Let's just preface this that when you have an amazing birthday month you just want to keep the good times going.
An ER trip really disrupts that flow.
Maks and I were getting ready to finally start trying again this month. I'm drinking my green tea, limiting my overall caffeine intake, trying very hard to not eat so much junk, working out even more than usual...and I still ended up with a UTI.

I know I'm late in the game posting about this and honestly, I was wondering if I should. Don't get me wrong - I'm not 'over' anything, rather I want to make a post that will consolidate everything into one.

And for a more close-up look:

Enjoy!
I love social media (eh, for the most part). And I find myself less on Facebook and more on Twitter nowadays. I like my news fast and instant. Some of the trending topics are funny and some are mundane.

Today's natural hair product review comes from Tangles Out Today. Originally I purchased this for Bear's hair but as I applied it, I realized it was quite heavy for his Type 3 hair. I used it on my Type 4 hair and well, it was PERFECT! Let's get started with the review:
Consistency:
It’s a spray. Nice and light. There are several oils in this spray, so while it is light,
As you can tell by my latest blog posts, I love wearing makeup. I love experimenting with my look and coming up with all sorts of cool things. I never wore a lot of makeup in the past so a part of me does feel I'm making up for lost time but you're never too old to explore, right?
The side effect of wearing makeup is the dirty deed of
