New Years Goal

One is in full swing and one not so much.

I decided on New Years Day I was going to try to blog every day this year.

Even If it was just a picture I was going to do it.

Well….

You see how well that went!

I do have a good excuse though.

I started out with a headache New Years Eve day and that headache turned into a Migraine that lasted til January 3rd and then turned into a dull headache that I am still dealing with.

I have barometric migraines and we had some system come thru that I guess just grabbed a hold of me and won’t completely let go and quite frankly it stinks.

Brad was on vacation and we could do nothing cause I was in sooo much pain.

But it is getting better and a friend let be borrow her essential oils and that is what I think finally made it dull the headache so I have been using those daily and hopefully it will be completely gone soon. I am also going to the chiropractor tomorrow so hopefully the combo does the trick.

Okay onto the goal that is being accomplished.

Organizing

We started redoing Bub’s room back at the end of November and that is finally done.

Then Brad bought me a closet organizer for Christmas for our guest bedroom which has now kind of turned into Bub’s office since his desk would no longer fit in his room after the big redo.

We got a new desk first off that would match the room better .

(The old desk got swiped up from the curb before morning!)

and then started on the closet.

I have a hate hate with this closet as can be seen in some of my past posts: Here, Here & Here

It is still a work in progess but I got some bins from dollar tree and started organizing Christmas gifts and stuff for next year and getting all Bub’s school supplies organized. It looks soo much better but I still need to tweak it.

Oh and Tilda is having a hard time with this Christmas season being over. The tree is coming down this coming weekend and I think she is going to go into a deep depression.

Happy New Year


I hope this year is full of all the love and blessings that  you hope for!!!

Last night we stayed in.

Brad and Bub played his infinity game while I was snuggled up on the couch. 

Matt even got to stay in to ring in the New Year with us since he hates fireworks.

He was still on high alert and growling every time one went off and even jumped on top of me when midnight came and they were going off all around us. But it was still better then he usually does.

Have a great 1st everyone!!!

Christmas Eve Morning

I woke up at 6 this morning because my husbands alarm went off and I could not go back to sleep. story of my life

So at 8 I decided what better way to spend my time then to make some peanut butter balls
One may have been eaten as my breakfast ;)



Then it was time to address the elephant grey hair in the room!!



I went to my favorite stylist the other day to get my hair cut but had to resist the urge to have her color my hair since I was sent the new Vidal Sassoon Stylist kit to test out for free from bzz agent.

Staring at my grey poking thru as she was styling my hair was almost to much for me! I just wanted them covered up. 

I mean I could pass as Mrs. Claus with these roots :/ 
Not that there is anything wrong with Mrs. Claus. I am sure she is a lovely lady ;)

These bad boys needed to go and today was the day!





I always keep makeup wipes handy and apply some Alba un-petroleum to my hair line so I don't end up with a lovely ring of hair color from any oops I might make!! (that tip was compliments of one of Kandee Johnson's videos)

Mixing up the first step was pretty easy peasy. Just mix it up and apply 3/4 of the mixture to all of your roots, clean yourself up and then wait 20 minutes for the second step.

My only issue was they provided one set of gloves (say what!!!). You have to remove the gloves while you wait the 20 minutes then try to get those little gems back on without getting hair color all over you and not to mention they don't really fit that great the second time around.

can you tell waiting is not my strong suit!

I had spare gloves but I decided since I was testing this out I needed to go with only what was in the box.

The next step you just mix in the serum to the rest of the mixture and apply it to the rest of your hair.


Then wait 10 minutes and rinse it out, wash your hair and apply the colour perserve conditioner.

Style and let the festivities begin!!!!


I think it turned out really pretty and frosty approves ;)

Now off to put some chocolate on those peanut butter balls :)

Have a Very Merry Christmas Eve everyone xoxo
