Goals for week of October 30



Its a new week and I'm excited.  I have taken the last two weeks off from my fitness and now I'm ready to get back into it.

1.  So fitness goal is 25 miles of cardio.... do stipulations. Walk, jog, run, hike or bike!  Preferably spread out during the week instead of 2 days of cycling.

2.  Reading goal will be finish the book I didn't complete last week!


3.  Snack for the kids for the week.  Even though we made cookies last night.


They will appreciate something to nibble on in the afternoon. I'm thinking either Jell-O, granola bars or energy bites.

4.  Start on November goals. Organization is my focus for the rest of the month.

5.  Get ahead on blog posts.

  How busy is your week going to be?  Do you already know what needs to be done for the month of November?

It's OK (by me)



  I'm going to play along with airingmylaundry today as I tell you what items/events/activities I missed but didn't lose sleep over.

  You can see her current post here.

  It's OK that I stopped everything for 2 hours to watch the new Grey's Anatomy last Thursday.  I swear sometimes it's so long between a series finale and a new season!

  It's OK that I grabbed my free cup of coffee from 7-eleven on Friday for National Coffee day and a chicken biscuit from Chick Fil A for my breakfast.  I like an app that's rewards with free food!

  It's OK that I also ate at Red Robin twice this week today because of their member privileges.


  It's OK that between 2 kids and myself we finished off a 1 lb bag of Twizzlers together. I say it was a bonding moment.


  Lastly its OK that my new goal for the month is 31 days of fitness.  I like the gym, outside cardio gives me a nice dose of fresh air and I'll be making myself check out some new to me gym classes.


  Today was yoga but, I am already up to 10 miles of foot power in 3 days.

  It's a new month so what are you starting the month out OK with?

October Ipsy Bag (review)


  You know where social media fails?  In the element of surprise.  If your order a monthly subscription you are guaranteed to see it posted on someone elses page before you get yours.  #disappointment I never look on purpose to the spoiler alerts for the contents or the bag!  Luckily this bag when I saw it for the first time was so darn cute that I let the accidentally view of it slide.


Lets take a closer examination of the contents!

The bag is a light color pink with witches, candy corn, vampire teeth, and other Halloween theme pictures.  The bags are my favorite part of the Ipsy subscription and this bag is my favorite!


Look at the keep ghost charm on the zipper.  He is a little smaller then my thumb.  He is all black with heart shape eyes and is a great way to open the bag!


Shade Y445 was my shade.  This ultra HD foundation was by Make Up For Ever does closely resemble my natural skin tone.  I love how Ipsy nails the perfect color without even seeing me in person!  This sample is left my face feeling light with he makeup on.  The bottle had a pump top!  


My sample of Dirty Girl by Pur was a 0.5 FL oz tube.  This facial mud mask is detoxifying  with pascalite clay.    Apply this to your face and let it sit for a period of time and wash it off.  It does dry on your face like any other mud mask.  Rinse off and feel the results of a cleaner face!


Vintage eyeshadow by Jessica Liebeskind in the shade of vanilla/espresso.


Fierce Flicks by Ciaté eyeliner number 266 shade black.  This liquid felt tip eyeliner will give you the precision you want.


  Lastly is my full size lipstick.  Lets start with the box from Teeez Cosmetics and then the tube itself.  Hello beautiful!  The images are so pretty and pop with character.  The tube is a brilliant gold and clear with more images! My lipstick shade Romantic Red is perfect for the fall!

  That's my Ipsy bag for October.  2 more bags for the year and I look forward to what they have in them (and the bags too)!
