Goodbye...

This is my last blog here. I couldn't figure out how to add links how I wanted here, so I searched for other blog sites. I found this new one the be easier to figure out. Maybe it's just me and my lack of knowledge on here but oh well I switched.
Here's my new blog.

Not so bad...

I'm alive. I made it through showing my makeup to ladies...umm two ladies. lol I wasn't really expecting many ppl, I've learned from experience;) At least this is my own business though so I don't have to worry about finding ppl to join me!yuck! If they like then great and if they don't... oh well! I made enough well worth going, soI can't complain.
I can't believe tomorrow is already Friday! Hope everyone is done with this virus now, they seem to be. We are going to try out a new church this weekend, it's called Cornerstone, it's the same name as the one in Ames only it's in Boone. I believe there's no relation between the two. Oh I hope it's good!!!! The other Cornerstone we loved except they were not a child friendly service :( We gained so much from their services, but I would get paged out every time and soon as I made it to the nursery(which was fast) L was crying hysterically. I couldn't leave her there anymore and could not stand sitting in their family room or cafe it was sooooooo boring. I could just watch a service at home in my pj's if I wanted to watch it on tv. Ya know?

Nervous

This afternoon I am meeting with a lady or some ladies from Phil's work and showing them my makeup. I hope they don't expect me to be an expert :-S I am far from it! I have been reading up on make-up tips and will practice some on myself today. Hopefully the kids cooperate, Jazmyn keeps saying she is sick, I thought it was maybe because I had to wake her up to drive Phil to work and she was too tired. She's been laying on the couch all morning and well now is asleep. She was gagging for a bit but I gave her some Nux Vomica, for some reason that remedy ALWAYS helps her when she is nausea. Yay!
Anyways, I hope I can sell some makeup, I'm giving them a discount but it will just make up for shipping cost, so we both win :) I was reading some application tips and one stood out to me. Whenever I exercise and have makeup on my face it starts burning and I breakout, so upon reading I discovered I must be allergic to the zinc oxide or just allergic when sweating. I will have to add some finishing silk to my foundation to low the levels of zinc when applying. Maybe that's one reason I keep breaking out, I'm sure there are many others too though.
This may be off topic but oh well.... I got a call from my BIL(sister's h.) yesterday and he had split a cow with a friend and then had it processed in to ground beef, steaks and such...but my sister keeps biting into grissel(sp?) or something and refuses to eat it(sounds like me!) So he wanted to give it to us if we wanted it! Heck ya! I think I can work around the grissel or whatever it is(bone???) for a free pasture fed cow. He said it was very lean meat, don't even need to drain it when cooking. So excited! What a blessing :)
Okay better go practice putting my face on :-/

On Guard!

I was putting Londyn's diaper in the dirty laundry and saw mouse poop! At least that's what I think it is, I did not inspect it to rule out anything else. I just want to forget I ever saw it! I love Fall except when those evil little critters start looking for a warm home for winter.
Phil and the girls better just get their snow suits on now, because if they are thinking about choosing our warm cozy home, I will turn the heat off! mwahahaha!
Okay, not really. It did cross my mind for a split second though! You would think growing up in the country would have conditioned me to seeing mice. Nope.
I wasn't always a scaredy cat of them, but I had this crappy job at a restaurant/ gas station, with an alcoholic for a boss who was more worried about his next beer run instead of keeping the place clean. Mice infestation is an understatement to describe that place and it has haunted me forever!! Thankfully, the place has new owners and it's cleaner, after my boss(manager) ran the old owner out of business by not paying the bills and gas getting cut off. A gas station doesn't thrive well in those conditions. lol
So, you all will know if I do indeed see a mouse, because I will be sitting here in the chaise with my feet up and giving play by play updates. The kids may have to just fend for themselves! rofl! At least, I'm not 9months pregnant this year and stuck in the chaise, last year was a nightmare. It's not easy for a pregnant women to limit her bathroom & kitchen trips because a mouse is taunting you behind the door that you have to walk by in order to get anywhere in the house.
**sigh**
Pray for me! :P
