GPOYW

We're supposed to get snow tonight (*tears, many MANY tears*), so I figured I'd have one more Slurpee before it's really too cold to drink them and people start looking at me funny.

Mess to Hot Mess


So I was just cleaning up my bathroom and I realized something. I use a lot of shit to put myself together each day. I mean a lot. And since I have a lot of free time on my hands I counted it. I use 27 different products on a daily basis from when I step in the shower to when I wash my face at night. 27! Does that seem a bit excessive to anyone else? It does to me, but then I got to thinking, if I tried to cut back on my product usage where could I start. Umm.. I can't get rid of any of it because it's all basic stuff I need! For example: when I shower I use shampoo/conditioner, soap, razor and face wash.  When I do my makeup I wear/use/need eyebrow pencil, eyeliner, mascara, base, blush, and chapstick. That's it. Nothing excessive there. Hair: detangaler spray, heat protector spray, shiney shit, hairspray. Night routine: face wash, eye makeup remover, toner, acne lotion. Misc stuff: lotion, chapstick, contact solution, deodorant...  See. I need all of those things. Well. I guess I could cut out the shiney hair shit. But then I asked myself if I could only keep and use one item from my big tote of hot mess supplies (pictured above) what would it be? Hmmm.. I'd go with my mascara. What would product would you chose to save?

This is me. Forgetting about GPOYW. But as you can see I did not forget to decorate for Christmas on Nov 1st as promised. The tree isn't quiet finished, but everything else is up! Woo!

Winner winner chicken dinner...

Ok so I know I said I would post the winner of the "Follow me" challenge first thing this morning, but this day didn't go as planned. This is literally the first time I have sat down since 4AM. Ugh. Unless you count the hour I spent crying at the chiropractor, and I do mean actual tears. My back is so jacked up and then he asked me how my life was going and that combine with the pain, I just fell apart. ANYWAY.

 The winner of the hand bound book and beanie is (insert drum roll here).... Tiffany!

Congratulations girl! Email me your address and I'll mail out the book and beanie! Also, if I don't hear from Tiffany by Monday (2nd) at 9AM, I will (or Random.org will) generate another winner.
