Friday Ramblings.....

Gosh, I can't believe it's Friday already!  This January has been the fastest one I can ever remember...not complaining!  That little rodent will be called into service in a couple of days...in my opinion...doesn't matter what the little bugger sees....we are going to get a lot more than six more weeks of winter!  Just sayin'....

It's not hard to believe with all my wardrobe additions...it was time for a closet purge.  And...in my defence...Mr. Seventies has taken over one closet...so I am now down to two closets.  (we thought we had a mouse in the attic....like weeks and weeks ago....and have never caught anything in the traps).  But he still needs "access" to the attic hatch....which happens to be in the guest bedroom closet.  Our clothes (well...ok...mostly mine) needed to be dispersed...and I have yet to gain that essential real estate back!  He assures me I will....time will tell.

I have a large bag of clothing to drop off to the Mission Store...and three leather purses to pass on to my daughters.  And I think I can stop buying bras....counted 14 of them!  But I cannot pass them up when they come on sale!  They are super expensive...so I get a couple when they come on sale...and purge though my stash to cull any out with frayed edges, etc.  TMI?

Ok..so...I had to order this suade leather skirt...gorgeous!!  The price of the chocolate leather one I purchased earlier....has dropped again!



And this cute crop sweater....


And an order came in from Old Navy...not for me...but for my expectant little Mama!  There are no shops here that sell maternity clothes!  Can you believe that?  What do pregnant gals do for clothes?  Order on line I guess...or purchase clothes on the mainland.  Anyhow...she's growing out of her maternity leggings....I ordered her a couple of pair...a size larger and she reports they fit beautifully.  Let's hope with them, along with the rest of her maternity wardrobe fit until baby girl is born!  In February the mural will be painted on the nursery room wall!  You know I'll be posting photos!

And lastly...I found a new skin care line...and I love it!!  I have rosecea..it began when I was carrying my last daughter (hormone shifts can trigger rosacea)!  Rosacea causes redness and red flushing, sometimes little bumps on your face...loads of fun!  I've been taking a form of tetracycline for a while now...it keeps it at bay a bit.  There is no cure.  I saw a dermatologist regarding a few pre-cancerous patches on my face...(which she removed) and she prescribed a medication for my rosacea.  Didn't help it at all....and I went back to my regular medication.   So there ....a short course on rosacea...there will be a quiz later!  (jk)

I love make up and skin care products...but have to be very careful what I use.  Enter Riversol...a Canadian skin care company based in Vancouver.  I not only love their products, but the fact they are 100% cruelty free (no animal testing) and Canadian!!  (this is not a sponsored post...just sharing my discovery).  You can order samples for free....which I did and then I ordered the Redness Control Trio.  It consists of face wash, anti-redness serum and an awesome daily moisturizer!!

And it is so worth the $$.  It is not cheap or drug store brand..but when you've tried just about everything out there on the market (and some with disastrous results, I might add)....I will pay almost any amount for products that work.  My Dr loves when I try products and they make my condition so worse!  (sarcasm there).  

I've been using Riversol for a few days and so far...so good.  I highly recommend their products if you suffer from skin conditions such as mine...or just want a good skin care line!

So, that's all I have for today!  Super Bowl weekend (yawn...)....potential for storm Saturday night into Sunday...but today the sun is out....Mr. Seventies and I are heading out and about...and Liesel is pretty much shack happy!

Have a great weekend!
