My Glam Squad..

Here are my skincare products. I am showing this because unlike most people, I am old fashion. I use pure soap and "cold cream... I don't really have a philosophy behind being old sckool just that they have worked for all of these years...





No to take a look inside the Glam Squad House...(the make up bag)
This is like a never ending bottomless pit...But this exersise helped me clean it out...

This says it all...

"I decided to stop complementing everybody else. I'm done bowing down for others...now its my time "-Nicki Minaj

I think that courage! Courage that I admire and long to have for my own aspirations!
Some day!

Still Trucking Along!



I learned a new craft, Crocheting!!! These hats are to be donated to the hospital. I have made several more since this picture and I am on my way to starting a new project! Whoo-hooo!

The Crafter in Me...






So I stepped into my new found hobby by going beyond what I have taught myself to do and meeting up with a new band of sisters!!!

For the first time I joined the AA County Sit and Stitch group. A band of knitters, crocheters and other crafts; and they ROCK!!!

There was chitting and chatting, there was knitting and crocheting; there were talks of personal lives and professional ones but mostly there was a group of women, from different backgrounds and life experiences all stitching together- it was a lovely sight!

These women exzooded confidence in themselves as crafters and in the less-confident crafter (that would be me!), they were not only warm and inviting but encouraging and willing to teach; they embraced me like I have been there from the beginning and I really enjoyed thier company.

I am going back this weekend!!!
These are my projects.
1. A soon to be scarf! (I hope before the winter comes!)
2. I tried to teach myself to crochet but it didnt go so well, so this is a bookmark (I guess???)
3. My second project that I started. Changing colors was still new to me and I am not sure as to what this will be.
