I've been inspired to start a blog by all the other bloggers and youtubers out there. I enjoy reading, watching and learning and want to give something back.

What the ladies want to ask the men

We all have questions but sometimes don't have the right man to ask or don't feel comfortable asking. Well submit your questions to me and I'm going to ask some of the guys. I'll be sure to get an array of opinions from men of all walks of life. 
So Ladies, what do you want to know?!

People Bingo

So while looking for a friendly work appropriate activity I came across 'People Bingo' I sent yes or no questions to my coworkers and then made a bingo sheet and they had to ask each other questions to figure out the answer for each square. The only rules were that you could only ask each person 1 question at a time and don't use your name except for the 1 question that you were the only answer to. For that question I asked each person to share one thing about themselves that not many other people may know. It was a ton of fun and a huge boost to office morale!

Tis the Season

So you can pretty much guarantee that for the rest of 2012 you will see many people campaigning and asking for donations. Times are hard but I do my best to give what I can. I went to the grocery store and there were these young girls about 5 with their moms setting up a bake table. On my way in I saw rice crispy treats so I had already decided I'd be buying one of those!

When I came out all the girls were lined up shouting 'help cure kids cancer' and it just really touched me. Not sure if its because they're kids and I have a soft spot for them or if because my sister was diagnosed with thyroid cancer when she was about 11. They gave me a butterfly flyer with the charities info and I got my rice crispy which they hadn't even put prices on. Whatever donation you wanted to give was gladly accepted. Please check out the website, its a great cause!

Nachos

So Saturday rolls around and the guys are planted watching college football all day long! I wanted some nachos so we got to slicin n dicin!

Here are all the items we used.

We made guacamole and pico de gallo. Rather than ground beef I bought a skirt steak and cut it into tiny chunks.

Here is a pic of the guac before its mixed and then after.

Warmed up the cheese and started dressing our chips. This is the end product...so yummy!

Blue

I know that I can only really count on myself. It usually doesn't bother me but sometimes it really hurts. Feeling like you have no one to turn to. No one to help make life a little easier. Someone who understands your struggles and wants to help you through it. I feel like I only have me. It hurts my heart and my stomach turns to knots. Am I not what I really thought? Have I been fooling myself all this time? Time to get on my hustle and make my life easier! Buy me some nice things and head to some nice destinations. I'm just feeling blue.

Project use it up!

While reorganizing my bathroom I realized how many unused products I have! Four different face lotions, three hair sprays, two face masks and countless Mary Kay eye creams I never managed to sell plus lots of other stuff. All this stuff is a waste of space and money. So I came up with the name Project use it up! I organized my medicine cabinet with one of each essential item so it'd be easily accessible for use. If I have it or a product like it I'm not allowed to buy it.

Check out this basket of product. I have TWO baskets like this and they're both full of product.

These are some of the products I'm trying to use up first.

This is my make up bag and all the dups I tried removing from it. (No the vaseline or the hair lotion lol)

This is insane! I challenge YOU to do the same! Take pics and leave me a link to your blog or vlog so I can check it out. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
I think I just saved a small fortune!

Feeling Down

Have you ever ignored your problems until they're beating down the front door? That is currently how I feel with my financial situation. I've ignored it hoping it would get better and now I'm afraid I've really messed up! If I couldn't pay it at once I just didn't pay it when I should have been paying a little at a time at minimum.

The good news is I've made a few calls and arranged payments just gotta stick with it! I still will have barely any money but at least I have my apartment and its essentials. My part time job hunt continues! I need to get rid of some of this debt and get some money in the bank!
