Discovery...

I made my first discovery today. I'm allergic to Covergirl Naturalluxe mousse mascara. Lucky me. I bought it on Thursday and I wore it Friday. It felt really light and I didn't realize I had mascara on. But then Friday night, my eyes were all itchy and not feelin so hot and then all yesterday my eyes were obnoxiously itchy. So then this morning, I woke up with almost swollen shut eyelids. Like seriously, puffy to the max. I should have taken a picture of what they looked like when I woke up. I looked like I was on drugs. For real. It was awful. I ran into my sister's room and woke her up and said, "Look at my eyes!!!" and she thought I had pink eye. But rest assured, I do not. After working at a daycare for 3 years, I know what pink eye looks like and what I have my friends is not pink eye. Anywhoo. I missed my church service because I had an ice pack on my eyes trying to make the puffiness go away. But I made it to Sunday School looking like a puffy eyed weirdo. But it's ok. Hopefully my eyes will be better tomorrow. If not, I'm gonna go see a dermatologist. I'm also going to Target and get a refund on that crap cause we all know that mascara is kinda pricey. I want my 7 bucks back. So right now I'm wearing my glasses (which I should wear all the time, but I don't) so that they cover up the puffy eyes. Haha, it's a genius idea, I know. Here's a picture of me with the ice pack on, it's quite amusing...haha

I feel like I look like a superhero of sorts. Even though I looked like a complete weirdo, my eyes were feeling goooodddd! Unfortunately, I can't be wearing that to movie night tonight. Darn. I'll have to endure the pain I guess. I hope ya'll had a lovely weekend! Movie night beckons so I must go. Toodle-oo lovelies!

As of late...

As of late, I'm...

1. Never up this late

2. Always tired

3. My feet are aching and so sore

4. My back hurts

5. Somewhat on the grouchy side

But still incredibly happy. Know why? I got a new job and while it's extremely tiring and busy, I absolutely love it! The people I work with are hilarious and we have such a good time. But today was the best day since I've started working there because my feet didn't hurt once today! Which if you'd been there last week, whew, let me just tell you I was a mess. I could barely walk when I got home. It was awful. But I got some new shoes that really relieve the pain in mah feet so I was feeling good today! 

I went back to Sonshine today to visit my kids and let's just say, I got a little teary-eyed when I walked in the door. All their jaws dropped and they all ran up to me yelling "Emmy Emmy Emmy!" and giving me giant hugs. I haven't been there for 8 weeks and they have changed so much! They are saying complete sentences and carrying conversations, it's amazing. I had a couple of them come up to me and say how much they missed me. My heart totally melted. Even though I love my new job, I still think of my kids every day and miss them terribly! It was nice to go visit though and I think I'll go visit them again soon! But I'm gonna head to bed since I have work in the morning...blahhhh. Only 4 more days till the weekend! Haha, toodle-oo lovelies!

Back to Reality...

Days 4-6

So there's not much to report on days 4 through 6 because I was at my Papa's house and since he lives in the middle of nowhere, well you get the picture...haha. But we did do some "shopping" at Sparta's one store and I bought myself a new Vera Bradley! I love it, its super cute! That's pretty much the extent of the rest of my time at my grandparents, sad but it was really relaxing! So on Tuesday (day 6) we left and started making our way up to Williamsburg, Virginia! We made a little stop along the way at Appomattox and saw all the buildings and stuff there, it was really cool!

Hahaha, they had outhouses all over the place!

I'll post more later, I have to go to bed since we'll be getting up early yet again....but I'll be posting days 7-10 which are from Jamestown, Yorktown, Williamsburg, and Petersburg! Toodle-oo my loves!
