I'm Loving that the rain has finally tapered off, and the temperature has been warm and sunny.

Yesterday it reached 90° and boy was it hot and humid!

I'm Loving that I have come to the conclusion that I need a Nook.  I love the feel of an actual book and I'll def miss that, so I'm hoping that I'm making a wise choise.

I'm Loving that my old camera bit the dust.  Now I have the chance to buy a new one.

I'm Loving that my doctor figured out that my weight fluctuations and some of my other health issues  are due to my thyroid!  I had to have a ton of blood work done, and I have a follow up appointment this morning.  We're going to determine if I need medication to get this thing in order.  

I'm Loving how much fun I had with my family on Memorial Day!  I was prepared to snap some beautiful pictures all throughout the day, but soon made the discovery about my camera.

I'm Loving my pastor's wife Tammy.  She and I had the chance to pray together on Sunday and she could totally relate to some of the things I'm going through.  It's always nice to have someone in your life who can say, "I've walked in those same shoes before." 

If God has worked out the same situation for someone else, He can do it for me! 

And this gives me hope.  I need hope in order to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

What are YOU Loving today??

I Heart…

I wanted to post yesterday so that I could wish everyone a Happy Valentine's Day, but I was really under the weather. Needless to say, there wasn't a whole lot going on at my house in the way of love. Well…I can't really say that, Nehemiah and I were extra loveable {he's such a little heart throb}.
I didn't know how I was going to react to the big V-Day. I wasn't sure if the day was going to bring up feelings of loneliness, or feelings of anger that I was yet again spending this day alone. Surprisingly, I didn't experience any of those feelings. I actually felt blessed. Very blessed that my life is extremely filled with love. I have a few friendships that have come and gone, and although it hurt to say goodbye, I've accepted it. Those failed friendships have allowed me to really appreciate those who are actively in my life. So, to my family and friends who are there for me during the good and the bad, I Love You!

Sticking with the theme of love, I decided to share some of the things I heart. Here goes…

1.) Garnier Fructis Gel-Cream Moisturizer   

I absolutely heart this stuff! It leaves my skin feeling refreshed, and it's soothing. Plus, it smells wonderful.

  

2.) FIT makeup by Maybelline

I embarked on a very long journey to find a foundation and powder that didn't look caked on my face, and I've finally found it. I have the foundation, concealer, powder, and blush and it makes my face look natural. I actually stumbled upon these lovelies in a magazine {I think it was Cosmo}. There was an advertisement that had every shade of the FIT foundation, so I was able to try on the different shades to find my perfect FIT {my FIT number is 315}. I heart this stuff so much that I had to buy it for my mom! It was an early V-Day gift, and now she loves it too.

3.) Gilligan & O'Malley Pajamas from Target 

The pants and tees are the most comfortable pj's I have ever worn. They come in all different patterns and colors, and they're really cheap!

4.) Glade's Lavender & Vanilla scent
I have Glade Plug-In's all throughout my house, and I'm neurotic when it comes to making sure the same scent is carried through in each room. I have Glade Sense & Spray's in my bathroom and backroom, and the fragrances don't over power the small spaces.

5.) Bear Naked Fruit and Nut Granola
This is by far the greatest stuff I have ever tasted! Eating a good tasting, good for you breakfast has been a struggle for me, but not anymore. I add the fruit and nut granola to my Activia, and poof, I've created a terrific breakfast.






I recently purchased some new tunes that I want to share, but unfortunately I have to go work on homework, so I'll have to save that for next time.


Stay Sweet!
