If you're a bird, I'm a bird

I saw these shirts on a Facebook ad and I liked the graphics on the back of the shirt so I ordered two- one for my boyfriend and one for me. I’ve already worn mine several times and the shirt material is cold and soft. I bought the size L for me and 2X for him. It also came with two stickers and two bracelets. I plan to order more!  Boyfriend’s t-shirt My comfy shirt

Today would be me and Joseph’s 11th anniversary. However, after a 1-year separation, as required in S.C., we divorced February 6, 2020. I left the marriage and refused to reconcile so we agreed on a divorce. We had a short 5-minute hearing at the family courthouse with a witness to verify that we haven’t lived under the same roof for a year and it was done.  We have a custody agreement that we wrote ourselves and mutually agree upon. No child support, no alimony. We’ve had 50/50 custody of the children throughout the whole process. We adjust days and times and we need and are flexible with the schedule. Joseph and I have a civil and amicable relationship. We took my name off the mortgage and he bought me out of my portion so my debt could be freed up for something else one day. So that was our last ”tie” connecting us besides the children. We answer the kids questions as honestly as we can, address behaviors and fears, and have adjusted the family dynamics. This is new to all of u

Day #3: What are your top 3 pet peeves? https://lifeentirely.wordpress.com/ 1. The one that comes to mind first is when you are corresponding with someone and they neglect to answer your questions. Like they do not know how to sequence a thorough response by replying to your inquiries. 2. I know we all know someone like this...A person that talks about their ailments all the time- this hurts or this disease or this problem. They only talk about themselves and never ask questions about you in return. I think that is also classified as "narcissistic".  3. Excessive noises and movements- I may have self-diagnosed myself as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) recently. I've noticed that multiple sounds and actions at the same time are stressing me out. It causes stress for me and I realize that is my problem, not anyone else's. Not even quit sure if that could be classified as a pet peeve, but it bugs me.  Pet peeves are individualized and specific to a person. What

Day #2: Write something that someone told you about yourself that you never forgot. https://lifeentirely.wordpress.com I can think of two statements that were said to me, about me. One positive, one negative, that come to mind immediately when I ponder that question.  I had my wool dread extensions in my hair. I do admit that I can pull them off easily. They are good for me and my confidence. I had been neighbors with an African American woman for many years. Her mom, only 10 years older than me, would visit occasionally. She once had natural dreads. We’d greet across the yard when she was in town. One visit, she told me I “look as hot as hell”. The compliment lit me up, especially coming from an older black woman. And I believed her. 😍 The second comment made to me about myself was my father. This was 2004. I was making $18,000 teaching 4th grade at a private school. It felt like a dead end job and no avenue for advancement. I worked at a surf shop over the summer, chose n

One of my favorite things are these eye brow blades. I first saw them when I was watching tutorials on installing a wig. The model used them for edges. I’ve seen them on the counter at the register of the beauty supply store. I usually grab a couple because they do get dull and I use them regularly. A 3-pack I bought from SHEIN  This particular 3-pack I bought from SHEIN, a lovely website I found in China, which is where the beauty supply shop owners get them anyways. I use the blades for removing peach fuzz from my face. I first take tweezers for the coarse, thicker hairs because I want those ripped out at the root so they take longer to grow back. Then I use these blades with a layer of coconut oil, and drag the blade downward all over my face. It removes dead skin and fine hairs, leaving your face smooth and hairless. Foundation can then be applied closer to the skin instead of having a barrier your foundation sits on top of. I’ve been shaving my face since a freshman in colle
