I Picked Up the Paper Today...

And was totally outdone!  There was an article talking about ethnic mutts, some foolishness about Facebook scams that probably haven't been circulating since last year, and other such nonsense that does not concern me.  I just don't get how a paper that I am suppose to identify with can be so irrelevant to me.  There was a small area of interest that discussed some current things going on in the world, but again, I am only able to recall scandal.  Local news is just as bad.  I read once on a site that offered simple ways to relieve stress, and one of the top ways listed was not to indulge in local news.  The suggestion was in no means to cut you off from what's going on, as a matter of fact, it was advised to instead get your news on the world level instead.  The reason given is because it is so emotionally charged and depressing.  There is nothing we can do, yet we burden ourselves and our minds with what we see.  I now agree.  I have p...

Appapalooza: Flipboard

All I can say about this app is that it is the be all end all for the literary inclined!  I love how it can be completely customized and only display things you find relevant, even your social media!  It's like taking all the things you love to do on your phone and having it organized in a digital magazine layout.  You can even create your own magazines!  This app makes me feel like I'm a whole lot more techno savvy than I really am.  Best part of all?!  I can make me my top story!!! Ha!!

E.L.F. and the Customer Service Experience

Soooo, because my husband adores me,  he sponsored a super-sized e.l.f. Haul to inaugurate my YouTube channel, the Queen's Spot.  For the entire month of July, I will be sharing these products with viewers over the course of 8 installments of "Confessions of a Shopaholic", which is what I will be entitling my haul series.  I have been building a massive list of products over the past several months, adding, subtracting, re-adding, and changing my mind over and over again.  I finally perfected the list and felt like it was time to make it happen.   When it came time to place my order, I was advised one of the 32 piece endless eyes limited edition pro palettes I had planned on ordering was no longer available.  So I didn't sweat it, as there was a version still available which was very similar and also my reason for not purchasing both.  When I scrolled over to add to my bag, it indicated it was out of stock.  Although disgruntled, I entered my...

What Do Your Clothes Say About You?!

When I get dressed, its with intent and purpose.  There is something I want to convey visually to all who lay eyes on me.  This should always be the point.  Whether you realize it or not, clothes DO speak.  The question is, are your clothes talking about you behind your back???!!! Inspecting clothes prior to wearing them is going to be your most important and useful tool.  Making sure there's no holes, rips, unintentional tears, or missing buttons is a quick and easy way to improve your overall appearance.  Think about the way you want to look before you decide on an outfit, focussing on where you are going and the proper attire for the venue.  As adults, I shouldn't need to tell you to neatly press each item as well, but just in case you were NEVER previously advised, IRON YOUR CLOTHES!   I want my outfit to ALWAYS convey I'm the BOSS.  I keep this in the back of my mind everytime I get dressed.  Get it in your mind what you want to say...

What Do You See??

Do you ever take the time to wonder what type of person you are, or how others perceive you and your actions?  In other words, is what it is you want the world to see in you really being seen?  As creatures of free will, we have the ability to create perception of ourselves.  The question is have we done so in a capacity that matters?  Are we giving off the right stuff?  Have we created our best?!  Contemplate and Ponder these questions as you go about your everyday life and see how quickly you start noticing things you never intended to reveal!

Our Daily Bread

This has been a piece of literature that I can't even recall being introduced to.  For as long as I can remember reading the Bible, I can remember it being around.  Once I became an adult, I realized just how important these little books were.  Sometimes in life, we tend to get so caught up in the things around us, that we forget that life here is short, fleeting, and preparation for what comes next.  It can also become so cruel and difficult that we loose our way.  Our Daily Bread is my way of taking a step back each day and remembering that I am more than a conquerer.  Life is meant to be lived and enjoyed with the perspective that your latter will be greater.  I also like that it is simply written, easy to understand, brief, and directly corresponds with the Bible.  It always has a way of being just what I need at that moment in time.  Our Daily Bread is available absolutely free of charge via their website⭐⭐,  The Daily Bible app, fr...

Can Somebody Tell Me Why...

IDK what the F is going on season 3 of Teen Wolf?!!  I am so lost, and where the heck is Jackson?!!  In Paris doing what?  Who are these folks in the Alpha pack, and who is it they want, Scott or Derek?  Does Derek still have a pack?  So Scott is an Alpha?  Doesn't being an Alpha constitute a pack to be the leader of?!  I'm all confused!  It's about to be episode #4, and I simply have no idea how the show is going to develop, and what is up with Llydia?  I have soo many questions!  One thing remains true, Styles is still my favorite character!  I do miss the buzz cut tho. "Damn Yae, Kim K got you looking Crae Crae everyday day!"  Thank you Charlamagne! It's the question the whole world is asking right now, Why is Kimye's new baby named North West (no middle name!).  I don't like to judge people for the choices they make, I just want an explanation.  I need to understand why there is an African American child running a...
