thanks Debi! no spicey dish for me tonight!! and congrats on selling the deck so quickly! that's insane! the buyer must have been stalking you!BTW Lou~in the meantime avoid acidic and spicy foods which can super irritate lip boo-boo's and make them harder to heal.
Psyched. Just put up a deck for 200.00 and sold it within 3 minutes. Yay, baby!
oh and a post about my fave glosses from mac - Bring Dare To Wear back to MAC
Ooh, Lou! I found a product you would probably LOVE! Nars Matte Velvet Lip pencils. I am in love with them and like them even better than Chubby Sticks! The formula is super nice, they really seem more satin than matte to me, but maybe because I always put a bit of gloss on first, and the colours are great. I wish they would put out more. Highly recommended! New Order should be here any day now. I can't wait. I want that soft pink glitter. I have plans for it!! Must read your blog now!! Today is an icky cramp day but the weather, of course, is now beautiful, cool, dry.
Shadow~We know of at least 4 deaths, possibly more. There is so much rubble and debris and some people missing. Stuff then falls out of the sky 50 miles away, including one woman's checkbook. The finders reached her via the police. She has a checkbook, but now no home, no car. I am so very thankful it did not hit here, but this is just the beginning of summer. I hope nothing else is in store for us. Heartwrenching photos and videos keep coming out.

Debi--I saw some pics on the yahoo. It is so sad about the deaths and all the people that were hurt, and the destruction to so many homes.
Congrats on the fast sell.
Lou--I read your specktra story. I was lovely. How do I reply?

they powder is nice, it is VERY fragrant which was a suprise
i dont really use and all over face powder, but this doesnt seem to make my skin as dry and cakey as others and the compact is beautiful
i dont think i would use the balls as much just cos it isnt very travel friendly

I have Sex Machine matte velvet lip pencil and it is too dry on me on it's own. I have dry lips. It really delivers on colour though!
Lou - the sores usually grow around the lip area from what I know. One of my friend went to see a doctor and was prescribed a 3ml or 5ml lotion that cost $50! She said it didn't help much, in terms of making it heal faster. Another ex co-worker used a more reasonably prices cream and basically took about the same time for it to subside. I'll read about your gloss blog shortly. It's finally Friday!

You all have mentioned the three Nars Velvet Matte Pencils that I have. Roman Holiday, Bettina and Sex Machine, with Bettina being my favourite, at least right now! I also ordered another but I forget the name. I think it is a darker colour, though!! I am off to bed and planning to dream in pink, peach and corals....

It's sad how some breeds get a bad reputation because of people that have trained them to be mean and for fighting. I was just wondering because my daughter spends a lot of time trying to fight the BSL (Breed Specific Legislation) A lot of places want to band certain breeds of dogs in communities and towns. It's a shame that some of the sweetest dogs are considered a bully breed.
Aw poor thing, having to hide from the garden hose. It's funny that your dog trys to kill it. I've always had to put my dog outside when I vacuum. He runs around it trying to bite the bag. He also has always hated when I reach up in the cabinet above our oven and get the sugar container. He doesn't pay any attention when I'm reaching up to any of the others. He watches when I open those doors and if I get the sugar he barks and gets angry. He doesn't care if I pull something else down from there. I'm not sure why he hates it. It's just a plain round Rubbermaid container.
Lou--thanks. I wasn't sure how to reply.

hee hee! that is so strange!! i wonder what that sugar container ever did to hjm?! lol!
today i am feeling a bit more cheery. i think i've been down with a combo of the hours i'm working and of course the fact that i have this stupid lip sore. but luckily i have asked for a day off next week so me and nick can go to a different city together. we will see a movie, have a nice meal and of course i can do some make up shopping to treat myself (a little!!)

