Sheer Cover Duo Concealer

I was very skeptical at first when I received the Sheer Cover Duo Concealer in my Influenster Spring Voxbox. I thought if this is so great, why give it away!

But, I am pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked for me. I have some very noticeable skin discoloration, and It hide it very well. I have always been very self-conscious about the discoloration, but with the Sheer Cover, I didn't have to worry about it because no one could notice it.

I will be purchasing when I am out of the one I have been sent!

Starting My Weight-loss Plan

So lately I have felt sort of disgusted with the way i look lately. I have really let myself go since getting married. I hate that, and I need to do something about it.

So before Josh and I try to start a family, I need to get my health on track. Not to mention that since I have PCOS, i need to put my health first. So I am going to work on me and start back on dieting and changing my lifestyle to better benefit a healthier life.

It isn't just going to be about losing weight, even though that is a big goal of mine. It is also to change the way I eat to stay healthy and keep the weight off. I want children, and I also want to be around to enjoy my children when I have them.

The Plan:

While I am still working out the exact diet I will go by, I do have some things I am going to cut out or cut back on.

So first I am cutting Soda, and I will only be drinking water. Also, I am going to be cutting down on eating out. My husband and I do tend to eat out a lot and that can be very bad. So I am going to cut back on eating out to maybe once a week, and when we do I will make healthier choices, such as salads or low calorie options. I am always going to prepare healthy snacks in zip-lock baggies according to their serving sizes. I am also going to try and eat more fruits and vegetables, especially in their raw form.

I am almost sure I am going to diet based on calories. I would say I will probably stay under 1300-1500 calories a day. So that's the plan. Wish me luck, and keep me in your prayers.

Racing Around Life

We are always rushing. We are hurrying to get here, and do that. We never slow down enough to see what is actually going on around us.

Our lives are literally passing us by.We never really enjoy anything because we are always hurrying along. I know that I need to have some patience and stop being in such a hurry. I need to enjoy my family more, and enjoy my life and the people in it.

Burning Bridges

Sometimes it is best to just suck it up and apologize to someone even if  you aren't in the wrong. Life is just too short to be upset and hold grudges.

I would rather go through life knowing that I did whatever I could to make things better with the people in my life. Even if they don't except your attempts to work things out, at least you know that you have done your part to make things right.

I always think of it in a sense that if God can forgive us for all of our sins and shortcomings, then I can forgive and let things go. I don't want things to be unfinished with people. I want to know that I have attempted to resolve any issues I have. Life is just to short to be angry with people. We will never know when our number is up, but when mine is I want to know that I haven't gotten any burnt bridges.

Discouragement

Have you ever noticed how some people just want to bring you down? I never understand why some do that. I mean really what does it do for them? I'm sure they probably get some sort of sick thrill from it, but that is in itself evil. 

Someone that feasts on others displeasure is just a very disturbed individual in my opinion. I know it can be hard to be happy for others when you are really happy, but It doesn't help to try and bring others done. Like they say misery loves company. 

I am just so over people like that. If I don't have anything nice to say, I'm just not going to say it. 

Progress

There is a Tim McGraw song out right now called "Better than I used to be". I am in love with the song and I feel like I love it so much because its me. Its everything I feel and I'm working on right now. I'm am trying to be a better me all around. With be a better Christian, Wife, sister, daughter, granddaughter, and friend. Also really trying to be proud of who I'm becoming. It says "I'm learning who I used to be, isn't who I have to be" and that is where I am right now. I am by far not perfect, and I have a crazy past but that doesn't have to be part of who I am now. I am making progress on becoming a changed/better me. That song to me just signifies where I'm at in trying to get there.

Crappy Service

Is it just me or does it seem like people are too busy to give you good service anymore?

Stores are really bad about good customer service now. Sales employees are supposed to be there to help you, but that's not the case anymore. If you need help with something, they act like you are rude for asking, or that you are inconveniencing them.  I work retail and that is not how I treat people. I want them to enjoy coming to shop with us, because If it wasn't for the customer's the store wouldn't be there. I know that it isn't hard to give good customer service. Just be friendly, and treat people the way you would want to be treated.

I mean its not just in stores anymore. My post office is awful. I have had two lost packages in the last 3 months, and they never give me my mail on time. It seems like it just sets there. I am so aggravated, and their negligence with my package is making me look bad! I am so mad about the whole situation and they don't even care. I remember when they would do anything to help you, but now they could careless.

I can't imagine why people choose to act this way. If they would just simply do their jobs correctly the first time, they wouldn't have to deal with complaints and everyone would be much happier. It would make their jobs easier really, so why don't they just help themselves out and do things correctly.
