7.12.11 Overwhelmed

I should be excited, but I've never been more overwhelmed. I don't feel like I'm at a good point in my life right now, but then again, I know there are more like me. Last week came and went like a blur. Eric is officially back. And for a few days, I kept this all to myself. I felt like I did something crazy, but it shouldn't be that big of a deal. Eric and I applied for a cottage, and we got approved. We barely even saw the place. When we had submitted our applications, the next day, we got confirmation, the place is going to be ours for a year. And then when we were meeting with the real estate agent, she was just as shocked as we were that we were going to get this place without even being scheduled to see it. As much as I feel the need to mention, to sum it all up, we got our first place. The kitchen is tiny, but the place has character. Not to mention we recently found out from one of our neighbors, he thinks the cottages were built around the 20's because of labels found in the old plumbing that needed to be replaced. We're slowly moving in, and I finally told my friends, and my family. I'm still a little overwhelmed, but I feel I'll get through it.

7.4.11 4th of July Face

I'm beginning to find my summer look that utilizes a whole bunch of dollar bronzers I bought last year from elf makeup. They make the perfect eyeshadows. Last night I was doing swatches of all my cheap-o elf face products. And I found that the 1$ blush and bronzer duo has the be the best one. Not glittery. It's more shimmery than glittery. And then I used another elf 1$ bronzer in Sun-Kissed as a layer over the bronzer from the duo on my lid. Excuse my ridiculous faces, but I feel these best show how well elf makeup can make you look. I'm going to attempt a youtube tutorial on this. I was very excited on this turnout.
