LOL Lou...I was thinking the same thing! But I crawled back into bed and just got up! I haven't even had breakfast yet!! I have 4 boxes going out. When those are done I will put up a few more batches. I can't see my den floor again, but I also want to keep it all organized and not send the wrong thing to the wrong person! Hubby is going to grab more bubble wrap, tape and boxes today so I can keep packing them up! And I can gather up the next bunch, photograph them, stuff them out there! I've been wanting to do this for years and it seemed like such a daunting process, but it is going quite well...better than I thought considering the economy!

I definitely have to look at MUFE online and then try something, though I just went nutty for Nars and Bobbi Brown stuff. I seem to be making the rounds! I keep finding something else rather unique to add to my MU collection. And I got my beloved glittery ice cream key chain from Coach, so I am a happy girl!

Miss KittyKit~Happy Birthday! It sounds like you have wonderful plans set and having a lovely and pampering day! Make the most of it!!

Thanks ElvenEyes

 

[Nzsallyb]

im not too sure if there will be a MAC counter for a while in christchurch, it was right were alot of the home footage of the quake is coming from, and there is talk of the CBD being closed for months and months. and my favourite hello kitty shop was right across the road!

Prada is nice but Chanel is still my dream brand! I want a Chanel bag so much! Or maybe some sunglasses! Perhaps they would be more affordable?! lol!

lol the giant cookie is funny! But you can cut it into pieces so it is not entirely spoilt, it is just different. I would love the homemade carrot cake and chatting over tea! Thanks I don't feel dizzy anymore, but drowsy now. lol. Yeah actually I find it worse to lie in bed when I'm dizzy, as everything spins more. If I elevate my head it is better. Those designer bags are always subjected to regular intervals of price hikes, like makeup. I think sadly there is no chance they will become more affordable. I want the Chanel sunglasses and the faux pearl necklaces. I think it is smart of you to let the students know they aren't welcome to sit at the sofa like that! lol. The sony store where I bought my tv had a big sofa too facing a 3D tv as they want customers to experience it. But later on when I went there again the sofa was gone, and they replaced it with two stands mounted with 3D glasses so we just stand and watch. lol.

Has anyone watched true grit? I'm considering watching it and also Adjustment Burea this coming week or next. I had a personal crispy hawaiian pizza for lunch at pizza hut on Friday. It satisfied my craving for comfort food. Shall think about what I want for next week.

Sally--congrats on the new job. I'm glad you'll be closer to everyone. It is so sad about all that is going on there. I know that is very scary with so many missing.


Kittykit--Happy Birthday!! sounds like you had a great day,nice gifts, and yummy dinner.


Debi--you are doing se well on your selling, that's great. Sounds like you got some great goodies. I'll have to pop over to the other thread to see the pics of your haul.

I am pleased to say that the MUFE area of my Sephora is very clean, in fact the entire store is well kept. The sales people there are very friendly and they always have plenty of people to help and give samples. I think if your store is not well kept you should email their customer service. I think most companies would want to know if there is a problem that is turning customers away and especially one that is easy to fix. It appears that the store manager is not making sure the areas are wiped down and things in place so it looks tidy. I wouldn't think Sephora would want customers walking away with the feeling that things looked sloppy and unclean. I've only been to five or six but they were all well kept and lots of sales people.

Susanne--glad to see you back. I hope you are over your illness now.

yes you are very lucky for having the black flap bag!!! i'm green with envy! and yeah we did cut the cookies up but they are square shaped cookies! lol! and they only look good when upside down because that is where the choc chips are!

and yeah i know lots of the stores just got some stands with the glasses on that you look through. i dont like that though i like to sit people down on the sofa and hand them the glasses (i always make sure they are clean too!) and then i watch the demo with them! it's great seeing their reactions sometimes! although one lady was scared of fish and we had an 'aquariam' demo so she nearly pooped herself and squealed! i was trying so hard not to laugh because she must have been terrified!

i havent seen true grit. is that the western film? if so i am not that into westerns so i most likely wont see it. oh and yay for the pizza! sounds very yummy!!

oh as you know lst week me and nick ate out a few times and i had the odd treat even though i'm dieting. when i weighed myself this morning i was so scared because i thought i would have put on about 3lbs. but i actually lost 2lbs! how weird is that?! i am still going to be working very hard this next week though just in case it all catches up with me. so i will be back to exercising each night and also making sure i eat no junk food!

