I gotta tell you that nothing makes me feel more accomplished than when I clean my car. Please don’t think that I drive around all the time with a clean car. In fact, it is quite the opposite. With two kids boys and a husband that thinks the floor IS the trash can, the car is an absolute wreck 99.9% of the time. But there is that .1% when I get my act together and pick all that junk up and vacuum up the goldfish crackers, boiled egg shells (not joking with that one) and sand. And let me tell you friends, when my car is clean, I can totally look past the dirty floors, muddy fingerprints in my bathroom and pile of dishes in my kitchen sink and feel like I have got life figured out and completely under control. And when I’m really feeling fancy, I go to the car wash and watch other people get my life under control for me. 😉

Easy Valentine’s Day Manicure

Valentine-Nail-Collage

It’s super fun to get your nails done by a professional. I personally go just for the five minutes they give you a hand massage. But going all the time can get really expensive. Here is a fun new way to decorate your nails for a great price:

1. Paint your nails with a solid colored paint.

For Valentine’s Day, pinks and reds work great. You could also paint them white for a clean work palette. Let them dry completely. (continue reading…)

Hey There, 2AM!

I have insomnia. Never in my life have I had trouble sleeping. With my other pregnancies, I was so exhausted, I would lay down on any random floor and fall asleep. Not this time around. I am asleep, business as usual, every night, no problem. But then 2am rolls around and it is like someone slapped my brain. I lay there WIDE awake for a couple hours until I can get back to sleep. So incredibly frustrating. And the real annoying part is that I never get tired enough during the day to nap, so I’m just not sleeping. If I didn’t know any better, I would think someone was drugging me with speed or something. Really praying I don’t crash today at work.
