10 and 2

The time has come to turn over the keys to the oldest monster. She got her temps today and we went driving. She did really good. I little bit too much gas in the turns but she worked it out. I only flinched once. 2 more monsters to go and I will start breathing again.

L'Oreal Revitalift Double Eye Lift

Okay I bought this for my sagging droopy eyes. I am working midnights and my eyes are so tired all the time. Then I rub and it's probably too late but I need something to help them perk up a bit. L'Oreal Revitalift Double Eye Lift- I like it
Price- 13.87
Available at Walmart and other drug stores
Good-
-Smells good

-Once it dries it's soft not slimy or sticky
-Immediate action - yes or atleast over night ( I woke up and looked in the mirror and looked again and said to G "I think this shit worked") which I really didn't expect it to work so fast or at all.
-The monsters even said my eyes looked perked up and bright- D even asked what I did to them. That's mean it was a real improvement for him to notice.


Bad-I haven't found one yet.

Don't waste your money

This past week I researched some new items for my skin care army. I went into Ulta and then found I was being rushed out by the monsters wanting to go to a band bash so I grabbed a cool gel eye mask and ran. Later that night I ran to Wal-mart for a few things I had coupons for. I saw this eye makeup and remover and thought why not. I am not a big eye makeup remover fan but I have been wearing waterproof mascara and thought I need to get SOMETHING.. Here is my review: It's SOMETHING alright..this is how the label should read: Get the eye wet and smear all over eye and face.
Next step- take some good ole' soap and wash the crap off.

I guess I got what I paid for- now another trip back to Wal-mart to tell them thanks but no thanks. It says to compare to L'Oreal.. I might just compare it to see if there is a difference. Although in my trip I did get some other items that I really like. I will present them at a later date. Right now I'm gonna go fight with mascara. If you girls have any suggestions on a good one that works please let me know. ~Cathy

It's that time

It's race time again.
D is going to practice for a few months to get his bearings again before racing. The plan is they will start in the middle of summer. I have a feeling by the middle of April the race will be on. For those of you that weren't around last fall, D wrecked back in October and received a nasty concussion and some road burn. Needless to say his race year was over and he doesn't remember a thing about the wreck.. That could be a good thing or bad. I guess good for him cause he's not afraid to go back out there and try it again.

Last week I posted this picture of D in his new race gear. I haven't got any good pics of it but he jumped in the bathroom, tried it on and snapped a pic. When he wrecked he broke his helmet and tore his gear. He was wearing boots that had some bad history soooooo. For Christmas he got a new Thor (I think it is Thor)helmet. I would have to run look but I'm not.. then he got new Alpine Star boots..new ones to to make his own history. With a gift certificate he got new Von Zipper goggles and he had his Leatt brace from the year before. I will say it again- I do truly believe that his Leatt brace saved his neck and back. I saw the wreck/flip/drop and I said to my self then.. It did it's job, it did what it was supposed to.. as I was running, screaming and about to hyperventilate. So now we are getting the rest of his things together. He just got his Thor black with white polka dotted gear. It does look a little silly but it's that kind that Chad Reed-Pro wears and it is different. I am proud of him for being able to stand out. We still need to order THOR gloves and a chest protector. I think if he would have had the chest protector on he wouldn't have had the road burn. Maybe not but he's wearing one now. The weather is to be nice this weekend and the plan went from visiting a friend that just got a new bike to taking all the boys to the track and ride. I guess I better get some sandwiches packed.