 

[Miss QQ]

^^Heehee it's funny when you say the cookies look nice only when they're upside down. We don't like choc chip cookies which we can't see any choc chips. I believe you will be a proud owner of a flap bag one day when the time is right! And don't forget to share the pics! Yes it is better to sit down to experience the 3D show and you are very nice for making sure the glasses are clean. lol what fish was in the clip? Sharks? When I purchased the tv, I received a non-fiction 3D movie of the ocean and they featured sharks but I've only watched 10 mins. I need to watch it, the graphics are excellent. Yes True Grit is a western film. Congrats on having lost 2lbs! Keep out the good work! I'm so weird, sometimes I feel like vomitting after I exercise (especially if I over exercise) but I have nothing to vomit out. Perhaps I'm too hungry?

shadow- good that your MUFE counters are all well maintained.

Tomorrow is the Oscars award! I'm excited about the clothes and makeup.

I'm excited too! I love the Oscars--especially the red carpet coverage right before it. I'll be tuning in for sure. Plus, I'm up for some James Franco

 

[ElvenEyes]

Good morning! lol Last night we hung about and watched Edward Scissorhands and the theme music is still stuck in my head. Tonight I actually will watch the Academy Awards because a lot of good films came out and well, any excuse to watch Colin Firth, right? I have not seen The King's Speech yet, but plan on getting the DVD. I loved the trailers, so I am cheering him on. We have and saw Inception, Alice in Wonderland, Secretariat, The Social Network and dying to see The Black Swan. So...I feel like I at least know what is going on this year!! Thus, must get a bunch of stuff done today. It is snowing again and has been all night. We have another 7 inches out there. It looks like a fantasy land! And yes, it will be time to put more tarot up for sale! Yay!

Our Sephora was gorgeous when it first opened. I remember it mostly attracted working women and above at that time. It was neat, lots of sales people, glittering clean and they were always doing makeovers. They were so busy that you had to make appointments days in advance to get one. I never got the chance since we usually go there more on a whim. I never see anyone getting their face done or even any of those stations set up with the chairs and all. Not sure what is up with that. Except that everyone puts a bunch of makeup on themselves with the little Q-tips or sponges and make a mess of the entire place. The floor used to be clean and glossy and now it is filthy. I'll buy some things but I go with a list and get out fast. Mostly I order online. Then I go to Macy's to look about and have a saleswoman tracing my every step, constantly telling me about this colour and that colour, none I might add that would ever look good on me. So I get fed up, can concentrate on looking at products and they lose a sale! I want to check out Estee Lauder items but the saleswomen are seriously about 70 years old, with a face full of wrinkles and foundation that looks orange on them. If this is the "face" of Estee Lauder, no thank you! Run, Debi, run!!

Time to get my day started. I know I had questions, but they flew out of my head as soon as I came online. Isn't that the way?

oh i hope i had a flap bag one day! even if it is when i am too old to go out anywhere with it! lol! and the fish in the clip were just normal little fishes! tropical pretty fish! like nemo!! that is what i found so amusing! it wasnt a big shark she was freaked by! it was the little cute ones! and i love to watch the oscars to see what the hair and make up looks like! i will have to watch it tomorrow on the movie channel at work.

 

[Miss QQ]

^^ lol I watched Edward Scissorhand too when I was young, my brother was the one who told me to watch it, and I was scared too! Maybe the lady felt the fish were swimming towards her, so the 3D effect must be excellent! Enjoy watching the Oscars, on Star Movies, right? I don't have the channel, only Starworld which telecasts the redcarpet only.

Let's all be charmed by Colin Firth! Maybe he will win the award?

