Flip Belt Must have if you are a yoga pants freak!

I love my yoga pants!

Anyone that knows me knows that I wear them ALL the time!!But I hate that there is no place for keys or my phone. Enter the FlipBelt!




This FlipBelt is awesome! Its stretchy and blends in with the pants. Its comfortable and doesn't move. Best of all, it has tons of storage space! I know that sounds silly, but it does! There is a zipper in the front and openings on the sides and in the back you can shove all sorts of stuff in there! 

Caution - be sure to get the right size otherwise you'll be muffintoppin everywhere. Not cute.

I received my flipbelt for free in exchange for my honest review.

You should definitely check it out on Amazon.

Protect your hardwood floors with Felt Pads

We have wood floors and we have kids. Not always a fabulous combination. Our kids plop down on the couch sliding it backwards and digging it into the floor.

We needed protection.

I have used sticky felt in the past on the dinning room chairs but it never seems to last. Before long the tabs are peeling off. I haven't been able to find the right size for our couch legs so I ended up putting a few of the round ones on each leg.

This package of 100 is awesome. If none of the precut sizes fit, there are full size sheets that you can cut from.

I haven't had any peel off so far and I haven't seen any new scratches or gouges, so I am completely satisfied that they are doing their job!

You can check them out on Amazon.

The Power of Music

There is something magical about music. Music has the ability to transport you back 30 years and put in a moment that you might have otherwise forgotten about.

I recently heard the song "I can't drive 55".  In an instant, I was eleven years old and in my mom's car as she was FLYING down the street. This as a 35 MPH road and my mom was BARRELING down  at 55MPH. It was as though she was in a moment of her own. She sang at the top of her voice, because of course the radio was turned ALL THE WAY UP. This moment was burned somewhere for some reason into my long term memory. Maybe I was frightened for my life. Maybe I was mortified, I was a preteen after all. Whatever the reason, I'm so glad it was! 

I have tons of memories from my childhood that revolve around music. 

I was lucky enough to have parents with great taste in music. A typical Saturday consisted of my mother cleaning and watering plants while dancing with the stereo blasting the Beatles or Pink Floyd. These were the days when the bigger the speaker the better the experience. The wood floors vibrated. It was good stuff!

Memories revolving around music seem to be so happy. 

I remember laying on the floor of my grandparents house with my grandfather. They had a floor model stereo. It had a small red power light indicator on the front at the floor. I remember my grandfather 
putting his finger over that light. Watching his finger glow, I was amazed.

My husband and I drove 12 hours to Florida for a visit. We were in our 20s with no kids and thought nothing of heading out of town for a short visit. The return drive home just a couple of days later was painful. We were both exhausted. We resorted to listening to Kool and the Gang to stay awake. To this day, every time I hear "Celebration" I smile thinking of that road trip.

Music is incredibly powerful. 

I need to play more music. Maybe this Mother's Day weekend, I'll have my mom dance around and clean my house. My kids' reactions will be priceless, as will the memory.

The prompt for today from The Daily Post on WordPress is “music.”

Check out this great Argan Oil Shampoo!!

I am really pleased with everything I have used from Majestic Pure. 

This Argan Oil shampoo is no exception.

I am really into how shampoos smell, so the first thing I did was unscrew the cap and give it a whiff. 

It smells really good!  

After shampooing my hair felt smoother and bouncier. So I definitely think it restored my hair's health.

The site says that it is safe for color treated hair.

You can get your own on Amazon.

I am completely in love with my butterfly wall!

I am completely in love with my butterfly wall!  

They were super easy to put up. Each pack comes with 24 butterflies and no two are the same. They vary in size from 4cm to 5cm.  You get a little circle of double sided tape for each butterfly. Just stick it and go! 




The tape is great because, if your like me and never satisfied, they are really easy to peel off and position somewhere else.

The colors are gorgeous! 

My one problem with these 3-d butterflies? I want more!! I really could fill an entire wall with them, and that would be okay..right?



You can create your own beautiful Butterfly wall! Check it out on Amazon.

Scars

I have a few visible scars from being a reckless tomboy. I mean you can only swing your tire swing off of the top of the doghouse into the house so many times without enduring a few scrapes.

The majority of my scars are internal. My scars have changed me deeply.

Although most people can't see my scars, the people who know me best can certainly see them.

• My distant stare while I'm reenacting a moment from the past - before my scars.
• The way I almost always avoid twins.
• The way I tense up whenever I hear an ambulance

My scars will never heal. 

There are others with scars similar to mine. Those that share the same heartbreak of loosing a child. We all find a way to put one foot in front of the other, to put on a happy face so that others don't feel awkward. 

I wish that the only scars I had were externally. Life would be quite different.
