 Good morning. Welcome back to another vlog. This is very risky right now. I have my camera balancing on two supplement bottles stacked on top of each other and it's probably not the safest most secure situation right now, but I like to live life on the edge. What can I say? So hi Happy Wednesday. This week is flying by. It's so weird I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that it's Wednesday And that's why I'm starting this vlog so late in the week is because I just feel like my week is just getting started I don't know like where did the last two days go? I have no idea, but hi Here we are. I just took Benny out for a walk around my apartment and there's an area in the back That's like a little bit wooded and I saw a big ass snake that just like Slytherin on by and it was Closer to me than I felt comfortable with so as soon as I saw that I was like, oh, goodbye We got to go. I've heard that there's a lot of different snakes down here But that was my first time seeing one in person. I don't even know what kind it was I feel like I'm gonna be discovering a lot of interesting things now that we're getting close to summer as far as like bugs and just different critters Not excited about it, but It is what it is. I also just got my Nespresso order So I'm going to refill my Glass jar over here because as you can see I was completely out I had my last pod this morning and then this got delivered at my door. It was perfect timing So this is my favorite kind. I have the for a two-oh next Machine I Mostly just got a bunch of that kind I also got the decaf version of that one because sometimes I like to have a cup of coffee later in the day and I'm trying to be good and cut back on my caffeine consumption and then I also got the carafe pourover style One sleeve of these Beautiful So today I have a nail appointment, which I'm very excited about Because I love this color, but they are getting so grown out I'm gonna cut them down a little bit and go with a rounder shape like I normally do I was trying like the shorter square look for a while and it was cute, but it's just The oval shape is just it's just more me I just like it makes my fingers look like longer and slimmer and then I want to stop it target because I was watching Alexandra Rodriguez This morning her most recent vlog and she went to target in that vlog and she got the cutest little Wrap skirt and I really want to go and see if they have it at my target And I also need some more candles for my apartment because I burned through all the ones that I had And it's been a while since I've like just done a little poking around in target It's like very therapeutic, you know, and then Benny has a vet appointment later this afternoon He's just due for his like yearly shots. Yeah, that's the plan. It's a really really beautiful day It's so hot and sunny out and I really would love to spend time outside and go for a walk So I'm gonna see if I can squeeze that in at some point I also just remembered that I want to apply a bulls yesterday and I got this ginger bomb I wanted to have it this morning before I eat any food. So Cheers to our health and wellness. Oh Yes, this one is good. This is actually spicy. I feel like the last few times I've gotten ginger shots from different places They just don't have any kick or spice to them. I'm like, what the hell I want to feel the burn I really have been feeling good the last few weeks I think like moving down here, which if you didn't know if you're new I moved from Pennsylvania to North Carolina at the beginning of December completely by myself just like wanted to get a fresh start didn't know anybody and It's been such a like exciting fun time in my life but at the same time it's been taking a toll on my mental health and I've been all over the place like my anxiety has never been higher ever in my life and it's just been affecting like my overall health too because When your mental state isn't in the best place it's hard to like stick to a healthy exercise routine and a good like eating bread juman and stuff so I Just haven't been like Taking care of my body the way that I would like to and the way that I should so now though like these last few weeks I've just been feeling so much better and so much more at peace. I think I'm just like getting more settled here, you know, like I've been here for four months now, and I think I'm starting to I Don't know just like settle and I've been getting back into a good healthy routine and Taking time to like focus on what I'm eating I'm making sure that I'm eating all of the meals that I need to have throughout the day and not Under-eating and also trying to not overeat, you know, just just being healthy And I just want to like look and feel my best. So starting the vlog off with a ginger shot All day and it was like Just non-stop because I went and got my nails done which by the way how cute I was hoping to do like a mango Orange type of color, but they didn't have anything that was like exactly what I was looking for So I went with this kind of like mustard yellow and I went back to my usual shape. I Love it. This length and shape is just like Perfect for this shape. I just say that I want something in between almond and oval I didn't even show her pictures or anything. That's all I said and she got it perfect So that's how I would describe this shape if you're looking to get something similar So yeah, I got my nails done and then I went over to Target and I was able to find that skirt as you saw Which I'm so excited about It's from a new day at Target, I just love That it has like this part that wraps in the front and I just feel