I'm excited too! I love the Oscars--especially the red carpet coverage right before it. I'll be tuning in for sure. Plus, I'm up for some James Franco

He's cool - the actor as the green goblin jr in Spiderman right? I want the watch the actual award show but too bad no tv channels here is showing it. I will have to find if it is available online. Luckily, I can watch the red carpet on E! on cable tv so yay! Let's share our favourite gowns & makeup later.

 

[ElvenEyes]

I think we should all dress up to watch the Oscars. lol My husband said he will be wearing his usual sweat pants and flannel shirt. I said I might go glittery to the tv!

Lou~I am sending the Estee Lauder Lady to you...with a bag of Milkweed...

 

[ElvenEyes]

Yesterday's face (with bangs too short) included MAC WW eyeshadow qaud, Coygirl blush (rather dark on me), Sweetie l/s and Copacabana Multiple by NARS for that dewy look!

 

[LMD84]

he was the green goblins son in spiderman but i think he dressed up as some kind of baddy in the 3rd movie because he is pissed that peter is spiderman and is 'responcible' for his dads death and the channel is called sky movies in the uk and because i dont have any sky channels at home i shall have to watch it at work! they usually spend the whole day after the oscars repeating it because it happens in the middle of the night for us!

 

[shadowaddict]

Lou--congrats on the 2lb lose. I go from eating healthy to really bed not healty. Just now my daughter brought home take out fried cheese sticks and then didn't want them all and of course after smelling them while she was eating them I ate the rest and that was after eating a chicken & biscuit she brought me Where is my self control?

I laughed when you said no not the Hello Kitty store but then it reminded me that our big flood last year wiped out our CCO. I really miss it. I only went about 2-3 times a year but at least I knew it was there. They haven't decided if they are going to rebuild that mall. They quickly remodeled & reopened the Opryland Hotel but I'm sure they were losing major money while closed as it is giant and many conventions are held there.

Debi--I cannot imagine our gorgeous Colin not winning. If he doesn't I will be so furious. I haven't seen King's Speech but can't wait to watch it.

Little Mary Jane-- James Franco, the Green Goblin is so cute and very funny. He will be playing Richard Ramirez the serial killer in Night Stalker. The book by the same title shows how evil this man truely is so I can't wait to see how accurate he is portrayed. Yes I love classic lit as well as true crime. My husband thinks I'm wacko I only read the well written and well researched ones not the ones that focus on the gore and too much like some of the horror movies that are done. I like the investigative aspect of it and the trial. I want a writer to be accurate and explain the crimes without the sensational media crap.

Hi ladies! Sorry it's been a while. Happy belated birthday, Ms Kitty!!!

I'm feeling a lot better, although I'm still trying to kick my cough - I have to go for lung testing at the hospital tomorrow morning and Friday morning... hopefully we can figure something out then!

I treated myself to a manicure today - I've had fake nails for a few weeks because I got them done for some interviews, so I had them removed today and got my nails sparkly and pink to keep me happy. It worked. lol

I'm excited for the Academy Awards tonight, but mostly to see what everyone is wearing! I'll be fast asleep before they get to any of the awards I actually care about, so I'll just catch up tomorrow morning

I'm off to get some dinner made and readings done - I'm back to school this week, so I've got to get caught up on some work!!! Missed all of you! Hope you all had amazing weekends!

Jen~Good to hear you are feeling better and hope you continue to progress in a positive direction! This is a hard time of the year to knock something like this out of your system. Keep getting better.

I need a manicure of my own and sparkly pink is what I plan to go with. All the places that used to do manicures around here are closed down. With the economy they way it is people just were not bothering to spend money on things like that and do it themselves now. I found an amazing fatty nail creme by Dior at Sephora the other night. You rub it into your nails and cuticles to soften them up. What a fabulous way to nourish them after all the remover we use! I noticed a difference after using it only for about 30 minutes! It is greasy and you can't do much else until you wash your hands off!

I am off to watch the awards. But I decided to use some pigments for my Oscar night, so when I blink you get a flash of shine and glitter! Hubby said it was Red Carpet Worthy. Sadly the flash washes it out...

 

[LittleMaryJane]

Love your Oscar look, Debi!

I'm kinda underwhelmed by everyone this year... No one REALLY stood out to me from what I've seen on the Red Carpet.
