field flicker all night long.  Where school's out for vacation and summer love is all around.  When

Be green this summer

 and by green I mean share the love by planting.  Whether it be succulents in your windows, small planters on your porch, a garden in the yard or a greenhouse out back.  Planting is a big to-do for my family, and has been since I was a child.  I can't help but love watching the plants grow.  It's simply

Indigo

My color obsession currently.  I'm not sure why I love it so much but I notice that I'm being drawn to the boldness of it more and more.  It's something that stands out but is calming.  I just can't get enough of it though and I'm not complaining about it one bit.  But between indigo, mint, and

Cactus update

So if you read my last entry about Thomas wanting a cactus, you'd also know we planned on getting him one as a surprise.  Well like I stated my step mom and I went to Home Depot early today and

Cactus

So Thomas has had this really weird obsession with having a cactus for his room in the barracks lately.  Not really sure what brought this on but my step mom and I have decided that we are going to get him one as a surprise. 

Back from Dallas

So I left for Dallas on Friday night around 5pm.  I arrived around 4am.  I actaully managed to be wide awake the whole 10 hours even though I was jamming out to Volbeat with my headphones in all throughout Arkansas.  I didn't end up falling asleep til

Words to remember ...

Quotes.  Sayings.  Anything that I can find that speaks for me is something I love.  I have a problem putting my thoughts onto paper and into words.  I can put them on a canvas all day long with art, but when it comes to actually writing it down I fall quite short.  I've never been much of a writer though.  I mean on the test in school growing up I always scored a 5-6 out of 6.  I was always ranked higher then most, but I've never been one to use

big fancy words or intellectual insight to make the reader feel as though the person writing this is very well educated.  I've always used a less extensive vocabulary and just gone with whatever pops in my head.  Half the time I wonder why I even have a blog.  I mean do people really want to know what I have to say, do they even care and is it even of importance.  Do I sound uneducated when I write this?  Or does it really even matter what or how I write.  I was always told growing up that the way a person writes is solely based upon that individual.  Everyone writes different, everyone sees things in a different perspective, describes things in a different manner and relates to things in a different way.  Just because one person may not like the way something was written but a person doesn't mean that the next person will view it the same way.  

 Time for some quotes that I absolutely adore at the moment:  

APRIL BIRCHBOX

So my April Birchbox finally came in today.  Took a minute because of the move and the order was sent to my old address then had to be forwarded to my new one.  You know how it is....

but I was so excited about receiving this months box.  The theme was RAINY DAYS and the box couldn't have been jam packed with anything better then what it was.

So I guess I should start this with a tiny (but probably large) update on whats been going on the last few months.
