Bathroom Organization

As a teenager my mom always complained about how messy my bathroom was.  There was always makeup and hair products all over.  Over the past couple years I have come up with a few ways that work to keep myself more organized when it comes to my bathroom.  All of them were very cheap and inexpensive.

1.  Shelves- I got these shelves for free which was awesome!  You would normally put them in your living room but I decided to put them in my bathroom to put all of my different products on.  It works great to display them all for you to see where they are easily accessible, and not have them cluttering your bathroom sink counter space.  This is probably my favorite organization tip.


2. Make-up brush holder-My make-up brush holder was also free.  I just used a glass jar that someone was giving away and some purple glass beads that my mom didn't want anymore.  I put the two together to make myself and make-up brush holder.  It works great when you have different lengths of make-up brushes.  



3. Mason Jars-A great and easy way to organize your countertops is by using mason jars.  I also got these for free that someone was giving away.  They work great for combs, tooth brushes, q-tips, and cotton balls.

4. Rolling Cart- I got this for my birthday a couple years ago and had never opened it.  When I moved to my new apartment I didn't have very much storage space in my bathroom.  That is when I decided it would be a good idea to use it in my bathroom.  The top drawer is my miscellaneous drawer.  The second is the drawer that I keep all of my nail supplies in.  The third I keep all of my perfume in and the last I keep all of my curling irons, blow dryer, and straightener in.  On the top is where I keep my make-up in my make-up bag.

Become a Partner in Hope

Today is February 4th, which also happens to be World Cancer Day.  In honor of World Cancer Day, the radio station I listen to everyday at work had many cancer survivors, and parents of cancer patients tell their stories.  Every time a parent or a child told their story, I was almost in tears.  In every story they all said "I never thought it would happen to me."  It is so true, no one ever thinks it is going to happen to them.  I couldn't even begin to imagine if I was told that my son has cancer.  I don't want to even think about it.  After hearing all of these stories I decided I wanted to do something to help.  So I went on to stjude.org and became a partner in hope.  I signed up to donate to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital monthly.  It comes straight out of your credit card or bank account.  You can choose the dollar amount to donate per month.  Any amount helps so much.  It is so easy to do and I hope others wi...

That Thing Called "Co-Parenting"

Co-parenting.....oh the joys!   This has been a hot topic on my Facebook newsfeed lately.  I think anyone that has to co-parent doesn't enjoy it.  It can be very difficult and a huge struggle.  Some people are great at it and I envy those people.  Some people wish they could parent alone instead of having to co-parent and I have been right there with you.  Over the past almost five years my co-parenting style has definitely evolved.  Right now it is somewhat non-existent and that is just the way I like it. I have decided that Mason's father can choose how much involvement he wants in Mason's life but I am not going to go out of my way to force it on him.  The door is always open to call Mason whenever he wants and to come to Mason's activities.  Even though that door is open.....he rarely uses it.  I inform him of the things that I am legally required to notify him about and he will text me randomly every once in awhile to see how Maso...

I am the Lucky One

Yesterday I was looking on my Timehop and a blog popped up that I shared a year ago (I didn't write it).  It was titled "Why I get to hate you." https://noonetellsthetruth.wordpress.com/2015/02/14/why-i-get-to-hate-you/  All of the points in the article were spot on.  But the article also made me realize that I am the lucky one. 1) I got to witness all of the firsts. From rolling over to walking, riding a bike, talking, the list goes on and on.  Those firsts brought so much joy to me.  Mason was actually walking for a month before you ever knew. The only reason you found out was because I finally told you.  As a parent you are so proud of your child, I would never want to miss that! 2) When Mason is sad, hurt, or sick who does he call for?  Not you.  He wants me, or even sometimes he wants his Grandma or Aunt Bree. We have been his caretakers his whole life.  We give him comfort, you don't fit in in that category. 3) I am the one who is...
