Optimistic Monday

June 3, 2013

Hi Everyone!
I hope you all had a great week and a fabulous weekend!  I’ve recently tried to get back to my Optimistic Monday posts.  As you will see below, goals are not something I’ve been focusing on lately…  
Goals for last week:

1.  Post 2 YouTube videos.
Not even a single video from me!  I have good intentions, but I haven’t had myself together enough to film.  Every time I thought I was going to film I got sidetracked.  I don’t wear makeup half the days in a week and you know I’m not filming while makeup less.  So I just keep pushing videos to the back burner.  They will happen eventually!

2.  3-4 blog posts.
Yes, I got several blog posts up this past week.

3.  Walk at least 12 miles.
I did get some walking in this week but didn’t quite meet my goal.

4.  Attend at least 1 pilates class.
Oops, I didn’t make it to a class.  I really have no excuses.

5.  Start getting things together for my vacation.
We had an unexpected/unplanned trip come up when my son won a recent golf tournament.  The whole family decided to tag along to the UK.  Now I’m just waiting on my renewed passport to arrive…  I haven’t packed at all but have shopped for just a few cold weather items.

6.  Bake something healthy.
I didn’t bake and I barely cooked at all.  It’s just so hard when my husband is traveling all the time and my kids are going in a million different directions.

Goals for this week:
1.  Walk 3 times
2.  Weights workout at home for arms 3x
3. 2 YouTube videos
4.  Pack by Friday
5.  Finish up some thank you cards

I’m going to take it easy this week with my goals since I know things will come up while getting ready for our trip.  I plan to meet up with some YouTube friends while on vacation, so I am SO excited about that.  And of course, going on vacation with my family will be wonderful.  We’re all starting to get pretty excited about it now.  I’ve been doing just a little bit of research on products that I need to buy at the shops there that we don’t have here in the US.  Funny how us makeup obsessed women have that as one of our vacation priorities.

Do you set weekly goals for yourself?  Tell me in the comments below.
Have a great week!

I’m demonstrating two new-to-me beauty products th I’m demonstrating two new-to-me beauty products that easily captured my heart. The first is a cheek stain (be careful - a little goes a long way) that can also be used as a lip stain. I adore a multi tasker!

The second is a super moisturizing lip gloss treatment. It has ceramides, shea butter and avocado oil for smoother lips. Wear it sheer or layer it on for more color payoff.

Both of these were sent to me as gifts from the brands in PR packages. Thank you!

I recently got my hands on a brand new product and I recently got my hands on a brand new product and I’m so excited about it that I could explode! I’m literally blown away by the science that went into this one. My only hint is that it’s “beauty from the inside” with a combination of ingredients that address the signs of aging from within. We’re calling it a Skin Revolution because it’s a total game changer and there’s nothing like it out there!

Let me know if you want VIP access to this product before it’s available to the public.😎

And if you want to get it NOW and be part of this incredible brand called LimeLife to earn extra income and join a group of supportive women, I can share those details with you too!🤩

This lip butter balm is exactly what I’ve needed f This lip butter balm is exactly what I’ve needed for a very long time so I can wear all of my favorite lipsticks on smooth, hydrated lips.💋

This next-level balm helps to hydrate, smooth, and nourish lips like never before with a rich infusion of cocoa butter and plant-powered conditioners. It’s an ultra-soft formula that melts on your lips like butter, delivering a natural-looking sheen that leaves lips supple and subtly luminous.

You can see that they give a hint of color with a whole lot of shine and nourishment.

I like to say that these have a secret sauce to really mend, and soften lips. You need to read more about the ingredients on my website - you’ll be blown away!
