Melting Galaxies

Holy life changer guys.  If y'all follow me in real like this is gonna be a repeat but I CAN NOT Holy life changer guys.  If y'all follow me in real like this is gonna be a repeat but I CAN NOT IGNORE THESE THINGS.  I found heaven in a bath bomb.  I have always been a fan of bath bombs and try to get my grubby paws on them all the time.  Normally I am content with the bags of 6 or so bath bombs you can get at Target (my holy grail).  They are cheap and a bit smaller but I throw two in at a time.  They dissolve pretty quick though- but the scent payoff is totally worth it.

Back to the main focus! These little beauties are called Fragrant Jewels and OMGOSH they are absolutely amazing.  First off- these guys are not badly priced.  They run about $15 I think but come with a ring.  You pick your size ring before you checkout so there is not a chance that you get a ring that would not fit your finger.  But honestly if I didn't get a ring I would still buy these- they are that amazing.  I am addicted to anything galaxy, literally.  I will buy anything galaxy.  So they debuted this Starry Night edition and of course I bought it.  It was a bath bomb and candle combo.  They showed up package so securely.  I don't know about you guys but I appreciate whenever something is packaged well. I order half my life from online and I get so aggravated when you order something cute or you have been expecting something to show up and it does..... and its broken or missing things just because of the packaging.

Anyways. The bath bomb looked like this when I opened it and I can not appreciate more the extra detail for this Starry Night.


Oh and the candle photo bombing back there- dual wick and smell fabulous!! But back to the bomb.  Y'all they even put little star thingy mabobs in it to make it more adorable!  The scent was OMGOSH flawless.  It started with a citrus with grapefruit aroma. Oh wait you are probably thinking like, "started?" YES. These bath bombs have layers of scents.  Did I forget to mention? Ohyes. So once you melted away the top layer. the next layer is a pineapple and peach goodness layer.  The core around the ring is a sandalwood and teak wood combo.  Lemme show y'all the colors this bad boy produced. You don't just get blue (although I think that is all I got in the video to show you). It has pockets of yellow, purple and white that if you don't disturb the water truly makes it look like a galaxy. 


I think the part that truly amazed me was how long they lasted.  I am used to quick dissolving bath bombs that leave the water nice but don't last more than a few minutes.  I think this bad boy lasted upwards of ten minutes.  And the ring is in a plastic ball like you would get from the vending machine and didn't leak at all.  You lso ge a code in the ball that tells you how much your ring is worth.  I personally love my ring.  I think the color in the jewel is gorgeous and just a very classy little right hand addition.  


You can see how blue the water gets here.  Now I have nail envy over my own nails.  Since I tried this bath bomb work has destroyed my nails... I am missing both my middle finger's polish and cracked two others.  Reasons why medics never get their nails done... cots eat polish.  

I really can not stop raving about these little guys and you all have to try them! You can find their website here.  Sorry for the long post but I had to share this with y'all! I love y'all so much and I might have another post up tomorrow but it all depends on how the night goes.

Toddler Hair Failures

How in the dickens do you do toddler hair? How do people do this? At Target the other day we passed this super mom with 3 kids (God bless her) within ages of 3, 4, and maybe 6.  That woman must put coke in her coffee to keep up with them.  Not to mention she was dressed fabulous, makeup and hair done and her kids were dressed stellar too. But her toddler daughter had french braids..... HOW?? My child just started tolerating a clip in her bangs let alone when I con her into a pony tail she lets be for approximately 2 hours before she rips that out.  And I have to ninja, light speed put in the pony tail otherwise she looses interest and rips it right out.  How are you able to get your kid to sit still long enough to do a french braid??


I convinced her Elsa wears her hair up and she should too... I think this lasted all of 3 hours though. And even now she won't let me do this. It's Elsa come on!!!  I am so close to just chopping her hair, well just the bangs. But if she won't tolerate me putting a clip how well would that hair appointment go? I just see it turning into this horrible experience and yeaaaaa no. She also loves to wear this hat I got her. Which she looks absolutely darling in so I have no qualms about that.. however how long can we just cover up hair and pretend it does not need to be contained? 



So until I can figure out how to con my child into having her hair up I am stuck with permanent messy toddler hair... and I look like a sloppy mom. But hey- she is alive and definitely thriving. Not sitting in bubble wrap and looking pretty. Shit she looks like a kid who does things. Oh my- I think I am going a bit over board. I think my wedding brain is starting to affect my normal brain... that or my concussion is still killing brain cells.  

Yes I gave myself a concussion at work the other day.  This is what happens when you get into a rig that isn't yours and try to stand up in the back.  News flash- ambulances were never made for tall people.  And I am a tall person.  If you have never been in the back of an ambulance we have this bar that runs from the back to the front so you can hold on while navigating the rig while someone is driving- ya know if you don't sea legs.  Anyways- the reason I love my rig (not the only reason, gotta love my big blue) is our bar is recessed into the ceiling, ya know, giving me more headroom.  However the fiance and I picked up an extra shift a week and it is not in our normal rig. First day in this rig I stand up with serious force and slammed my head right into this bar... bar of hell.  Did I mention in BB (big blue) our bar is nice and rounded and what not... not in this rig of Satan.  Sharp corners galore.  So I stand right up into this corner and see black and end up on the seat... somehow.  And next came the classic symptoms- nausea, vomiting, light headed, dizzy, slurred speech, couldn't form sentences... oh yea.  It was great.  But really I am sure I am good now... hopefully.  

Sorry for the short post but I missed my darlings- I swear I have more things I just need to actually type up... I will get there! But reviews on a bath bomb, ejuice and who knows! 

Until then my lovelies!
