    1. I started the using the oil cleansing method to wash my face the other night.  I've done it twice so far.  So far so good!  I feel pretty moisturized and a (sorry if TMI...) whitehead I've had for a few months came out last night!!

    I've been thinking about doing this. Did you use EVOO, sunflower or jojoba? Or another one.  Do you mind me asking you what your skin was like before?

    Does this help with acne? I was just going to create a post for face wash recs. I don't have "huge pop-able pimples" but I don't have smooth skin, and it really bothers me that I can't find a solution.

    I used EVOO because I had it in the house.  I may try sunflower if I continue to like this method.

    My skin used to be great.  Around Sept/Oct last year I start breaking out like a teenager.  I think it might be hormonal because my hair feels disguisting too.  I think I'm producing too much oil or something.  I NEVER had this issue before.  My doctor has me on prescription face wash and topical medication which helped some.  I figured I might as well try the OCM because my face can't get much worse, right?!?!

    It's supposed to, yes.  Here's the website I went to which explains it:  www.theoilcleansingmethod.com.

  • 1. have not shared this with anyone but my mom had to have 2 cat scans and biopsy done. Got good news today- its not canerous so we are very thankful for that.

    2. on a sour note its naptime right now and annoyed with my cat who only seems to want to make noise when kenley is napping!

    3. super annoyed with my whole insomnia issue. Ive been this way since I have been pregnant. I need to try to get this under control before going back to work or I am going to be a walking zombie.

    4. Wed will be 10 years since DH & I started dating! Time has flown -does not seem like its been that long at all. 

    5. excited for super bowl sunday! I only watch one football game a year ( pathetic i know lol) but it reminds me of when DH & I first met. Man we were young! lol

  • 1.  I finally got my oil change, yay! 

    2.  DH has been cleaning and doing laundry lately on his week day off (when he's home with DD), I'm so proud of him!

    3.  He also made dinner last night, yum! 

    4.  Just went to Target on lunch and spent less than $100, that doesn't happen very often! 

    5. I bought some yummy cupcakes at Costco and am getting ready to finish the last two, I'm going to miss them...lol.
