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:

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

October and cozy clothes go together perfectly, he October and cozy clothes go together perfectly, hence the COZYTOBER box from @wantable 🍁. This is their most popular edit and now I know why.

Bonus: My box this month included a free sherpa crossbody bag.🙌🏻

I think this was my favorite styled box so far. 

If you’re ready to get personally styled with a box of 9 items, then comment for the DETAILS and I will send you a link that gets you $25 off your first box.
It’s official! Amazon Prime Days are here and thes It’s official! Amazon Prime Days are here and these are the sweaters that I’m recommending. They’re all soft, comfortable fabrics and on-trend designs that I will wear on repeat. And the jacket isn’t too heavy nor too light. It will be perfect for my walks and other outdoor activities.

Are you partaking in all of the Fall sales too?

I ran into @target to pick up the NEW CeraVe Super Boost Serum, along with the Vitamin C Brightening Cleanser, Vitamin C Brightening Lotion and Skin Renewing Night Cream, and I’m loving how simple this routine is.

As we get older, our skin can need a little extra hydration and attention to dullness and uneven-looking skin tone. For me, the goal isn’t to look younger—I just want healthy, hydrated and radiant skin because it makes me feel most confident and @CeraVe has me covered.

If you’re looking for a simple skincare routine that’s easy to maintain on a daily basis this is one to check out on your next Target run or online.

Have you tried any of these skin brightening products from CeraVe yet?

#ad Today’s monochromatic makeup look is inspired #ad Today’s monochromatic makeup look is inspired by the colors of Fall. I used all @lorealparis makeup to create this quick and easy look that will have you out the door in minutes.

The foundation and blush are the True Match Hyaluron Balm Foundation and Embellisher that multitask by giving my skin hydration and coverage with a lightweight feel.

I’m in love with the burgundy eyeshadow stick and mascara because they make my eye color pop and will be gorgeous with all of my Fall-colored wardrobe pieces.

And I always finish with the 3-Second Setting Mist to keep my makeup in place all day.
