End of June Update
July 23, 2019
It is now the end of July but what the heck – I might as well start catching up on my writing. I have several already written posts and it’s time to release them into the wild. :-)
What the hell?? June is almost over already? Geeez! It seems like it just started, but when the storms (think tornadoes and flooding rain) keep on coming, you feel like you’ve missed half the month. That said, this week has been gorgeous so we are soaking up the hot rays of the sun and not minding at all. We’ll see how I feel about that at the end of July. :-P
So, how has this month been? To start with, I had a use what you have kind of month for some things. Part of that is because we really spent out on stuff last month and the other reason is I wanted to get my credit card down to a zero balance again. I’m trying out Stitch Fix (more on that later) and I need to have some room for purchases.
In skincare and makeup, I’ve just been using what I have. However, realizing the skincare I have wasn’t working, I went ahead and bought a new cleanser and moisturizer both by L’oreal. I did not buy the Fresh stuff in my Sephora cart but I think in time that I will. I still need new foundation though so am looking into options there. I want something that’s light and easy to remove and two of the ones I really like and that really work are also really difficult to get off. :-(
We had another appliance emergency – our old water heater gave up the ghost by overheating and spewing water in the laundry room. We now have a new water heater and hope it lasts a little longer than the last one – nothing lasts as long as it used to though.
I’ve given up on planners temporarily and am just using a spiral notebook. I list everything I need to do that day and check it off as it all gets done. The one thing I need is a weekly board to put on the fridge or something though. I’ve got a huge monthly wall calendar so the month is covered, just need the week at a glance covered.
I’m getting back on the vitamin train and bought B vitamins (I’m on stress overload) and a calcium/magnesium one too. Together they are really helping and I’m feeling better. The next thing I need to do is have a full menu plan where I know daily what I’m eating at each meal – I’ve got to get that back on track. At least my Food Mover is ready for me whenever I’m ready.
So, I think that’s it. A post on what I read this month is coming up as well as two posts on the sad state of my wardrobe and how I’m trying to remedy that. Hoping your summer is going well and I’ll be back soon!
