I finally tackled the cord octopus! After buying 2 power strips at IKEA, I cut another hole in the back of my TV bench and moved all of my electronic stuff all into the same area. And all the cords are behind the bench. My top accomplishment of the week! :) BEFORE: Wireless router, cable [...]

It’s super light, so it doesn’t make your nails sweat; and gives your nails just enough shine, so you feel girly instead of like [...]

I’m crossing all the easy stuff off my list first! #34 is officially done, and doesn’t require much explanation! I stocked up on the 5 for $25 PINK underpants. Although I love all the bright colors, their strategy of slowly shifting to capture the pre-teen market is kind of scary, but rather brilliant. And what’s [...]
