THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS

I am no Oprah but I do have a list of things that I can’t live without.  Now that list is quite different from my Must Have Mommy list; but that’s a blog post for another day 😁.

• Amazon:  Can’t live without it.  My time is valuable and before Walmart, Target and other stores started offering online ordering and shipping within 2 days or pickup at the store there was Amazon always there at my beck and call.  I can shop on bathroom breaks—you know we all do it 😉.  It allows me to get the things I need while dealing with my hectic schedule.  I can even put my most common used items on subscribe and save and not worry about it anymore!!!! I love them!

• Lippy:  I may not wear makeup but I always need my lippy (a.k.a lip gloss).  Traditionally I’m a M.A.C girl but I must say what’s in my purse consistently if Fenty Lip Gloss Bomb.  I love this!  It gives me a shimmer with minimal color when I’m running around doing errands but don’t want full color. 

• Photos in my phone: I’m nostalgic I love looking back at photos and remembering good times.  These days I will admit I look at old photos of my little one or bother my colleagues with his latest shenanigans that I catch on video.  But this is definitely a must have for me! 

• Chloe Sunglasses:  I fell in love with these glasses the moment I saw them on Zulilly but the cost made me not get them initially and then they sold out and I was devastated.  My mom always says that opportunity is a bald headed man you have to catch him when he’s coming at you because when he’s past you there is nothing to grab hold to.  Well lucky for me they surfaced again and I immediately purchased them with no hesitation and I’m glad I did!  I love my Chloe’s—best Push Gift🤰🏽 to myself 🥰​​

• DVR’d Murder She Wrote Episodes or Golden Girls (I’m not too picky):  I’m an old soul.  When I was in medical school my friends used to laugh because I would try the be in bed at 7-8pm.  (Now they do the same but that’s a different story).  I love old reruns and shows of a time gone by but my favorites are Golden Girls, Murder She Wrote, Perry Mason, and Matlock.  However I can only fall asleep on the first two because I’ve seen them so much it’s like white noise to me.

• Sophia my workhorse of a purse:  Sophia is my ride or die chick purse!  She has been through hell and back and still stands strong.  She has been abused, dropped, spilled on, slept on, drooled on, etc.  I bought Sophia to replace my other purse that was destroyed when I had a fire in my apartment back in 2011 (I think it was around then).  

• CND Vinylux: Last but certainly not least, CND Vinylux.  I love to have color on my nails.  I miss my days of acrylic and gel manicures got to expensive.  This product affords me cute color with limited fuss.  For full details check out my Vlog on YouTube “Polished on a Budget”.
