Life

Optimistic Monday

February 4, 2013

My goals for last week:

1. Continue walking (as long as my hip cooperates) and doing pilates.
I took most of the week off from walking and I’m glad I did.  The bursitis in my hip has completely settled down.  Now I’ll be ready to go again.  I only walked on Sunday for a total of 2.75 miles.  Taking it slow…

2.  Work on my blog.
Worked on the blog every single day.

3.  Bake something low in fat and calories.
I made low fat Betty Crocker brownies and only ate 1/2 of one brownie.  The willpower was working overtime!

4.  Lunches with girlfriends.
Does lunch with my daughters count?

5.  Finish off the closet.
I’ve gotten more done but still haven’t finished.  I got a little caught up in looking at pictures and memorabilia that was in boxes up on the shelves.

6.  Maybe list a few items for sale after cleaning out my closet.  I have some nice things that I’m considering selling on ebay or another site.
I haven’t listed anything yet.  I’m deciding the best place to do this.


7.  Film and post 2 YouTube videos.
I actually filmed 4 videos and have uploaded all of them!!  You can view my YouTube channel by clicking on the YouTube link in the upper right corner of this blog.


My goals for this week:

1.  Start my fundraising for the AIM at Melanoma walk that is here in Dallas in May.

Here’s my link:
http://www.aimatmelanoma.org/en/aim-for-action/1158/1159/dallas-2013/6492.html

2.  Figure out how to get more recipients to receive cards through my Give A Smile Today site.

3.  Send out a few packages.

4.  Get in a few walks and some pilates.

5.  Blog networking.  

What are you doing this week?

I’d love to have you!

    I love pilates, but never get to do it. I like your goals for the week. I wanted to ask you if you have ever tried the DIOR bb cream? I hadn’t tried any bb cream until last week and I LOVE IT! It has 50 sunscreen and has really thick coverage so I don’t need face make-up anymore. Just wanted to share in case my queen of make-up hadn’t tried it.:)

      I have tried the Dior BB cream. It was the Dior Snow one, I think. I ended up returning it because the color was too fair for me. I had a sample of another one and it was too yellow for me. I’m so glad one works for your skin tone though! Thanks for stopping by Tiffani! Stacie xo

At 61 years old, I’ve never been able to consisten At 61 years old, I’ve never been able to consistently use a retinol product until now because I couldn’t handle the dry, irritated skin that I experienced when using them. #OlayPartner

@olay has this new Retinol 24 Starter that’s intentionally made for beginners and/or people with sensitive skin like me. I’m now able to get the “gold standard” benefits recommended by dermatologists with this gentler formula to help smooth fine lines and wrinkles, fade dark spots and improve texture.

It’s formulated with Pro-Retinol, Triple Collagen Peptide and Aloe Vera to reveal the smoother, brighter skin that’s been unreachable until now.

And if you’re a long-time user of retinol products, they have several stronger formulas that you can check out too.

New users and those of us with sensitive skin can conveniently purchase this gentler formula at our favorite retailers or online. Give it a try. I think you’ll be as impressed as I am.

Tell me in the comments the number one goal you want to achieve for your skin.

GRWM with clean beauty products — because looking GRWM with clean beauty products — because looking your best at any age isn’t about looking younger. It’s about looking like the best version of you.

At 61, I’m all about makeup that enhances my features, works well with mature skin, and still lets me look like me. I don’t want to hide behind my makeup, and I don’t think any of us need to. With the right products and techniques, makeup can simply bring out what’s already there.

I used all clean beauty makeup products to create a fresh, natural, polished look that feels good without feeling overdone.

If you’re a woman over 50—or 40, 60, or 70—and you’re looking for clean beauty, natural makeup for mature skin, makeup tips for mature skin, anti-aging makeup techniques, or natural-looking makeup that enhances instead of covers, this one is for you. ✨

Beauty doesn’t have an expiration date. Everyone deserves to feel comfortable and confident.💕

Save this GRWM for your next makeup day and tell me: do you prefer a natural makeup look or something a little more glam?

As a 61 year old woman who gets to try so many new As a 61 year old woman who gets to try so many new beauty and skincare products, these are some of my favorites over the last few weeks of the summer that I would repurchase again and only 1 fail.

As a matter of fact, I already repurchased the vitamins and prebiotics and probiotics supplement. I didn’t know Kourtney Kardashian was the owner of that brand. I only had 1 fail this time which was the terrible tasting creatine gummies. I don’t like stevia, but if you do then you may like with them.

Have a great Monday friends! xo
