Confession Time...

Confession Time...

Y'all remember that OPI Black Spotted French Sephora exclusive nail polish that OPI said they would NOT be releasing in the US?

I got one.  😃

And no, I did not pay $50 for it on ebay.  That's just crazy.  o_O

I own 5 crackle polishes and just realized that...

I own 5 crackle polishes and just realized that I've only got photos of one put up - and in the photo, you can't really tell it's a crackle! How goofy. LOL I know what happened. I went back and looked at my nail photos, and it wasn't long after I got my crackles that I also got my stamping goodies. Stamping goodies > crackle.

Anyway, this is my black one over a Maybelline Color Show Limited Edition pinky / champagne something or other. LOL I can look at the name if anyone actually likes it. They had it at Walgreen's. Which, btw, if you are into polish, they seem to get a lot of cool exclusives that other stores don't get. 😉

So, crackle. Love it or hate it? Most people seem to have a strong opinion one way or the other. I like it, especially when you get nice big cracks. 😃

What a long day, but it was fun!

What a long day, but it was fun!  We had to take Teyla to Riverview Animal Clinic, P.C. to get her leg checked out.  Dr. Atlas had to change her wrapping this time and baby girl showed her beard.  She did NOT like that.  BUT, her leg is healing nicely and he said that by the time she's grown it shouldn't even look like it was ever broken.  So that's good.  🙂

After that we went to Chili's.  I'd never been to a Chili's so that was cool.  Teyla had to stay in the car in her box for that one (ooh, and she was pissed when we came back out!), but she spent the rest of the day on my boob going in everywhere we went.  LOL

She went to Spirit Halloween - I'd never heard of that, but holy shit - we are going back.  With monies.  And probably my mom because she'd love that place.  😃  Then we went to Ulta, where I got an Essence polish.  It was cheap and pretty and I didn't have one of those.  And I got to meet all the Zoya's and Ulta's and other fancy polish brands they don't have around here but that I always see blogged about.  LOL  I know that sounds goofy, but I was totally excited even though I was too broke to buy any of them.  Then we went to Sally's where I got a back-up magnet and some moisturize-y stuff.  Between the Essence polish and Sally's I spent a total of $5 on myself today and I am SO happy with what I got.  😃  Then we hit Petco, drove home, went by a gas station, and then Tractor Supply.

So, baby girl had a big day out and seemed to enjoy every minute of it.  Except for the box time and getting her leg re-wrapped.  But I hope the rest of it was fun enough to make up for it.  🙂  She seems to like being out and about and getting to look around.

She was so tired on the ride home.  She snuggled my neck, which is what she does when she's going to sleep.  Just climbs up as close to under my chin as she can get and presses her nose to me.  It must be a comfortable way to sleep, at least for her.  Usually when she does that she's got claws in my skin rather than my shirt.  But I let her do it anyway.  ❤

Teyla on the way to the vet.

Teyla on the way to the vet. Little girl is getting spoiled - she doesn't like riding in her carrying box. LOL She enjoyed basking on the dash, at least for the straight part of the ride. When we had to start making turns, I held her. She was ok with that - just don't put her in that box! She will give you an eye, for realz. 😃

Just got back from my first football game in AGES.

Just got back from my first football game in AGES.  Even though I wasn't in the stands playing it was a ton of fun.  Shadow had fun, too.  Hopefully, this means that he'll want to march next year.  Tonight was just a trial run - the 7th graders got to go and play in the stands.  Good idea.  And they sounded great!  😃

Oh, and Saks kicked ass.  35-6.  Whoever they played.  LOL

Dang, I've got a sore throat.

Dang, I've got a sore throat.  It's been slightly irritated all week, but today it all out hurts.  🙁  And I'm nauseated.  Yay sinuses!

I found out last night (I love how he's known for 2 weeks but JUST told me) that Shadow is playing at the football game tonight.  Not marching - just in the stands to get a feel for what marching band is like.  That should be fun and will probably make me miss my band days.  I know I'm more excited than he is!  I just hope it isn't too cold.  😳

Anyone feel like being helpful or good?

Anyone feel like being helpful or good?  I've just caught wind of a situation where not one, but THREE dogs have been abandoned without food or shelter when the owner moved out.  And they are tied, of course.  🙁  The landlord and one of my former neighbors are feeding them.  I'll have photos tomorrow, but for now they are being described as two pit bulls and a fox-looking dog.  Unfortunately, if a shelter gets the bull dogs, they probably won't last long, and my inn is full.  I sent some dog food and all the meat from my fridge home with my former neighbor so they'll eat good tonight and tomorrow.  But they can't stay there.

So... anyone up for lending a helping hand?  Anyone want to try out fostering?
