About Me
I love life. I have a wonderful husband who is the love of my life, we've been married for almost 5 years now. I have three children, and they are pretty much my life... Oh yeah, and I'm really into the environment, and love to be outdoors :D
If you're a fan of Mineral Makeup you should definitely check out this company. The name: Monet Minerals.
This company is great. So great that I decided to become an affiliate. They are in the process of setting up a consultant program, and as soon as that is launched I will do that as well.
I personally have never really been much of a make-up wearer. I have three kids, and who has the time for that when you have three kids to chase around. Not to mention the fact that they don't really care how I look, so there's not much incentive to make the effort.
However, since finding this company I can say I wear make-up everyday. I love my mineral make-up. I have noticed that my skin is becoming much softer since making the switch as well, and it only takes a few minutes to apply. Since mineral make-up is all natural, it has actually improved the quality of my skin. And I am always getting compliments about how natural it looks. People say that they couldn't even tell that I am wearing make-up, and isn't that what we all really want?
The best part is that you can order samples before you decide to buy the full size products. Which gives you a chance to try it out before you decide to use it on a regular basis.
I have small samples that I'm willing to send out, but they are single use samples. The samples that you order from the website will contain much more make-up. However if you are interested in a free sample just send me a message with your name and address and I will get that out to you as soon as possible.
Right now if you order through http://www.naturalmakeup.dealtap.com the special is a free eyeliner. There are two shades for you to choose from. This is the special for June. There is a new special each month. Last month it was free shipping or a free lip-balm.
Shipping is always a flat rate of $3
You might also be interested to know that this is a local company. So by purchasing through http://www.naturalmakeup.dealtap.com you are also supporting the local economy, and helping the environment versus having your mineral make-up sent to you from across the country.
Check it out and let me know what you think. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I will answer any questions to the best of my ability. Thanks.
It's official... I have now opened my own ebay store. Please check it out, and see if there is anything you like.
Unfortunately right now I only have 5 listings on Ebay. This week is our garage sale, and I have to focus my time on that. I just wanted to come in here and give a quick plug to my ebay store...
I will be adding a ton more stuff next week. So stay tuned. I have a ton of inventory, just no time to list it yet. I'm going to try to take the time to post a few things here and there, but am not sure that I will be able to considering the garage sale is in two days.
Garage sale.... Thu-Sat. 9-5 7041 Pima Lane in Chanhassen
I'm going to post a blog specifically for that now though :D
Well, my garage sale is next week. Already. I'm really excited about it, but stressed at the same time because I have tons to do to get ready. It's going to be huge. I have lot's of friends pitching in their stuff. One friend in particular is selling a bunch of brand new Ralph Lauren Sheet/Sham sets. She bought them because she had an Ebay store, but she had to give up the Ebay store because she didn't have time for it anymore, and ended up with all this left over inventory. She is really looking forward to getting rid of some of it.
I will post the address next week. If you want to come. I live in Chanhassen, but there will be tons of baby clothes, and I'm sure some clothes in general. Lot's of women's stuff. Books, books, and more books. Some jewelry.
Now that I've plugged my garage sale. Onto my life... lol...
I'm really excited about this weekend. I am going to see a good friend of mine whom I haven't seen in over a year twice.. Woo Hoo!!!
And this Saturday marks five years of marriage for me and hubby. Wow!!! I can't believe it's already been 5 years. The 5th apparently is the paper anniversary. Who ever thought of that? lol. I mean, paper? Come on... Seriously... But I decided to get creative. Apparently not soon enough though. I had this grand idea that I would take the pic of hubby with Bryant McKinnie from Mothers Day, and have it blown up to an 8X10 and have it autographed and framed for hubby. I called the Vikings organization last week. Unfortunately the person who I needed to speak to was out of the office due to health reasons, and said in his VM greeting that he would be returning calls on Thursday and Friday. I never heard back from him. I called again today, but had to leave another message. I hope he calls early tomorrow so I can figure this out. I wanted to have it done already.