like it's so flattering it's Stretchy and it kind of like it reminds me of a sarong and I feel like you could wear it as a bathing suit cover up or Wear it out. I mean, it's like I feel like it's very versatile, but I have this cute little white crop top that I Think will just look so Beautiful with this and then this is the candle. I ended up getting daydream cactus and rose And this is from the project 62 line of anything rose sent in like the packaging. I just love how like clean and simple So yeah, that's all I got at Target and then After that I had to race all the way back because I didn't think this through at all I went down to Target and Then the vet is like kind of over in that same side of town so I had to come all the way back to my apartment to get Benny and then go all the way back and There was a lot of traffic. So it's just been like non-stop literally drove here Ran upstairs got him ran back down went to the vet But he is all Vaccinated up now, right? Hmm, baby. He was just due for you know all of his Yearly shots. He needed like his rabies and all that kind of stuff and they cut his nails while we were there So that's nice. What a handsome boy Show everybody your nails Wow We both got our nails done today, huh? He did pretty well at the vet but he was pretty scared when we first got there and he tried to jump up on me and Just cut my leg open That was bleeding for quite a while. I'm gonna clean that and then put a band-aid on it and Make some dinner It's almost six o'clock now, and I'm starting to get kind of hungry. I think I'm going to make some ground turkey and then I have some shaved brussel sprouts And I'm just gonna mix that all up. Oh, wait, I'm gonna spin it I can throw that in there too, and I'm just gonna make like a bowl Just throw all that stuff in a pan. Actually the brussel sprouts I'm gonna put in the air fryer get them nice and crispy and then the rest of the stuff I'm just gonna toss in a pan and then have it over rice and Gonna steam some broccoli and have that on the side And that'll be good because then I'll make like a whole pan of it and I'll have lots of leftovers I'll have like lunch and dinner for tomorrow, and I can just heat it up, and it'll be super easy Dinner is made and with my dinner.

Who can you not stand? I absolutely hate Colby. I cannot stand him You're here because someone in your relationship has issued an ultimatum. Happy Easter Sunday I haven't vlogged in a couple of days. I was just like out and about and getting work done And then yesterday I had a fully lazy day barely got up off of the couch like literally just later on I actually started watching a show on Amazon Prime called upload And I binge the entire first season of that yesterday and that's literally all I did It was great, but today I was like I got to be productive. I need to do my Sunday cleaning I don't feel guilty having a lazy day. I feel like they're necessary every once in a while But when I can see that the space around me is Messy not clean and I know that there's things I need to do. It just feels so much more satisfying To do what you have to do first and then just relax in a nice clean space Knowing you have nothing that you need to do. I also have just been feeling gross like my hair needs to be washed So I figured let me clean because I know I'm gonna get all sweaty and disgusting from that Anyway, the only thing that I am still working on is laundry, but everything else is done So I'm gonna hop in the shower. Oh, we need to get a new Bath mat I Love this bath mat. It is so plush. It's by UGG. I got it at Kohl's I am just complete Lost for words. I took my shower. I was watching my show and then I decided I was gonna start making dinner. I put a pot on the stove to boil. I was gonna make some pasta I literally added the pasta to the pot Stepped away to go put the pasta back in the cabinet and then I just heard a loud pop and I looked over and The pot literally just cracked like it just shattered on the freaking burner so Here it is this was the pot I was using so yeah Some of the pasta was sitting right on the burner, so it was just Burning and I was so scared it was gonna light on fire and my apartment smelled like Just burning pasta. It was awful. I opened the door to the balcony I turned the vent on above the stove to suck the air out and It's finally smelling better in here now and I was waiting for everything to cool down So I could clean this all up, but yeah, this is all there's just water all over the place All like down inside the burner So I have to lift this up and like clean all inside there fun stuff So needless to say I just got so frustrated and I gave up and I door-dashed I decided to get some soup from Carabas. That just sounds really good and they had a coupon. So Perfect, so I'm gonna clean this up and I'll show you the food when it gets here. Food just got here So excited. So I got the Sicilian chicken noodle soup from Carabas. It is so Freakin good. This looks like a ridiculous amount. I actually ordered two bowls But I guess I didn't have any large-sized bowls. So they gave me four cups It just didn't seem worth it to only order one bowl. I'll just have leftovers, but this is so good It's like my favorite soup. Mmm tons of vegetables It's like a little bit spicy. It's so good and then They always give you a side of bread With some olive oil and herbs. I'm gonna eat my dinner and continue watching this show Highly recommend. It's called upload. It's on Amazon Prime. I'll see you guys in the morning It felt so good waking up this morning to a clean apartment and it's rainy and gloomy outside and I don't know. It just