^^ Great treat you have planned. Have fun! Please to hear you are cheery!
shadow - quite amusing that your dog barks at the sugar container. lol.
It's finally Friday! I woke up in the middle of the night yesterday thinking it is Saturday morning. Then within a second I realised it was Friday morning and I was thinking, ah I have to wake up early again. I am having dinner with my friend this evening so I have something to look forward to. My stomache hasn't been well recently again because I am nervous and adapting to my new environment and my stomache always gets crazy easily. It's so predictable I get tired of it lol. I know Debi and Lou stomaches act up too when you are stressed right? Is there any chance of the issue be completely solve?
Anyway, have a good weekend! Summer is here at last!

oh goodness! yeah waking up thinking it is a different day is never good!
oh and i wish i knew how to calm my stomach and nerves when i get stressed
and i am so sorry that you are dealing with the same thing right now. that is never fun. sometimes i try reading a magazine on my break and such to take my mind off things. but generally even falling alseep is hard when i'm stressed because it is all that i can think of. lets hope Debi has some wise words for us!

Yup. Good thing is I'm not very stressed out at the moment, maybe just trying to find my feet and settle in. Yeah the quick eating places are usually fast food, right? Maybe you can go to a sandwich bar or something? I don't really know what type of eateries you have there but I hope you both find something you like. I had a good dinner. My friend treated me as she passed her exams. We had japanese ramen (noodles) which was tasty but the place was a bit dead as there were very few customers. It is a Friday night and it should be crowded and lively. On the other hand, it was good that we didn't have to queue and it was quiet and we could chat without having to raise our voices.
Lou~Love that you are taking a day off for you and Nick to play! You need and deserve it. As soon as my cramps clear up I am demanding some fun time from my hubby! lol
Stomachs. Ooh. I get really bad. I mean it can be small or it can become full blown (vomiting) though it has been years since that happened. You really need to get to the root of the problem. Stress plays on our weakest points. Mine is my stomach. Maybe in the womb my lining was never full developed. I am prone to ulcers and will always have problems. I have been hospitalized numerous times for it, having every test under the sun done. But again, everyone is different. For me it is mostly under control, but can flare up at any time. I am guessing when my parents pass will be a time it might get very bad. I have a therapist I see, though I have not seen her in 1 1/2 years. I just haven't really needed to. That gives me someone to vent to, to chat with who doesn't take sides and is trained to work with people with anxiety, to teach me deep breathing (I hyperventilate and panic, which makes my stomach worse), and reading material on stress, anxiety, agoraphobia, panic attacks. The more you understand and realize you are not alone, the more you can understand the vicious cycle panic creates and why you react the way you do. I also have mild IBS so take prescription medicine that calms my stomach plus over the counter Zantac to prevent any peptic ulcers, especially now that I am taking so much motrin for cramps. Make sure you get enough sleep, eat healthy, get exercise, laugh. Find out the stresses in your life, both big and small, and don't let them pile up. Deal with them straight on or you ask for trouble. In a nutshell, we are not going to jump off a bridge or drive into a tree. We get stomach aches, so though no fun, in the scheme of things we are pretty lucky. Our stomachs force us to stop. It is a warning signal that things are not right, so stop and pay attention to what is troubling you and start making a list!!
I hope that helps!

oh my goodness Debi! I had no idea that you struggled so much with your stomach like that. i also agree that seeing a therapist when needed is a good thing to do if things are getting really tough. i used to see one once a week but had my last session a week before i got married. i still have her number and such so if i ever need to go back i know i can/ it really does help just being able to vent like that and get different ideas on things. she used to have me breaking my weird ocd routines too which was very good. and Debi you are very wise when you say to deal with the stresses and know what they are or else they will take over. it sounds so silly but it works. sometimes Nick has me make a list of things that stress me out. then we write down how i can solve them or if something is out of my hands. if it's out of my hands i learn what will be, will be so i learn to ignore it. if i can solve it myself then i take steps to action it.
oh i also find that you guys help me destress - at work if i start getting snappy or just generally stressed i will take five minutes, come on specktra and post a little bit. it helps break up my day and also makes me feel better about not getting a proper lunch break and such. it distracts me and makes me think of happier things!
i hope everybody is all set to have a great weekend!
