Last Minute Mother's Day Gift Ideas

 Hi ya Gorgeous!
Well, Mother's day is here and it's time to plan a shelter in home celebration. There are some easing of stay at home orders and you may possibly on Sunday be able to go out to a restaurant to celebrate?
Just in case here are a few ideas to help you create a fun memory making event at home.

Is Mom a wine drinker? This stemless glass is great - even if she's not a cocktail sipper, this  glass is a fun way to commemorate the strange days and celebrate at the same time.  Available on Amazon!

Candles are always a great gift!  Your Mom can use these to have the house smell less like "shelter in place" and more like an at home spa! Order on Amazon today to have delivery in time for Mother's day!


Some Moms it seems have everything - so why not a gift card so she can order what she wants? The best thing about this option is that it can be totally digital and if your Mom is far away, you can email a digital gift card and she can receive in email and use at her convenience.

Good luck shopping for Mom and may you have a wonderful celebration!

Dupe Alert! HD Powder - trading Dermablend for e.l.f.!

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy day - whatever day it is!
Actually, I made this on Wednesday and posting on Thursday because on Tuesday I forgot to! If you have been forgetting to take care of your health and maintain your fitness, this simple guide can help get you back on track https://dietlife.com/low-fat-diet/

In the effort of quarantine life and still waiting for the PPP or EIDL or CAUI or the Shopify and SamCart to kick in - I've tightened my belt and made some firm choices to not buy the normal choice in skincare and makeup, but instead, to buy the drugstore dupe.

Normally, I prefer Dermablend though chose the e.l.f.  HD powder instead.  This video takes ya through it! Luckily we have a choice in which product best fits the budget and preference.

Discount Skincare Dupes for Murad Retinol Resurgence skincare

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Happy pandemic day #Icantremember ...it's been so long. So instead of focusing on the ongoing quarantine - let's take a moment and find joy in the moment. We need to direct our minds to the joy that is possible, right now, in the moment. Please don't miss this moment and wait for "something" to happen - take a deep breath, look around, find the joy - and enjoy it.

Today I have a video that shows some skin care choices from Amazon that are in a lower price range than ordering my all-time favorite skincare Murad. Quarantine life has forced some financial choices to be made and I don’t want to give up my retinol regimen but I do need to curb the cost. 



So say hello to Yeouth and Neutrogena! Thank you for watching and sharing!

Wine Wednesday with Wind Storm

Hi ya Gorgeous,
Wine Wednesday today has 2 positive recommendations as well as some positive encouragement and ways to prepare yourself for coming out of the selah, the pause, prepared and ready to seize the season!

Can I get an amen on that positive quote meme I found on the internet?  I'm telling you my friends - like the old adage that says " there are two sides to every coin and every story" - I truly believe that there are two sides to the quarantine life.  You can look at how we have all been off of work and life for over a month now and that's bad - or - you can look at this beautiful selah and pause that we have been given for the Earth and ourselves to re-do, recreate and reformulate how life will be for us going forward. Life is good! Choose life! Wham! and George Michael were right!

Now enjoy these wine selections that I fully endorse and get your notepad ready to jot down some thoughts too!



Thank you for watching! Would you please be so kind as to subscribe and share?
Then, share your $10 bottle recommendation!

Happy Resurrection Sunday - REJOICE!

Hi ya Gorgeous!
Raise a hallelujah! Rejoice! He is risen! The tomb is empty. The plan has worked.
This is the best day of the year - ever.  There are so many days in a year whether on the gregorian calendar or the Hebraic calendar - though this day, is the most significant because it's the day that all of the trust put into the plan of God, even when it didn't make sense to the human natural mind, made sense when Jesus Christ rose from the dead three days after being hung on the cross.

For where ever you are in your faith journey - today is a day to shout and dance! Celebrate and sing! If you are new in your faith, this day marks the beginning of the new covenant journey. If you are seasoned in your faith, then today is a day to receive fresh fire and belief in your walk with the Word.

Amen! Amen and amen.

Yes, enjoy peeps and chocolate bunnies - though know, that the real reason we celebrate is the blood of the lamb that was shed for us. Jesus Christ died on the cross at Calvary for you, me and all of us - and then he rose again on the 3rd day, alive, spotless and our risen Savior.  It's why the gospel is called the good news.  And it's good.

Happy Easter!
Happy Resurrection Sunday!
Happy Passover!

Good Friday!

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Friday - and it's not a normal, just any ol' Friday. It's Good Friday. It's a time where entering shabbat tonight has a deeper meaning.  If in your quarantine life moment, you can pull aside a time to reflect and ponder the truth behind sacrifice and trusting the plan.  God had a plan.  We couldn't see it at the moment or understand it, though by trusting the plan laid out, the best was yet to come. 

He is risen!

 

John 3:16-17

16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

This lil bit came from the Bible study website linked above and it's a lovely read: 
"Good Friday is the Friday preceding Easter Sunday and is the day Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross. We can celebrate on Good Friday because Christ's death was a sacrifice so that we could receive the gift of eternal life. Jesus bore our sins, shame, and burden on the cross. The results changed the course of humanity and what man meant for evil through killing Jesus, God meant for good! "

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy St Patrick's Day to you! I know. I get it. The day feels different and doesn't have quite as much celebration as usual due to corona virus and quarantine life.

You know what? You choose joy. You make your own happiness and then spread it around. Don't give in to panic. Wash your hands. Social distance. It's going to be ok - and this too, shall pass.

I've been testing and trying some new products. I'm still super happy with Murad - it's just I had a chance to try something else. Watch and find out! Please subscribe and share!