feels like so cozy in here. I look a little crazy I washed my hair yesterday and then I didn't Wow, I didn't put anything in it. I literally just Let it air dry and I was kind of contemplating like rewetting it and putting product in it or maybe putting some heat on it or something, but honestly, I Feel like I've been doing a lot with my hair recently because I went and I got it lightened again When was that a couple weeks ago and since I got it done, I have just been like Wearing it smooth and putting heat on it So I'm just gonna leave it be let it chill give it a break. So it looks a little bit Crazy it is Monday. I have a couple things to do today I have some stuff that I want to order from Amazon because I need more hangers after I did all that laundry yesterday I realized oh, I don't have enough hangers for all of the clothes that I own anymore and then I want to get a screen like a magnetic screen door that I can put Outside of my balcony door. So that way in the summer months I like to leave my balcony door open a lot just to like get some fresh air that way Benny can go like in and out as he pleases but I know the bugs are gonna be pretty bad soon. So I ordered one already actually weeks ago and I measured and I thought that I had ordered the right size But apparently not it was way too small. So I sent that back I need to order a new one in a bigger size and then I also wanted to order a Lash lift kit I could look for a place here and go to somebody for that But it's just kind of like an expense that I don't feel is worth it And I am actually certified it to do them. I used to do them on clients back in the day So you lash extensions and lift intense. So once that gets in I will definitely Share the process in a vlog. So stay tuned And then I need to go grocery shopping later because my fridge is super empty I think all I have in there is Some broccoli and then I'm recording a new episode for my podcast Later tonight with my friend and then I need to edit this vlog and post it So that's what we got on the agenda for today. First things first. I Gonna place this Amazon order Velvet hangers A 30 pack I think should be good then I Lash lift kit I Have tinting stuff already. So I don't need that. So I just need the stuff to actually do the lift Okay, I think I'm gonna get this one because it has the most reviews and the best sounds good and then I'm gonna go measure this door just to make sure That I'm getting the right size of this time 82 by 38 Carried all that up in one trip. So I want Needed to get a couple non-food things I don't want to be completely honest. I know at the beginning of this vlog. I said that I've been you know Trying to be really healthy. I did a ginger shot and I bought a lot of junk food Purposefully later this week one of my really good friends is coming to visit me and I just wanted to like Fully stock up my kitchen and I don't know like when you're on vacation and you're like with your friends and stuff You know like you want to just indulge and enjoy so I thought Let me get like some easy Snack things so I know that a lot of the stuff that I got is not healthy I don't need to hear about it in the comments. It's not stuff that I normally eat on a regular basis Just putting that disclaimer out there So I got a whole bunch of different pastas just to like restock because I Am running very low and I don't really eat pasta very often But I do like to keep some back stock of it in the kitchen just in case and then I also got some pasta sauce I got I was completely out and then I got some frozen pizza For cheese and then a garden veggie thin crust which like, you know, if we're gonna have a frozen pizza at least this is like Sort of a healthier option. I also got some chicken nuggets and then I got some Golden crispy crowns So I'm so good and then I got turkey bacon. I did get some healthy things. I got bananas a bottle of Pino I've never tried this before. This is the winemakers selection brand. Oh, then I saw this and I kind of Spontaneously decided to get it does that it keeps cold drinks cold for 24 hours and hot drinks hot for 12 hours And has a leak-proof lid. I like that it has this handle and like an easy Drinking spout. I have been going to the beach a lot and going on hikes and walks and all of the water bottles and thermoses that I have are like all around this size Which in comparison and I will literally finish the entire thing Before I'm even like halfway finished with my hike usually so I wanted something bigger And I like that it has this handle and the color is so pretty I also needed some more tampons. I got some tostido scoops because I have some salsa and bean dip Still left in my fridge. It's got a big thing of strawberries Then I got some frozen shrimp Italian sausage ground turkey And some cinnamon rolls. Oh, I almost completely missed this thing too. This was only 15 bucks. How amazing It holds two gallons and I wanted to get this with summer coming up I plan on having some beach days with my friends this way We can just fill this up with some drinks or if we ever do like a barbecue or something like that I just plan on having a lot of like outdoor get-togethers with my friends Anyway, I'm going to make myself something to eat I'm going to be FaceTiming with my friends so that we can record our podcast in about an hour or so So I'm going to wrap up this vlog here. I'm going to start a new one Like I said, my friend is coming later this week and I'm planning on vlogging a ton with her She is not camera shy at all whatsoever. So I think it'll be really really fun So stay tuned for it the next vlog. I'll see you really soon. Bye
