Day 304- Packing a razor

I love this.  This pin has packing tips.  My favorite is to use a binder clip to pack a razor.  I always lose the little cover that comes with the razor. 

Now, I don't have to worry about packing a razor in my suitcase.  This will keep it safe.

Day 303- Mosquito Spray

I saw this pin which says that Listerine will keep mosquitoes away.  Just pour some into a spray bottle and spray whenever you are outside. 

Luckily, we haven't had many mosquitoes yet, but this will be good to know later in the summer.

Day 302- Planks

This was me this morning.  My new workout video has three planks in it.  I think I need a new workout.

Day 301- Birds

I feel like the birds around my house sit around and wait until I clean my car to poop on it.  Seriously.  Every single time I clean my car, it is dirty the next day.  It's so gross.

Day 300- Floorobe


I wasn't aware that there was a term for this, but I have had a floorobe for years without even knowing it.  For those who don't know, a floorobe is when you put clothes on your floor so you don't have to hang them up.

Day 299- I must have said it wrong

This is why I love "Downton Abbey."

"I take that as a compliment."
"I must've said it wrong."

These two are my favorite characters.  Well, Branson is another one.

Day 298- This blew my mind

I couldn't believe this, so I had to Google it to confirm it.  Elijah Wood was in "Back to the Future: Part 2."  He was the video game kid.

This was more amazing than the time I realized Scarlett Johansson was in the movie "North."

Day 296- Hair Straightner Holder

I have been wanting to make this for such a long time now, but I can't find any cute pot holders.  I want this pink with white polka dots, but I can't find anything that isn't hideous looking.  Seriously, where do you get cute pot holders?

To make a flat iron holder, all you do is fold a pot holder in half length-wise and sew the up the side and the bottom.  It's so simple and makes packing easier.

I think this all the time.

Day 294- My dream hair


As a rule, I don't usually get my hair cut like a celebrity's, but I saw this picture of Nina Dobrev from the Vampire Diaries.  I absolutely love this haircut.  I don't watch her show, but I am going to get my hair cut just like hers this week.  I'm so excited.

Day 292- British Accent.


I'm glad that I'm not the only one who walks around with a fake British accent after I watch too much Downton Abbey.  Of course, I also walk around with a fake Louisianan accent after walking True Blood.

Day 291- We're not friends

This is exactly what I feel like when people tell me that I am quiet.  Why would I want to talk to people that I don't like?  My friends know that I am very talkative, but I only talk a lot to people I like.  Simple as that.  I'm glad Pinterest gets me.

Day 289- Sweatpants

Created for exercise.  Used as the exact opposite.  It's so true.  I wear sweatpants for so much more than exercise.  I'm wearing them right now and I have no plans do to anything other than sit on the couch.

Day 286- Goodbye Love Handles

Do you think this will work?  I need to work out my oblique muscles.   The rest of my body is slimming down, but my love handles are still in tact.  I'm going to try it this morning.  Hopefully, I'll like it.

Day 283- Coffee- It's what gets me through the day

"Alright.  Let's fucking do this!!"  That's exactly how I feel today.  I even have my coffee in hand.  I have a long day ahead of me.  I am helping move someone.  It's going to be a long drive, an easy move, and a long drive again.  Why did I agree to do this?

Day 282- Life-size Lincoln Logs

Here are life-size Lincoln Logs.  Where was this when I was a child?  This would have kicked butt.  They must be foam.  When I have kids, I am so making these out of pool noodles.

Day 281- Burn 100 calories right now

This workout supposedly burns 100 calories.  It only takes 9 minutes.  I tried it and it's pretty easy.

Day 280- Leggings are not pants!

I wish that everyone would realize that leggings are not pants.  The other day, I was subbing at an elementary school and I was shocked at how the teachers were dressing.  Most of them were in jeans, which must be acceptable in this school.

However, two of them were in sweatpants and t-shirts.  One was in leggings and a t-shirt.  The t-shirt only went to the waist, so clearly the leggings were being worn as pants. 

How can you be taken seriously when you are wearing leggings like they are pants?  Seriously.  She wasn't wearing pants.  Just leggings.  It was so annoying.

Dress for the job you want, not the job you have.

Day 278- Whiten Toenails

I keep seeing this pin on Pinterest.  It says that you can whiten toenails by scrubbing your nail with a toothbrush and whitening toothpaste.  I thought for sure that it wouldn't work, so I tried it.

My toenails have been looking dirty and gross ever since I started running again.  I have been putting hydrogen peroxide in the water when I soak my feet in ice water, but it hasn't been enough.  I didn't have anything to lose.

I certainly wasn't going to waste a toothbrush, so I used my finger to rub the toothpaste onto my toenails.  I made sure to get under the nail as best I could.  Then, I let it sit for a couple of minutes before rinsing my foot off. 

Surprisingly, my toenails were much whiter.  My big toes are still a little discolored, but the rest of them look amazing.  And my feet smell minty fresh.  The only bad part was that the toothpaste seemed to dry out my skin a little.

Day 277- Make Flip Flops Cute

I love this idea.  You can take a cheap pair of flip flops and make them look like nice sandals.  Personally, I don't like the beads that they use in the pin, but I love the idea.

Day 276- Shaving Legs for Summer

This was how I felt when I had to shave my legs to wear a dress this morning. Of course, this pin has some errors, but the message is alright.

"Goodbye leg hair,
 We had a glamorous affair, but warm weather is here and you must go.  Until we meet again...Next winter OK?"

Day 275- How to set a table

A week ago, my mom, my sisters, and I were watching Downton Abbey.  This led to a fight about how to set a table.  My mom thought that Carson was setting the table wrong.   I never thought I would fight about that, but I did.   I tried to explain that he was doing it right, but she wouldn't listen.

If I had known about this pin, I would have won the disagreement.

Day 274- Pixilated Towel

I know several people who would love to get the pixilated towel.  It would make a hilarious Christmas or birthday present.  Seriously, someone is getting this in their stocking this year.
