Unflavored Gelatin, freak out & reddness

So the title I'm sure is a little bit out there. Let me start at the beginning. Pinterest. If you don't already follow me on there click here. Anywho while I was on there I came across this awesome looking blackhead mask. Now I have major blackheads. Its as if I have dirt on my nose or something. So of course I was on that like white on rice. Here are my steps for this mask. I suggest you click on the link, if you haven't already from above.

              My freshly washed face! Sorry for the whiteness. I cannot tan for some odd reason.

Here are the ingredients she said to use. I had everything on hand. Also the Gelatin I got from Fry's, and its already prepacked in 1 tablespoon, which was awesome! I also used a used yogurt container.

Mixing time!

THEN I MISSED A VERY IMPORTANT STEP. THAT IS WHY YOU SHOULD FOLLOW THE LINK

I didn't put this in the microwave...so this is what I got...

Why didn't it look like the pic?!

Soooo I waited 17 mins just to make sure those bastard blackheads leave my dirty looking nose!

When I started to "peel" it off, it didn't peel off...I was scratching that shit off...

This is the part where I started to freak out! It was as if I had super glue on my face and I

couldn't get that shit off! I was scratching my face like a maniac. My kiddos actually came in the bathroom just to see "mommy acting like a kitty". At least they had a flipping blast...little shits.

So what were my results after I finally gave up scratching my face like I was under attack by ants...

REDNESS!!!!

And that damn beast of a pimple was making sure he was on high alert now!

Anywho, my skin does feel nice and soft now =] I am going to definitely try it out again but this time I am not going to forget a step!!! So is this a pinterest winner or failure??

Have any of you tried any beauty tips from pinterest? Was it a win or fail?

Until next time! Which might be in a hour ;]

And here I am again...

So TJs bday was on Monday, we went to dinner and sang happy birthday to him. He was so excited! He is just soooo stinking cute! Proof are in the pics! Which reminds me, I still need to finish those damn bday invites. They will be the death of me I tell you!

Gorgeousness right?! My kiddos are the most beautiful children to me...yet I may have a biased opinion. who knows?! Anyways TJ had a great time for his bday. I didn't give him his presents yet, I'm going to wait until his party so that way he won't think he gets presents all the time when it is around the time of his bday. Plus "Miss Diva" will get jealous, and that is just a hot mess waiting to happen. Also today is my madre's bday! Happy birthday you mean old lady!

So I have officially started to get back on my diet. I have gained more weight back than I would like to admit. I stepped on the scale today and it felt as if my heart and spirit hit the ground. I feel like a disappointment. So what did I do? I grapped all the cookies and ice cream in my house that I could find and stuffed my face and watched the notebook. NOT! Geez, its like I am a fat girl or something ;] I actually got my kiddos and puppy into the car and drove over to these grass fields by my house.                                                                                                                                                 

And this is what we ended up doing for about 30 mins.

Running around! Sorry all blurry, its kinda hard to get a steady pic when all your fat is jiggling while your trying not to pass out from jogging for 7.3 seconds. shits true. sad.

And just because they are cute!

And this is what happened when we came home...

If only my kids would do that too. But of course they wouldn't because their little shits, but I love my little shits. Which reminds me, TJ is still working on potty training. I have been putting undies on him but he will just pee in them! And leave me awesome pee spots to clean in our VERY light tan carpet. Like I said little shits. What I don't understand is he is completely fine with pull ups, have been for a couple of months. Goes to the toilet and everything, but as soon as those undies come out, its like all that potty training goes out the door? What gives?! Any advice or tips?! Cuz this mama is broke and don't want to buy any more damn pull ups.

Anywho back to my whole weight loss crap. So I had a fit n' fruitful from Jamba Juice for breakfast, peanut butter sandwich for lunch, 2 small burritos and taco for dinner. Not the healthiest of choices but its better than what I really wanted of hitting up IN n OUT drive thru for a double cheeseburger with fries and shake...Explain to me why I didn't get that again? Oh wait it's because of my giant lard ass that jiggles even after I sit down.

