Today, I’m sharing how I survive night shift by giving you the tips that I have found helpful, but also giving you a vlog of a week in my life. I felt like I couldn’t capture everything I wanted to say in a post, so I made a vlog to go along with it 🙂 If you’ve ever had questions…

My Skincare Routine

Beauty

Today I figured I would share my full skincare routine and the products I use on a daily basis. I mostly use products that can be found at Target, and I occasionally get things from Sephora or Ulta… but despite that, I never spend much money on those things!

9 Inexpensive Dinners that Don’t Suck

Food· Life

How to Rock Nursing School

Nursing

Don’t get me wrong, my college years were some of the best of my life, but nursing school is freaking HARD. I don’t miss it one bit. I’m writing this because I was not a straight A nursing student. I worked hard, cried a lot, felt like I was drowning, and wanted to quit on a number of occasions… BUT…

Summer in Duck, North Carolina

Travel

Every year for as long as G can remember, he has been going to Duck, NC in the Outer Banks with his family and their friends. It was a tradition that I was thrilled to join in on when we got married! It’s a really big group that goes (20+ people!) and we all rent out a house to stay…

I actually filmed this at the beginning of October and now I can say it has faded really nicely. This hair gloss gave my hair so much shine and toned it just a bit darker and cooler. I love the results! #hairgloss #athomebeauty #diyhair

Note: I did end up donating the formula elsewhere— I didn’t want to leave it outside because extreme temperatures can mess with the integrity of formula!

I took my toddler to the grocery store so we could pick out some shelf stable foods that are also good sources of protein. We made a couple of shelf stable birthday cake kits (everything included to make a cake!) and also donated a bunch of diapers that we no longer had use for!
