Sunday Social -- Week 24

1. Name 4 jobs you've had in your life.
I have only worked in four places, two of which consisted of the same thing and currently working as a secretary. The other two were front lead cashier at a supermarket and retail at Bath & Body Works (my favorite job ever, seriously.)

2. Name 4 movies you would watch over and over.

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Dumb and Dumber, Drop Dead Fred and Austin Powers: The Spy who Shagged Me.

3. Name 4 places you have lived.

I have never moved from Miami. But I have been in different parts of Miami...(does that count?)

4. Name 4 of your favorite foods.

Pasta Alfredo, Sushi, Ceviche and wings. God, I love wings and beer.

5. Name 4 things you always carry with you.

Chapstick, eyeliner, wallet and of course my phone. I never go out of my house without these things.

6. Name 4 places you have been on vacation.
Bahamas, Washington DC, Disney (hey no matter what, that is still a vacation to me) and different beaches throughout Florida. That part makes me glad that I live here, I have various choices for going to the beach.

Manic Mondays -- Happy Veteran's Day!

I can't believe it's Monday already! This weekend business is far too short and my one day with Hubby is unfair sometimes. But I can say I am one lucky gal to have at least that one day :)

~ I am not exactly the epitome of a patriotic American. But I can acknowledge those that are. Thank you to all those veterans and to all those who have served our country. It's a tough job to be away from all your friends and family for the greater good and seriously, thank you. 'MURICA.

~ I have been reevaluating my blog these days. My posts are all over the place and it's just random blubbering of a million things. Subscription boxes, ranting, motherhood...etc. I know that maybe the world doesn't need another amateur blogger to stuff the internet with useless information. But this is therapeutic. It's hard being a working mom/student. But this helps -- to rant about things.

~ My glam room is up!

I am more than excited to know about the stuff that I am getting! Can't wait to get this bag in my hands!

~ I also got my Darby Smart box last week and I can't wait to start my little DIY project :3 I'm pretty sure that I might get December's mystery DIY box too after I got this email:

how could I say no!?

Try it out for just $9 with this link! Or use "howdydarby" for your coupon code!

That's it for today. What's your manic monday like?

THE BAG:
Apparently A LOT of people have already gotten their hands on their November ipsy bag and I'm so jealous. D:

I'm not too crazy about the snake skin gold thing going on but I would have to see it in person to better describe it. But I cannot wait to get this bad boy in my hands!

Thursday Thoughts

I'm showing some link-up love over at Ramblings of a Suburban Mom today and I have a few things to ramble on about.

- Ok, I am not too crazy about spading/neutering your dogs. It's sad. And letting them have one litter is good enough and it's the responsible thing to do what is needed to keep them from multiplying like rabbits.
But, why would you stuff your house full of dogs and allow all the female ones to get pregnant (multiple times, I might add) and as I said, allowing them to multiply like rabbits? It's not healthy and it's unethical. >.<

- Time has flown! E is already 10 months old and she's changed so much... Arg, where did the time go? [Says every mom.]

Halloween <3

- I have neglected my blog. :( Shame on me. I basically update it with my thoughts on the ipsy bags. Hahaha, oh how I love those little bags. I have one too many to be honest.
...and there's my moment of weakness and I'm back to not caring. hahaha :P

- It's been more than a week and I am still recovering from a sore throat. I'm not at 100% yet but I am hoping I will be soon.

- Autumn is such a beautiful time. I get so sad when I see pictures of the fall leaves, snow... It still feels like summer over here in Florida. :( This is what I get for living in Miami.

- November is here and that means early Christmas shopping! :D I'm not crazy, I like starting now because I like to beat the rush and not spend so much money at once. Spreading it out makes me feel like I still have money left over.
..Yup, not crazy.

- I have also been debating what to do for JD's birthday...and E's since their birthdays are like 17 days apart. -.- Wanted to get an early start since I usually fall behind on these things...Any good ideas? Maybe doing it together?

That's it for now! What are your thoughts? Join the link up!

Sunday Social -- Week 22

1. What is currently on your wish list?
Dance Central 2/3 and the latest Just Dance games. Don't judge! For some reason those games bring me a lot of joy and that's what mommies need...something that brings them a little joy after being with the screaming children...

2. Share a new iPhone, droid, iPad app that you have recently discovered that we all need.
Recently I have discovered shopkicks. An app that gives you rewards for shopping (physically and via web)! After collecting a certain number of "kicks", you can redeem it for a reward (gift cards, etc).

3. What is a new fall tv show that you have added to your dvr?
I am an SVU fanatic and a Grey's drama geek. @.@ I have tried to watch Sleepy Hollow but something is always in the way or happens before I could watch it! D: I can only watch like a few shows...my heart can only take just a few cliffhangers at a time.

4. Share your social media links so we can follow you. (Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, etc) Tell us which is your favorite and why.
The one that I am for sure always on is Instagram @sweetsolitude. I like posting a little bit of everything!

5. What is a tv show, movie, or song that you could watch or listen to over and over and never get tired of?
I am  not a person that gets tired easily of a lot of things. Shoot, I can recite movie lines because I find that it is the one thing I am good at and because more than likely, it is a movie I have seen a bajillion times before. And songs? Yeah my iPod probably has a heart attack when I put a song on repeat.

Happy Sunday readers :)
