i'm a total smell junkie, so i've got to ask. what flavors? or rather, what were the good ones?
i have this grapefruit one that i keep smelling (at my bedside table). the citrus i seem to handle pretty well. it's all the fake floral ones that do me in.
i have a thing for the pacifca candles/scents, latelyl.

I know it's only like 9 am but I sort of woke up thinking about making some homemade bacon mac & cheese.
I think I shall venture out to the store very soon here & see if they have any Wisconsin Gruyere.
Little bit of heavy cream...some rosemary...ohhhhh Mamacita!
Yeah...I srsly need to make some by lunchtime.
So...lil...what is "Winterjam"??? Like who are the bands? Anyone we know of,or like local peeps?

I just got a gentle slap in the head. Man...I don't like it when God gives me the what for. But y'know, I need it sometimes.
Today my nerves have been off the wall. Just completely nervous about today. Not just today, either. But for next week. Afraid I'll mess up. I'll be too socially awkward. Everyone will think of me as this or that. Me, Myself, and I. That's all I have been thinking of. Is ME. And it's giving me the worst anxiety I've ever experienced.
Here's the thing - It isn't about ME. None of this is for me, or about me. This has nothing to do with me and everything to do with God. This has got to do with glorifying God. So in other words, I need to shut up and let God be God and let Him work.

I love citrus! My sister gave me citrus body wash and lotion for Christmas. Used it yesterday and this morning. So fresh. I mentioned a few months ago here that I bought a men's citrus body wash from Mennen for my son and it smelled so amazing that I snuck into his bathroom and took it.
I ended up buying watermelon and linen scented candles, and these body sprays from B&BW: Velvet Sugar, Warm Brown Sugar and Cashmere Glow. Very light scented. Heavy scents give me a headache, so I try to stick with light body sprays rather than perfumes.
My favorite scents: Sandalwood, anything fruity (especially orange, lemon and coconut), cinnamon/brown sugar, and light southern florals like lily of the valley/ magnolia/gardenia/roses/hydrangeas/lilacs. Lavender kills me allergy-wise, so I avoid it completely.
I love the smell of leather (new cars, shoes, wallets, purses, HOLSTERS and even Bible covers haha), new books, freshly bathed/powdered babies (amazing ), spring grass, the spray of the ocean.
I'm all about aromatherapy too. Spic and Span makes a lilac very lightly scented cleaner. When I walk through my backdoor into my house and catch a whiff of lilacs in my clean house every evening, it makes me smile.....I'm home.
The new scents for Spring at B&BW are so fresh. I particularly liked Beautiful and Airy. I will, of course, buy the citrus as well when Spring comes.

iTOREtheSKY random & useless life updates # 8027
So...I got all my fixin's do make my awesome mac & cheese. Now after coming back from the store a while ago,I find I am no longer hungry. Going to the grocery store has the reverse effect on me I think than most people...I tend to be less hungry once I know I have food in the house. Kinda bizzare really. So yeah,anyways...I shall make my yummy bacon mac & cheese extravaganza later tonight I think.
Applied this morning for a job basically doing customer service (similar to what I do now) for a I guess gardening distribution center. They handle all sorts of seeds & stuff for all types of vegetable,flowers,etc. So I'd be on the phone all day & at a computer dealing with people's questions & taking orders for them. Best thing about the job is that it's full time & has benefits. I'm really more just concerned with the 40 hrs a week,because my main goal is to save up enough loot to get the heck outta dodge ASAP! I know,I know..in God's timing. Now I just have to make sure (or I should say,God has to assist me in) not getting evicted from my current domicile & come up with the like gazillion $$$ in need to pay my landlord in back rent.
I truly hate this. I have never ever ever been in a situation where I've owed someone money,other than maybe like a doctor bill which as long as you give them a few bucks every month,they're happy. Thing is...I hate debt. (like who enjoy's debt,right?) It's a terrible feeling to know that you "owe" someone something & they have this "power" over you.
Only power I want over me is JESUS! *funny,as I type that..and I think..hmmm "then why do I fight Him so much?"*
lol ..well,that's an entirely different post ,now isn't it? Indeed.
Been in a very wanting to "create" something amazing mood lately too.
I really want to go out & buy some acrylic paints but I really don't have the $$$ to be wasting right now on stuff like that.
Paints are not cheap. Nor,is a decent canvass.
I so do miss when I owned my own home & I had a huge room downstairs converted into a sort of "workshop",where I could crank up the tunes & paint & build junk. My dog would come down & start snoring loudly on the bed in the spare room adjacent to the room I used to paint in & I'd have to keep turning the music louder & louder. I'm certain that the louder I turned up the music,the louder he'd snore. lol He'd wake up the second I get up to go upstairs,and I'd look at him & say...
"Do you realize,puppy that YOU are even louder than Chester Bennington when he screams...do you????"
Of course he'd look at me like I was an idiot (rightfully so) and then yawn at me.
So...I really have no idea as to why I am sharing all this nonsense with you people,so ummm.yeah..imma go now.