So my wonderful gift might end up not being so wonderful at all. I might end up just having to give him the picture framed, which kind of sucks. But on the other hand, it's not like he knows what I'm trying to do, so he wouldn't know the difference anyway.
We have reservations for Bellanotte, which I'm really excited about. They know it's our anniversary, so I wonder if they will do something special for us. I've never been there before, so I'm really looking forward to it. We are fortunate to have our anniversary on Father's Day weekend because my parents are always in town, so it's easy to find a sitter. I'm going to wear my Star Party dress again. I figure you don't get many opportunities to wear a dress like that, so I'm getting my use out of it... lol.
Time sure goes by fast these days. I guess that's what happens when you have three kids, and always have something to do... lol. Busy, busy, busy... I have about a million things to do over these next upcoming weeks. I am really looking forward to relaxing in July.
Anyway, I hope that you all are enjoying your days. Summer officially begins next week. I am looking forward to many days at the beach. And not having anything that I absolutely have to do. Plus going up north, and having some quality time with hubby. I love the north shore, it's so beautiful up there. I can't wait. Yay for July :D
(PS... I just got a call back from the guy at the MN Vikings, and he said that they normally don't do autographs that way. Usually people will just send in their pic and the players will get to them when they get to them. But he's going to make an exception for our anniversary, and try to get Bryant McKinnie to sign it asap. He can't guarantee it will be done by Saturday, but will get it done asap. I just have to drop the pic off at Winter Park. Which I will do first thing tomorrow. Yay!!!)
sorry about sunday...like i said saturday i tried to walk in to the exhibit and NO GO! But I look forward to seeing you Friday. We had TBALL practice today. We play at Bronx Park - the league named us the Bronx Blues... with Gold Jerseys... ummm??

She is getting SO big and SO smart...serious - anytime you need a sitter-your kids are more than welcome over! :o) Glad ur anniversary went well! LOVE YA GIRLIE! Hope we are still ont for next Sunday after church! Laters!
Wow - girl - I cannot even tell you how awesome your comment made me feel! I truly am touched :o)I am doing it next year and the fact that you would bring them there to the finish line just makes me all ooey gooey with glee! Now I cannot wait to do it again!! :o) I will call ya later tonight. MUAH!
Normally, he doesn't bother me and we stay to ourselves. It's just when he gets "social" and talks my ear off and then gets creepy that I sort of mind. Luckily, I have the baristas on my side! :)
SURE - i will be in chanhassen - fathers day maybe?? love to have ya along. i dunno how many garage sales there will be that day. what do ya think? Maybe the day before? This weekend is the MS 150 so I cannot then. You live there - when is best? :o) -Monica
Thanks for reminding me about the shades. I just sent out a list to the newsletter groups. Let me know if you don't get it.
Yes, we luckily got to see them again! Tricia and Lori ran into their Yoga Guy while I was meeting Colbie C. Then it didn't look like we were going to get up there, but we did! Adam promised he'd come to the MM board. LOL
I didn't see you anywhere! I would have grabbed you if I had.
Me? Booted? Eh? I didn't get booted... I was there well past midnight. I was asking why your status was wondering if you were the only person who didn't have a good time at time? I just know someone who booted, but it wasn't me! LOL
What the Hooplah!!! I must know what happened??? I totally saw you at Taco Bell, I was leaving and in a huge hurry, cause I darted over there to register and make a trip past Myth to meet up with someone... I looked around for you at the show but you must have been up in the front or something...
