      I’m sitting here watching the news, preparing myself and my family as much as I can for the storm that is taking place and nearing my area. It brings back memories of the time I was stuck at the library while my husband and kids were huddled up in our downstairs bathroom with comforters, and flashlights, and books to keep them company. It’s close to midnight and it seems like things are calming down, for my area at least. That puts me at easy a little, just a little, we’re still not in total clear. But my thoughts can’t help but to wander on the many people who have suffered great lose because of this storm. Do you ever stop, at times like these, just to give thanks for your life and not being another number added to the tragedies? I do. And it makes all the shit that I’m dealing with in my life seem so small and much more manageable. #givingthanks

Ladies, have you ever had to deal with unsightly hair growth growing in places you’d rather not say? I have, and for years have used painful methods like waxing or threading to temporarily get rid of it. The dread! Waxing was painful and would last only for about two weeks. Threading would have me in tears but I chose to do that more often because it lasted three to three and a half weeks. All this prodding, plucking, pinching and pain just to remove hair drove me crazy! It pays to be beautiful, right? Wrong! It doesn’t have to. I just knew there had to be a better way and guess what, I found it! Laser hair removal treatments have been a life savior and not to mention a financial savior as well. The removal process is very easy and fast and not painful at all. I don’t have to go as often so my pockets and Hubby like that.
