Ahh.. the sweet smell of... yuck.. what IS that??!

I'm still not entirely sure how this happened, but by some chance I was invited by Bath and Body works to test out four new scents they are thinking about carrying. I was pretty excited when my box arrived holding these 4 vials! I was less excited when I saw the 40 page diary that I had to fill out everyday.

We weren't supposed to smell them before wearing them so I had no clue what each of them was like.

The first day I sniffed bottle #1 and thought it smelled promising. Upon spraying it on myself I suddenly realized that I smelled like a musty old house that someone had died in and never been found.

Yummy.

Bottle #2 I had the stupidity to spray right before a lesson. I then had to apologize to my student, her Mom and sisters for how horrible I smelled. When you literally gag upon smelling yourself it is NOT a good sign.

Disgusting.

I wasn't holding out much hope for Bottle #3 and #4 and thankfully grew enough brains to test them when I wasn't expecting a student in the near future. Thankfully both of them actually smelled really good! Like, REALLY GOOD. I would buy both of them in the store and actually asked the researchers to let me know when they were sold and under what name. I am still wearing both of them on a daily basis. I will be sad when they are empty.

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

New Bedroom Decor!

Every Year my SIL outdoes herself with the gifts she gave us the year before. This year was no exception! She made this amazing picture for me. If you look close all of the pieces of the heart are small pictures of me and my friends! I was amazed! I still can't get over it! I just love it so much! So I decided to hang it above my bed. I don't have a headboard and I have really felt like my room was lacking something to pull it together. I think this picture does it nicely! And yes, I sleep with a stuffed animal. I'm single, don't judge! I also sleep with 5 pillows. I tend to fall out of bed. They are like my bumpers! HA! Seriously though I just love it and it's so neat to look at all the pics of different friends and stages in my life and remember all of the fun memories! Thanks Liz!!

It's me, Charity
