We're headed up to Niagara Falls and I pulled out my Uggs to pack but it's warm up there. I think nights will be
cool like here, but I suppose medium to light weight layers will do the trick.
I gave up packing! I had my suitcase on the sofa in the den and Abby jumped in to it

Hello ladies!
Sorry that I kinda fell off the face of the earth. I had such a horrible month that makeup wasn't really on my mind. It was a good day when I managed to put anything on my face at all. I had the feeling every shitty thing that could happen happened. Well, I still did my nails. And I'm still looking forward to our honeymoon that'll start in 6 days! It will be so nice to be away from everything and lying on the beach. That's the one thing that keeps me going right now.
One of the things that completely floored me was that my best friend was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of cancer. She's two years older than me and has three little kids and if anybody of you could spare some positive thoughts or prayers for her, it would be really appreciated. First thing I'll do when we'll return from Hawaii is to visit her and help her with everthing she needs help with - it pains me a little bit that I can't be there sooner!
Med, I saw your post that included the look with Guerlain's Geraldine. That's a Rouge G, right? Are these worth the splurge? I'm quite unimpressed with TF lippies, but want to treat me to something really nice and luxe in duty free.

Yes, Geraldine #77 is a Rouge G and it's my favorite of the four that I have. The formula is smooth and long-lasting, >4 hrs w/eating and drinking, the pigmentation is great and this color is really very pretty. The packaging is another story. While I enjoy having a mirror housed within the case, I find it bulky and heavy. On the upside, there's no way for it to get lost in your purse.
