What a long day.. It started out kinda early for me.. I had a friend call around 10 to wake me up so I could go fix something I messed up in the mail.. So off to Fed Ex I went and got that handled.. Then I was off to the dealership...saw Scott for a few minutes. Then it was time to go shopping for things we needed for the trip.. That took a while..Then it was back towards the house with breakfast stop..
I came home for a while.. a short while then it was off to get hair done and do a little more shopping. This time CVS and Rite aid.. I needed a few things and I also picked up some sale items too.. ( pictures below )
Hair turned out good.. Its a little lighter than what it was.. but the smell of the process has given me a head ahe most of the day.. Not happy about that..Even now.. hours later.. Still have that dye smell going and and still have a pounding head ache.. I think a shower and sleep will help that.
Then I worked around here for a bit trying to getting things organized for the trip..
This picture is a cleaned up version of what it was.. I still have more to pack but I got a good start at it! I figured I will take you through some of it..
I love these..This are disposable litter box. I think they are perfect for traveling..This box opens up giving a full size tray and its clumping litter that you can scoop ( scoop not included )... However we have a old slotted spoon that we have used for years when we traveled with the cats.. and it works great..We just keep it in a gallon zip lock and its great for smaller boxes..I also pack some small trash bags to scoop it out in..
I love those Colgate tooth paste with the attached travel brushes. I don't like hauling my tooth brush around. I bye new ones usually.. I think these work great! I also cant go on a trip without a tide pen...band aids.. small freebreeze in case Gabby uses the litter box in the car.. Small pack of razors..small deodorant.. I also got a smaller pack of make up remover towelettes... Small hair spray..
also taking some samples just in case we need them. I think samples are so great for traveling..
Also got a new magazine for the ride.. Probably need some more!
Computer bag out but not packed..This bag gets really packed..Its crazy..all the cords, wires, and stuff that goes with the computer and iPad2 and camera that its a heavy bag.. Not to mention the calender and any other kind of paperwork needed.
I am going to be using my new make up bag that I got from my friend a while back..
Its got plenty of room and I think it will hold everything..
Of course this is the kitty cat bag..
( I have had this bag for over 3 years now )
and I use it every time we travel with the cats..
Right now its got wet food and dry food in it. Plus some kitten milk.. I have more to add to to this bag.. I need to pack her brush.. bottles for the kittens ( just in case ).. and more clean pillow cases to change out in her basket. Not to mention a few toys!
Here is what I picked up from the sales.. Not much.. I got Maybelline Dream Smooth Mousse in # 180/nude beige..since it was buy one get one 1/2 off. I got some Maybelline Dream Mousse blush in # 50..cloud wine..When I was paying.. they had a big basket on the counter of the Revlon Double Twist Mascara for 2.99..For 2 tubes.. I have never tried this before that I can remember.. But I figured.. why not..After looking at it its a big spiky wand and it might just work well.. If I like it tomorrow.. I might have to go back and get more at that price! I needed some more concealer and I love the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer and highlighter. Got that at Rite Aid for 40% off.. Also picked up some make up remover wipes..
I was also in the nail shop today because I chipped one of my nails and I decided to buy this OPI Shatter polish. I am excited to see how well it works.. My nails and toe nails are done so I can use it but that didn't stop me from trying it. Today I also bought a pretty Wet n Wild Fast Dry Polish in # 230 c - Saved by the Blue to go under it. I didn't want to buy a bright OPI color to go under neath. I have lots of bright colors and I thought the blue would look cool... So it went on hubby's finger so I could try it out. I was happy he let me! Honestly I didn't let the blue dry long enough and I don't think the crackle worked that well because of that..But it did do it some! Cant wait to really test it out..
Oh.. I also got this Cristophe Extra Strength Hair Serum 3-in-1 to add shine, tames frizz and conditions. I normally also use John Freida but for some reason the red stood out to me so that's what came home with me..
So I didn't get any real new surprises...besides that OPI Crackle Polish. It was really a replacement haul.. I was running low and just needed to get another with most of it.
It wasn't long before Scott got home.. Ohh I forgot to mention Cooper had been away playing all day.. with that black dog that comes and goes.. So once he got here we had to go out and hunt for the dog.. We road around forever and finally we found him right in our neighborhood..with the black dog.. Scott was ready to kill him.. He was a muddy mess and had to get a bath the minute he came into the house.
So.. I figured it would be a great time to go bathing suit hunting.. So that's just what I did... I did find one.. and no.. I am never comfortable in a bathing suit.. I never have been.. But its Florida.. Had to find one! I did go with a tank-tini with really cute ruffly bottoms and I also got the skirt for it too.. And its all black.. But I feel comfortable in it.. and that's what matters..
I picked up some Japanese take out on the way home..
Here is what I had for dinner.
Not a great picture.. but it was really good.. Scott had the chicken and I also had a box of zucchini and onions too..
Scott was busy helping around the house. I think he thinks I didn't do anything all day.. Damn.. I was busy as hell and I didn't stop..It kinda made me mad.. I do everything around here.. and the day I am busy doing TONS of other stuff is the night he is going to complain..OY!!!!
Then a friend called who I needed to see.. So off we went again.. by this time its 1130pm.. We headed out and got back home within 45 minutes.. and here I sit..
Head ache.. tired.. still have a lot to finish up tomorrow by 4 pm.. I still don't know what car we are taking for sure.. I think I talked him into the mini van.. he's suppose to bring it home at lunch so I can work on getting it packed up the way I want.. If I leave it to him..he will just toss everything in there and I will never find anything.. So I would rather do it myself..
I am going to make the coffee.. turn out the lights and go to bed.. Sorry for the lack of post.. It will most likely be the same the past few days..But I will be sure to check in and say hi as much as I can!
Sweet dreams..