I can promise that you did better than a certain someone I know who was tossed out about an hour into the show... :G
Hey girl! Sorry you had such a bad night. I saw you and your friend in Taco Bell... at least you looked GREAT!! There were good points and bad point to my night too. But in all when you add up all the good, it out weighed the bad, and i will go for that:) Hopefully there was some highlights that will make you smile! It will be better next time:)
Hey, how come you didn't have a good time at Star Party?? I had really great times and really miserable times too though so you weren't totally alone. I was on the floor for most of the show, we got there early to be up front and center and people up there were beyond rude. Pushing, pulling hair, calling names. Stuff like that really bothers me and I usually can't just let it go and ignore them. I was really excited to meet Pierre from Simple Plan too, but he seemed kinda skeevy, like he was more interested in looking for chicks than talking to fans so that was kind of a bummer meeting someone I've always wanted to meet and kinda be dissapointed in the experience. But Danity Kane was SO nice and that was what made the entire night for me. So I hope that you at least had a few fun moments!
so excited for star party...I will be looking for ya - bring mikes cell and put it on vibrate so u can FEEL the textes of me trying to find you (cause I am guessing you will not be able to HEAR a thing). SOOOO excited. See u then!
Hey girl how the heck are ya? I am ok... busy as all hell. Looking forward to some down time. So - Sunday...you still want to get the kids together? I would love to meet at that park. I still have your MOVIE - I am such a space cadet - I left it in the car that night...ehhhh - sorry :o( Love ya girl.
HEY!
The game is awesome, you totally have to get it... I stayed up really late last night after the boys went to bed and played it. My hubby thinks I am crazy (maybe I am) oh well... crazy=fun!
Have a great night!
:)
Thursday I will have NO time before Star Party...I am sorry! Maybe lets try and do something over the weekend...whats the weather supposed to be like? We should meet at the park or something cause gas to Chanhassen is KILLIN me...I DO love you - but almost $4 a gallon is painful. Maybe meet somewhere in the middle? I am off to the airport now - kickin and screaming - I DO NOT WANT TO GO BACK, not really - but I forgot how much I love this place. Alright sweetie - I will talk to ya when i get back. BYE!! :o)
hey girl! how are ya? i am good.. i am in san diego - what do ya expect?!?! it is gorgeous - been at the beach most of my days. Hangin out with the fam- with just a few friends - enjoying my time. hope ur having a good mothers day. mine is not too bad. anyway - thanks for the comments. i just am getting some down time. I have been uploading what i can - cause my mom SUCKS at sending us pics - I will not get them for EVER if I wait. SO whenever she takes new pics - I upload em here - so I can copy to my computer when I get home - at least they are accessible that way -ya know? Not she is claiming she is gonna make a CD w/ a slideshow - yea i will get that for mothers day NEXT year.... anyway.
Hey, a friend of mine on Midnight Miles met all five guys of Maroon 5 last night! They are doing an acoustic show tonight where she lives. I was surprised that they were all there. They all look great!
Tell me more about the vinegar for Acid Reflux. I have a problem with that too. How much do you use, how often and what kind?
Also, your thoughts about Maroon 5 are valid. I'm told it's just Adam and James but they're playing electric insruments so it's not an acoustic set, really. I told Cartman we need to put that word out to our listeners so they wouldn't think we were being deceptive.
Okay... So I'm not KDWB. But I know for a fact that Maroon 5 is only doing an accoustic set, with two guys. I was rather bummed to hear that... but either way, still will be fun~!
it went ok - i had to pay - which sucks. but i did not have to pay the full amount cause i made the lawyer guy blush HAA! He was all giddy it was funny. His partner was looking at him like WTF, MAN - no breaks. First it was gonna be like $300 - then $280 - then it ended up $150.... so that is better than $300. It should be ZERO - it was for window tint. ARE U KIDDING? I fixed the tint - and do not even have that car anymore for petes sake. WHATEVER - welcome to MN!
I am off to SD - yep we will do tour sometime. See u at star party girl!
sorry about sunday...like i said saturday i tried to walk in to the exhibit and NO GO! But I look forward to seeing you Friday. We had TBALL practice today. We play at Bronx Park - the league named us the Bronx Blues... with Gold Jerseys... ummm??
Monicaanyway - you will have to come to a game soon - like next week??? alright sugar. talk soon!!!
