minus & plus


-
Upstairs neighbor noises, which I'm pretty sure is a playlist of straight up explosions.
+
Convincing myself instead that he's just watching a lot of Doctor Who & Star Wars to help lessen my hostility.


-
The return of 30 degree weather after several days of sunshine & warmth.
+
The return of crockpot dinners & not having to think too hard about outfits because boots, coats & scarves, ya'll.


-
The Oscars are THIS WEEKEND & we've somehow only seen two of the major nominees -__-
+
One of those was American Hustle & holy late 1970's styling, I'm in love.


-
It's nearly the end of February & my two major to-dos (paint furniture, purge closet) remain unchecked.
+
As of today, I am free from the clutches of potentially being called in for  jury duty YAAAASSSSSSS!


-
My attempt to be a real adult woman by cutting/filing/painting my nails for once in my life resulting in not being able to itch an itch or open a yogurt tab or pick up a bobby pin
+
A general sense of femininity because gee, my hands are moisturized & manicured. how novel.


-
Seriously questioning whether my hair has reached the point of okay-you-need-to-chop-it. how long is too long? is it weird that 40 minutes + a hand cramp is how long it takes me to detangle my hair? Life's unanswered questions.
+
A hair appointment tomorrow morning & a stylist I trust with my life.

-
That odd moment when you put the coconut oil back in the pantry after making breakfast... Only to slooowly mosey back to the pantry to take it back out because your face is dry. It's just sort of bizarre, & also makes me question the safety of going outside on a hot summer day?
+
But really, after one week of using coconut oil on my upper arms, they are soft like a baby bum. Try it. Do it.

-
Those blasted pills on my leggings after extensive wear & tear over the winter
+
Mom's ol' use-an-old-razor trick knocking it outta the park. Thanks, mama!

  1. Okay, YOU ARE MY SOULMATE. I laughed out loud at the coconut oil thing because I literally have been doing that all week! I used it last night to take off my makeup/moisturize my legs after shaving and then had to run to the bathroom to grab it out of there so I could use it to make my eggs for breakfast this morning hahaha. I'm going to try it for oil pulling next because it sounds so interesting!

  2. I have two things of coconut oil, one clearly marked KITCHEN and one BATHROOM because taking it back and forth from that room scares my germophobic soul.

    1. I'm realizing that's going to be a totally necessary step. I'm less of a germophobe, but I see how big Jared's eyes get when he watches me walk out of the kitchen with it haha!
