Inspiration: All About The Blog Sharing Today!!!

I feel like I need to be inspired lately and I have read and seen some great posts lately that I would like to share that have inspired me.

I have some new craft inspiration to add to my list of things I want to do....

My friend over at Pink Tulle with Feathers and Sequins, Shannan Massey (who've I've known since high school, gulp, 13 years ago) makes beautiful creations with cards, card stock, scrapbook paper and labels. I think this one is really beautiful. It would look great in my house or as a gift to a friend!!

My sister at All The Petty Stuff is doing some great posts on the book "The Place of Yes" by Bethenny Frankel. I read the one today and it spoke to me. (Her and her hubby - aren't they cuties!!!)

Over at Tatortots and Jello, she is talking about Father's Day gifts, which is right around the corner, yikes!!! I thought this was a great idea for my husband......

Over at Thrify Decor Chick, she is talking about how to go from good to great photos. I totally want to experiment now!!! Some of these pictures she took in her own garden are frame-worthy.

I hope you find something inspiring today!!!

I need more hours in the day! I love finding all kinds of fun projects :) And I agree-that golf present for daddy's looks like FUN!

I totally panicked when I got your comment earlier about 10 days away from due date-I think it's supposed to say 40, but the 4 just looks really weird...although I would be ok if he decided to come tonight! He's healthy and I'm big and hot and tired... :)

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best. So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System. This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst...

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me. "$61,000" she said. I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this! I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...
