UPDATE: New Beginnings are successful!

Hi Everyone,

So I know it has been a LONG time... I have been busy making BIG moves. For those who don't know, I moved from the East coast BACK to the West coast. I am so excited, I live in Washington State now and I am really trying to get used to all of this rain! I am so glad that I don't get perms because it would NOT last! ANYWAY, So I got a new job that is proving to be quite a dream job! I literally love it! I get to work with people, kids, fund raise, and make my own schedule. I LOVE IT! Literally! :)

So updates about blogging stuff:

Hair: I plan on making a YouTube video for this but in the mean time- I did cut my hair and I honestly haven't been as dedicated as I probably should have been BUT I am getting back on it as I begin to settle down and form a routine.

Make Up: I have SO many new products, I will just have to do one big video for all of them. Some favs that come to mind right now are:

Urban Decay Eyeliner in Perversion
Benefit Hello Flawless!!!! I LOVE this foundation!!!!! LOVE IT!
Sephora eyebrow kit

I can't think of anything else at this time, but more to come promise!

Exercise: So I didn't mention WHERE I work but it is at a gym so guess who gets their work out on almost 5 days a week! ME!!!! I am so proud of myself- I took my measurements before I started working out but haven't done it since. (about a month) I am too scared of getting comfy! I am the type of person that looses 5 pounds and gets comfy and doesn't want to work out then gains 10 pounds LOL.... So I am all about changing my lifestyle right now.

Did I miss anything?! I hope not, well it is great to be back and I will see you soon! :)

XOXO


OH! SN: I am looking for a new camera for recording my YouTube videos... any suggestions?

Okay New Month Resolution :)

I have been gone and I am coming back with a vengeance. So I have done BIG things in the month of Jan 2011. I am very proud of myself. I am starting to better myself in more ways than one!

I have started my own business building and managing websites! :) (More info to come) I have started to work out again. I saw a picture of myself and I just wanted to break down and cry... I look terrible. SO I am boosting my self esteem all he way around... I know this is a plain post but it is quick and brief....


PS-- I am upgrading my fashion and embracing the fact that I have to wear PLUS SIZE clothes... ahhh I said it outloud! :)

Either way more to come... love you guys!

Frugalista Shopping Report: Grocery Shopping 101

First of all GOOD Morning... anybody who knows me... knows I am a FEEN for COUPONS and a good deal! :) So yesterday was my first time going full blown grocery shopping... I saved about 75 bucks!!!! I bought 53!!! items and ONLY spent $100 if that isn't amazing I don't know what is!

If you want to shop here and save some money the website is here: http://aldi.us/index_ENU_HTML.htm but you can't buy online...

First time shoppers should click here: http://aldi.us/us/html/company/shopping_smarter_3180_ENU_HTML.htm. This link provides an excellent way to learn about the Aldi experience and what you need to bring with you and what the stores provides. (i.e. quarter, your own bags, pick up boxes, etc)

I hope you enjoy Aldi's as much as I did.... tell me about your experience! :)

First Costume of the Day

Random guy walking down the street.... smh.. what is he? I wish I asked! :)

Stay-cation

So I think I want to arrange a stay-cation. I do not have a lot of money but it would be nice to "get away" from it all for at least a day or two....

The thing is where can I go in the DMV that will not be too expense and keep in mind I have a 3 month old in tow also! :)

Give me some ideas! :)

Happy Monday

I am back! I am so hungry... something about Monday's can be sooo depressing BUT today I am going to make it a great day! It is the start of a new week and Friday is payday and time to get dressed up for Halloween....

Event Planning

I am currently working at a conference. It is a much smaller scale this year as opposed to last year. This year there are about 700 participants versus last year at 2500 people. Anyway, it is really fun BUT I can't do my work out...

Anyway, I love planning events and meetings (email me if you would like an event planned) BUT I also have a newborn, and I wonder how possible it is to be in my career field with such a young child! Anyway, if it is local I have no problems BUT when it is out of town it presents a challenge. I need to travel my Nanny and find something to do with my dog... etc. etc.

with that being said, I am looking for a new and exciting career! I am an EXTRA organized person (slightly OCD), I learn very quickly, I have a BS in Business Management and I have worked with the federal goverment (planning their meetings) for almost 3 years now.

Anyway, with that kind of experience, what kind of job can I get? I am so worried about switching jobs that I will have a lapse in a pyacheck.. .etc.... HELP... I would love some advice.

thanks in advance!

Halloween Costume

So I am looking for a fantabulous Halloween Costume...

2010 Ideas: Vampire, bumble bee, Wilma (flintstones),

2009: Queen of Hearts
2008: Masquerade Ball (simple black dress with a mask) and Referee? I don't remember
2007: Maybe I was a ref this year?

Anyway, Help me out... what do you think?

What is Blogging?

So I had an interesting conversation yesterday. Person X and I were talking about what is the point of Social Media, such as FB, Twitter, BLOGGING, etc. I simply told him no, I do not think EVERYONE cares about what I have to say BUT someone will read my story and will think I have potential to do something for them. Social Media can lead to jobs, meeting new people, finding things to do in the city, etc....

What do you think? I am just someone that wants to be heard. I am an adventurous person, why not try something new. I will not lie, I am new to blogging and I am really interested in this! So I thought I would drop a quick line and say Blogging, FB, and Twitter are greats way to connect to people! :)