Well my 1 reader let's hope I get another reader soon so that way I don't scare you off so it's like you'll have back up or something. Have an awesome night!

Life.

It seems to just get in the way sometimes. Or should I say people? This weekend I had an unexpected visitor which is very frustrating to begin with, then that person hasn't changed despite what everyone tells me. I am just happy that those people saw for themselves that that person has not changed. Not only was that person looking for handouts but also caused a lot of unnecessary issues that shouldn't have been there in the first place. I am taking summer classes but this time online, so I had to "log in" at 5pm on last Friday. Well when does that person show up? Around 4...Great...Well since I had to go drive around and look for this person and realized this person had nothing with them, I then had to go to the store and buy clothes and other things. Well by the time everything was settled, guess what time it was my 1 reader?! 8pm...So now since I didn't log in, I was dropped from the class, and it not only messed up with my academic schedule but TOTALLY F'D UP my financial aid. Now I have to reapply and switch everything around. Tell me how can I do this when I work like 45 mins away so I have to leave a hour before I have to be at work, and then the commute back, so I don't get to the school on time to reapply for everything. UGH!!!!dlkfdlfdjflakjdfljdljdlj...yup.

Anywho I am still running behind for tjs bday party. I still cutting out mickey heads! WTF?! I need to get on the "move your ass" train. ASAP. Let me show you the one of the outlines for the mickey heads. My son is sooooo excited. As well as my daughter. She thinks she is the party planner. ahaha its so cute seeing them work together.

I know its kinda hard to see but these are the mickey heads I am cutting out. Cute huh? ;]

Back on track

 Hey everyone (or more correctly, hey my 1 reader),

I know I have been MIA for a bit, my mom had a lot of medical issues going on as well as me. It seems when I get sick, I get everything at once. I might as well just hit 5 birds with 1 stone I suppose.

Anywho to catch you up on speed, I am still working full time, taking some online courses for the summer, a proud mommy to a recent kindergartener graduate!, and a new PUPPY! How rocking is all of that?! I can't believe that my daughter is old enough to have graduated from kindergarten! I remember when my daughter was a little chunky monkey watching Will & Grace with me =] Yes, we have amazing taste in television. As for the puppy, well technically he is a mutt but the cutest mutt I have ever seen! We named him Rocco! How stinking cute huh?

Also if you haven't noticed, I didn't mention anything about my diet. Why? Umm how about becuase I am a big fat FAIL at it! In between hospital food, working 46 hours, taking summer classes instead of taking a break, I just really have not had time to workout as much as I would have liked to. I will admit if I truly wanted to make time I would, but by the end of the day I rather spend that hour of time I would spend working out on sleeping.                                                                                                    

So I am slowing trying to get back on the healthy train, like using olive oil instead of regular oil. No soda. I don't even remember when is the last time I had (my secret addition) coka-cola. Which reminds me I am craving a tall glass of one right now...ugh...

I have also decided that I am moving back to California in August. Reason being, I despise Arizona. I dislike the heat, people, and the government here. No wonder Arizona is the laughing stock of the nation. That is all I am going to say about that because I don't want to cause any drama for posting my opinion. The reason I am going to California is because I am from there and that is my heart is. Also to get away from all the baby daddy drama once and for all. And yes I know "you should run from your problems" or "no matter where you go, so will your problems", but the thing is alllll my problems started in Arizona and that is where they will be left.

On a lighter note, my son's birthday is in 2 flipping short weeks and I don't even have the invites made or have any idea where I am going to have the party at! WTF?! Get it together E! So tonight I get to make like 30 mickey mouse heads and somehow plan a party to be able to send out the invites by this upcoming Monday the latest! I'll post pics of the awesome invites that this creative mind creates!

So I have somewhat decided what kind of blog I want this to be. I want this to be as real as possible. I curse like a sailor so now you will probably see that. I dislike many things with is probably not the greatest thing. I have a heavy sarcastic humor, without a filter which sometimes puts me in a weird spot. ahaha oh well. But thats all the time I have for right now. Until next time my 1 reader!
