@rnmom wrote:Got rid of a few more items by donating them to my church bazaar yesterday including a wooden rocking chair and a large wooden DVD storage cabinet plus some smaller odds and ends. We only brought two items home, a clock radio and a very large old radio/cassette player, the large "boom box" type that we used to have back in the 80's. Both hubby and kids wanted it, even though we absolutely didn't need it. All in all though I'm pretty happy because we usually bring more than that back home so we at least ended up ahead this year
Actually as I was skimmimg briefly thru the house I wasn't really finding a whole lot that I wanted to get rid of. I've done so much purging over the years that we're really getting down to where there's not a ton left to go. I'm sure I will stumble on items here and there that I will donate over time, but it's nothing like before when I was donating bag upon bag of items. I'm pretty pleased
Great job. That has got to feel good. I am having a hard time getting started again. I am doing a little bit here and there but nothing of note. I keep organizing and tossing as I go but nothing that gives me the great feeling. LOL.

Today, I organized my mu again and put it back into my sterilite 3 drawer containers and back into my linen closet. My bureau was looking too messy. I am now going to create mu baskets and use them weekly or longer depending how I feel. However, I will only use one powder foundation at a time so I can begin to whittle my collection down. I see the rings of the pan on one of them so that will go into the basket until it is done.
The urge to buy an eyeshadow palette seems to be strong lately so I took the time to open all of my palettes and they all look barely touched. And there really isnt a color I cannot recreate even if it isnt exact. I mean, besides us no one cares. LOL. But, some of those new palettes are soooooooooo pretty. I must resist. And I have powder coming out of my ears and I am not even oily.
One thing that I am shaking my head over is serums. I am currently making my way through 4. 3 mixed on my face and the other one on my body. I am ready to turn them all into body serums just to use them except for the copper p which I will try and use up on my face. I dont see the point of serums because I dont notice any benefits from them. So, besides using them just because I have them, I dont see their value.
I was browsing through Sephora and loading up my cart. No mu, all skincare and hair care. I go to peek at what I put in my cart and it was around 289 bucks. I almost flipped. Um, I dont think so. So, I went through it and deleted most of it. It is amazing how it adds up so quickly. Hey, that is my pair of pumps.
Plus, I am going to see if the products I kept in my cart can be found elsewhere. It irks me that there is such a cast system in a mu store and I will get 5% less than others just because. At least they offered 15% to beauty insiders this year, which got me looking until I came to my senses. If the products I want are offered elsewhere for more of a discount, I will shop elsewhere, or even if it is the same percentage off. I need a good moisturizer since I dont have one that will do me justice in the winter so I am in search for that. i just have to be careful of loading up my carts. ....or maybe I should just go to the store and pick one out.
It was fun filling up my cart for a minute, but no way would I want to work through all those products and ruin the good progress I have made this year.

I just don't know how some of you ladies can post here using your phones. I tried that today and I don't know where the post ended up.
Wanna hear -- er, read -- something funny? I was trying to post a message from the ER.
Yup -- I was walking the dog and the laces on those hiking boots I like -- liked -- so much got caught on the hook of the other boot.
Middle of the intersection, flat on my face. Broke my front tooth, my right hand and the bag of dog poop I was toting, so I didn't realize until I got into the truck to get to the ER that I was wearing dog poop.
I do have those nice full pouty lips now -- without pricey cosmetic surgery! Looks great if you can ignore the cuts, abrasions and road grime. Actually my whole face is swollen. Glasses are a tad messed up, too.
My dentist would have seen me today but I got trapped in the ER at discharge. Too late now!
Call me Snaggletooth. Can't write but I can type.
How am I going to work like this I wonder...

Just catching up on reading this thread @just bee and this post popped up. YIKES!!! You must have been in some pain if you didn't realize you were wearing dog poop 🙊. Ugh, I really hope you feel better as soon as possible. 💐

Thanks! Pretty scraped up, that's for sure. I think it could have been much worse. Our ER is usually packed -- I walked in during a slow spell. Timing is everything.
I look like H-LL! Pain will kick in later...
At least I finally got out of those pants. The fumes were getting to me.
When I got home I turned on the news. Just when you think your life stinks you discover others have it so much worse.

I work in an ER -- the nurses aren't supposed to look worse than the patients! I'll call the PM supervisor and run this scenario by her. Might send a photo...
So much for making progress on that project that's due this week.
And I'm retiring those boots! ![]()

And I was going to post how much I was liking the new Lumene products! Won't be using them now...
Have some lovely bacitracin, though...

Well, time to sign off. Hand's pretty swollen now. I asked for a wrist gauntlet instead of a cast. No way did I want to be in a cast for six weeks.
Why do I keep smelling dog sh_t?
Must investigate.
