 I got a small Ulta haul - I love things that can be delivered to my house. I don't like leaving the hubby alone. He took himself off chemo for a week and feels better. I am not sure the Dr. will be thrilled.

The Ulta lip balm is wonderful. I know the color appears strong but it actually goes on lighter and it is not drying - this color is Berry Baie - I will buy this again. The Neutrogena Collagen Serum is new to me so I am excited to try this - anything to keep the wrinkles away!!

I plan to have a new post soon. Mr. 4 47yrs is feeling some better since some of the chemo treatment has stopped.

So what you have you bought recently.........that I need!!!!!!!!!!

My surgeon is not going to be happy with me - I have taken my caste off as it was irritating to the skin and I want the scar to heal properly. But I will put the caste back on before I go in the office!  I think I am doing fairly well; this will be short since it is still difficult to type.

This is Revlon's Shine 015 - Dazzle Me Pink. It really has a nice pink color that appears darker in the photos. It is soft and has a light shine. Though I am usually a gloss girl this is definitely in the rotation.

I am also back to using Roc Multi Correxion 5in 1 daily moisturizer - I use this on the back of my hands & the scar. It has SPF 30 and is gentle on my sensitive skin. Have you tried it & what did you think?

Do you have any projects that are keeping you busy during quarantine? I have been fiddling around with cross stitch, getting ready for GS's birthday and tidying up shelving.  It is our 2nd week with temps in the 90's.  So far the children will not go back to school for the first 9 weeks and will have to use virtual learning - I plan to keep them up here for several days each week.
Here are a couple of stitching  designs I ordered - the Blackbird booklet has lots of great designs.


 All these projects are in this booklet by Black Bird designs.
This chart is adorable and I plan to make a sampler from it - O Tannenbaum by
Brenda Gervais.

Be well and I am thinking about everyone that endured the hurricane.

I need to give a quick update ~ I have shattered my wrist and since it is my right hand it is difficult to use the computer. I hate sounding so whiny!

Hospital clothes are so attractive!  I will pop in and update as I can. Be well.

I am not a lipstick lover but these from L'Oreal Colour Riche Shine Lipstick
have my attention - this is my collection so far:
                                                 ^  900         904       906        908       926
                               Same picture as above but the sun came out so they appear lighter.
The names are:    Glossy Fawn Varnish Rosewood Burnished Blush Sparkly Rose  Glassy Garnet

                                                                     908     926
They have a little shine and do not dry my lips - they are almost always on sale so it's easy to try some different colors.


I am thinking good thoughts for all of you on the front lines of this virus - just as my son is.  There is someone in Radiology everyday sick and I stay in panic mode.  He has two small children and he worries he will carry the virus home.  I know you are worried for your loved ones and lets pray for the best.
I will say good night as I am at tears.
Next time there will be more information - if you are dealing with this situation, let me know how you are coping-I apparently am not good at this.

Ultra Repair Cream by First Aid Beauty is what I am slathering all over for my dry skin.  I have a place on  my leg with cut skin because I was itching so badly.  I have a prescription but it cannot be used everyday.  I am also using Neutrogena Sesame Oil when I get out of the shower - any other suggestions are appreciated.

  I love everyone of these eye shadow colors.  Tarte - Limited-Edition Buried Treasure Eyeshadow Palette - Rainforest of the Sea Collection



These fragrances are so lovely - Black Tulip is a favorite but I use it sparingly.

I have had the flu for a month and just now feel like sitting at the computer.  I have no appetite and I wish everyone would stop trying to force me to eat.  I have some medicine that increases the appetite but my poor stomach can hardly tolerate anything.
I hope you & yours are well and take all precautions to protect your health.

These are 2 products I try to use every day:
Strivectin gives a smooth surface to the skin which allows any make up to adhere and blend nicely.  Both liquid foundation or powder go on smoothly and give a finished look.

CeraVe is sunscreen with SPF50 - definitely use it on the face, neck and back of the hands.  It is oil-free and contains ceramides & niacinamide - I really need to add one of these to some of the cars.


I found this again!!  I am going to use this finally:

I prefer matte shadows and this gives a nice choice esp if you are taking it on a trip. Too Faced makes good eye products.

I am trying to organize my velour jackets. It is so easy to dress them up or down and they are comfortable to wear all day.  Chronic pain people have to be aware what touches the skin.
 I have to get these colors organized - it's making me crazy!


We are having 'wintry' mix this weekend so hopefully I will get something accomplished.
Do you have any goals you want to get done before spring?

I am not sure what this is going to be but my creative Grands will find a use for it!  Boxes never go to waste at my house.
