I have decided to conduct a "social" experiment! My favorite thing to do by the way!  For the next few weeks I will be voting for my  favorite entries,,,,BUT I will not be leaving reviews!  I want to win as badly as anyone else but this has become a popularity contest not based on merit of entry,,,but by how many people you decide to vote for to receive votes back!  I have decided to take a chance on not winning a thing ,,,,,,,,because I'm quite certain that when I don't leave a review somewhere I won't get any votes and we'll see how far I drop.  My pic of the rearview mirror is in 29th place on 10/17/07  we'll see just how far I drop when people don't see a review from me!  I doubt that anyone reads this,,,,so if by chance you drop me a line and let me know your read it!  Thanks for all your past support!  Cindy

With all its shams, drudgery and broken dreams, it's still a beautiful world!   Just my thought for the day!

Why I would spend $1,000 on beauty products! Tags: Campaign: Fred Segal Beauty Lottery   312 Reviews Added: 8/15/2007 5:58 PM PT Last Modified: 9/2/2007 9:09 PM PT	Auto Post to Websites

That's the easiest question I've ever had to answer!   I'm in beauty college (yes at 46 changing careers!), I love applying makeup and will be offering makeup artistry as one of my specialties. I especially love teaching teenagers how to do makeup to look natural not trashy and I love special occasion makeup!  The kit Fred Segal has for starters is the bomb!  It's got everything I could dream of to start my business with a BANG!  However,  it is 1625.00 and I 'm looking at a repayment of 12,000.00 for my student loan!  Hmmm, maybe they could add another $625.00 to my loan for the balance of the kit!  Yeah, right!  But I'm saving all my tips from Beauty College to get that $625.00 ......for when I win that 1,000.00 shopping spree!  Well, Hey a girl can dream can't she??  !

I certainly hope that everyone knows that it was probably harder to post these before pics (yikes they are bad!)than it was to get the courage to go back to school at my age!     THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT AND KIND REVIEWS!

What's in my handbag? Tags: Campaign: What’s in Your Handbag?   243 Reviews Added: 7/22/2007 6:59 PM PT Last Modified: 7/22/2007 7:01 PM PT	Auto Post to Websites

Well the other day I was at my Doctors office discussing the fact that I have adult attention deficit disorder.....she asked for some information that was in my (backpack style) handbag and after several minutes of searching for this information, I got very frustrated and dumped my bag on the examining table!  Much to my embarrassment a ton of junk fell everywhere!!!!  There was a key ring with about 20 keys that I have no earthly idea what they belong to, at least 100 receipts (no kidding !)  some dated from 2005  (Yikes I really need to clean out my purse) 6 empty pill bottles, about seven dollars in change (that went all over the room) a zillion coupons (that I really did mean to use before they expired!) 12 hair ties, and a bunch of stuff stuck to a mint that had come out of the wrapper and got sticky (YUCK!). I also had 3 tubes of mascara , 2 lipsticks, and an eyeshadow that had opened and turned to dust all over everything inside.  Oh yeah! And of course the test she wanted that showed I tested positive for 4 out of the 5 kinds of Adult A.D.D. possible! (No wonder me and my bag are mess!)  Well I looked up to hand her the test and she was laughing so hard she was crying!  All I could say was "I think the inside of my head looked alot like my bag!"  She replied through tears of laughter  "No doubt about it"  Ok so now my new meds are working and I'm organizing my life.  A pretty, chic new bag would be a great start!!!!
