Random Rambles Thursday has a new home!!

As a part of me being burnt of blogging, I have decided to give up one of my meme's...This wasn't an easy decision, because RRT is a favorite of mine and I started it, because I usually ramble on Thursday's, but I had to give it up...It was given to my Co-Host, Monique from Little wonders, Big Dreams!!!

I'm so glad that she agreed to take it over and I don't have to let it die!!

So next week, I will hopefully be joining in, but if you need help finding your way over, don't worry! I will have the link to her blog up for about a month, so you all can continue to join on in!

I just want to thank you all for joining in! I really hope you all continue to join in on my other meme/blog hops...And continue to join in on RRT over at it's new home!!

Thank you again, Monique!!

What about me annoys Scott!?!?!

I stoled this idea from Jenn...

I sent Scott a text the other day that said..."Will you do me a favor and write some things that annoy u about me so I can post it on my blog?"

OK... 1...I'm thinking about blog posts while I'm working :)

2...That's such a random question to ask your husband! :)

So he writes me back and says... "But you don't annoy me...but I will try to think of something.."

OK... 1...You just don't want to piss me off :)

2... You're full of shit! :) haha

So he sent me this email...

"(Keep in mind these don't annoy me much at all, but it is all I can think of)

1. You don't like to pick what we have for dinner

2. You are stubborn

3. When you are cold you still won't wear a coat.

That is all I can think of."

Really, dear!?!? This is it?!?! I LOVE him!!

But of course...I have to put in my two cents!!

1. I HATE picking what we are going to have for dinner! It is true!! It's the one task he asks me to do, that is pretty much the worse thing ever!! I don't really know why I hate it some much, I guess I would just have him pick...(If he picks, I usually say no and then end up picking :) haha)

2. I am NOT stubborn! :) OK, I will admit...I'm pretty much the most stubborn person on the planet!! :) haha...But Oscar doesn't get his stubborn-ness from...No he does not!!

3. HAHAHA...I love you!!

So what annoys your spouse about you?? Ask him and then post about it!!

I'm burning myself out with blogging...
I host 3 different blog hops/memes (with fabulous co-hosts), I have several reviews and giveaways, I participate almost daily in other blog hops/memes, I did the cutest pet contest (btw, I'm already planning another one), I usually post once a day sometimes multiple.... And more... Don't get me wrong I absolutely LOVE blogging and will probably do it forever, but right now I'm causing myself to be bloggy burnt...
I'm hoping I can get the last of my reviews and giveaways done this weekend and after the pet contest is over maybe I'll take a little break... It maybe one day (super long break, huh?) maybe it will be a week... Who knows.... Maybe I won't even take one at all... Maybe this feeling will just go away....
Any wanna guest post??
Maybe I'll be in more of a blogging mood when I'm able to talk about my hopefully wonderful information...
I have many posts I need to get up... Swaps, pay it forward, the things I do that bug Scott :), reviews and giveaways... Can I do I all this weekend??? You bet your ass!! :) so just a little heads up and advanced apologies... I have tons of posts coming up this weekend!!! Stay tuned!!
I know this post is all over the place and is rambles, but it is random rambles thursday!!!!

Smashbox Review

I was able to review a couple more products from Smashbox!!

Have I told you all how much I LOVE Smashbox? No? Well let me tell you again!

I LOVE SMASHBOX!!

They have so many great items!

This time I was able to review:

Limitless- Long Wear Lip Gloss SPF 15 in the color "Boundless"

and

Limitless eyeliner in "Peacock"

The eyeliner color is such a bold, beautiful color! It's not something I would normally wore, but I LOVE it! I put it on and throw some white glitter over it and it makes the color less bold! It comes with a pencil sharpener in the cap! I LOVE that!!

I LOVE the lip gloss!! I don't normally wear this color, but it looks great! This lip gloss is not sticky like most of the lip glosses I have used in the past!

All in all, these products are AWESOME!

I'm IN LOVE with Smashbox and all of their amazing products that I have tried so far!!

If you aren't using Smashbox products, then you are totally missing out!

Head over to their website and take a look around and make a couple purchases! You will not be disappointed!!

THANKS AGAIN SMASHBOX!!

Neoteric Diabetic Skin care Lotion

I was recently able to review the Neoteric Diabetic Skin Care Lotion from Tomoson.com

Scott is diabetic and has extremely dry feet and elbows and we have a hard time finding

a lotion that will keep them moisturized for long enough.

This lotion is amazing!! It works so well on his feet and elbows!

I have used it a couple of times too and it works fabulous!

Here are the ingredients in the lotion:

All in all, I think this is a fabulous lotion! It's very well priced as well. It works well on diabetic feet and elbows, and it works fantastic on non-diabetic people. I'm impressed with this lotion and recommend it to all those that are diabetic and even if you aren't diabetic but have really dry skin!

AquaNotes review AND giveaway!!!

When I came across AquaNotes on another bloggers website, I knew right away that I had to contact the company an ask if I could review their product!

I was so excited when they said YES!!

I received the product shortly after contacting them.

What is AquaNotes?

AquaNotes^® are made of waterproof paper that is totally recyclable, environmentally friendly, and non-toxic. Each pencil is water resistant and is made with Incense Cedar wood, a responsibly harvested renewable resource meeting stringent environmental requirements. Even the ink used to print the logo and company information on the notepad is soy based.

The product is designed to withstand exposure to wet environments. Water simply beads up and rolls off AquaNotes. Each 3.5 by 5.25 inch pad has 40 sheets of paper and each sheet is perforated for easy removal. AquaNotes easily and quickly attaches to any smooth surface with two suction cups that are secured with a stem-based cap. Pencils are secured with a suction cup pencil holder that provides convenient access whenever the need arises to write down an idea while you’re in the shower.

AquaNotes pads, pencils, and all its components are entirely made and assembled in the USA.

This is SUCH an awesome idea!! These have come in handy in the shower...OK, so they should be handy but Scott uses them to write me dirty little notes! :) (see above) We go back and forth with this a lot :)

There have been tons of times that I will come up with ideas of things to blog about while in the shower. Then I get out and completely forget. So now I no longer have that problem! I just write the ideas down (around the naughty notes ;)) and come and blog about them!

Like I said, I think this is such an awesome idea!! I was very impressed with this! I was actually really surprised that the paper was really waterproof! It doesn't get soggy like normal paper would in water. And the pencil doesn't smudge when it's wet!!

*~*~*~*

GIVEAWAY!!

AquaNotes have offered one of my readers a waterproof notepad!!

FILL OUT THE BELOW GOOGLE DOC...Entries in the comment section will not count...

Giveaway ends on 4/12/11

THANK YOU AQUANOTES!!
