NEW BLOG

I am sorry it's taken me all this time to do this! But because i broke my phone and ended up on a Iphone i have had to move my blog to Wordpress! Ugh i loved this one and its my longest running one ever!!! But i did it! So here is the link for everyone to come look see and yes please FOLLOW me there! <3 to all my follower's! :)

NEW WORDPRESSS BLOG: That's 1 Hot Mess Blog

I am trying to figure out how to link them up! Not sure how yet but it's a work in progress! It's very hard to run 2 blogs together specially if one is about my love of makeup and nail polish & etc... and the other is just life in general! So definitely check it out! :)

A Monday Blog Post!

Update on this Lovely, Cold Monday! :) Gonna give you some monday ramblings! Hang on and don't quit halfway through it! 

I just want to give everyone a few updates on some stuff i am working on. I have been doing a mad amount of stuff lately. My kids keep me busy like always so most times when i am doing a blog post for everyone i am on my phone doing it. So most times i need to get myself on here and fix it. Then i take whatever photos i placed in my blog and organize them. So it takes some time to get just one post done! I don't know how these people do them daily. Shit sometimes i change my mind 2 days later and then edit them, Most times i let people know when i update my blog. 

I don't talk about my kids much or the struggles with them. Wait i don't believe i have ever said anything. lol but here it goes. I am gonna fill everyone in on some things that i rarely share with people that i don't know personally. People judge other's and i don't need people judging me for my children and for things that are beyond my own control. 

I have an 11 yr old son named Carl who has Global Developmental Delay (GDD), Smith Magenis Syndrome (SMS), PDD-NOS & Intellectual Disability. He is a severely special needs child which requires constant (24 hr/7 days a week) watching! Yes that means someone has to be right there with him at all times. He is an 11 yr old who has a brain of a 2 yr old. Yes it's challenging but he is the best kid you could ever ask for. His needs are there and are always #1. I currently have a facebook page for Carl. Called Carl's Journey which you can click ---> Here <--- to check it out! Give it a like, share it. Carl will appreciate it! :-)

I also have a 6yr old daughter named Lillee who apparently thinks she is a teenager and has goals! lol Yes she has goals in life. Amazing when you don't limit your children in life. She wants to be a makeup artist and a rock star! lol She is an ambitious one! She is in Kindergarten and has tested in the Superior range already. She is a smart one that wants a YouTube channel of her own! She is too young (even though there is already 6yr olds doing the same thing she wants to do) but still in my eyes yes way too damn young.

So on top of all the kids got going on i have stuff for myself & then i keep up with the husbands stuff. Ugh ya a wife & mom's work is really never done. haha but i do take some time out for myself to give me a sanity break when needed. I love the help i get for Carl cause it gives me time to settle and put my attention to Lillee. Btw having 2 kids (one severely special needs) alone is a task in itself people! It gives me the chance to do my nail's and show them to the world via this blog. Somedays i wonder if people really do read these. I know some do cause we discuss them through message. I get no comment's and i wouldn't really know if people even come here if it wasn't for this counter on my blog. Do i think it's correct sometimes? Hell NO!! I think it likes to fuck with me honestly. So as my time doing all this just to help me keep my head straight actually does not come as often as i would like. This is just for fun & i am not out for a buck over my pictures or opinion. If you like it hey cool come back and check it out again. If not it's no skin off my ass unless your an asshole about it. I don't care about opinions unless i need/want to. 

If i haven't scared you off yet here is some more stuff! :-)

I am a consultant with Jewelscent. I have been working my tail off to get my own personal goals with Jewelscent achieved. I don't know what i have to do to get people to at least test it out! Buy one damn candle. If you don't like it then hey don't buy it again! IF you love them buy more and host a party to get FREE PRODUCTS... Ya i said FREEEEE!!!! Ya got that? So why do people not want to host a party! It's like hey i love this i am hosting a party come see what is happening and decide if you want to try this your self! You could get so many more people to see what kind of awesome product this is! It's worth it in the end all cause of the jewelry inside! What if you got a token on your very first candle? Did you know that means you already made 3xs back what you paid for that candle? Ya people think about it? Take a damn chance! I am not asking you to spend your retirement. 

If you would like to check it out head on over to:

Ahhh ok it's time for me to return from blogland and go do some wifely duties! It never stops! lol Hope your Monday is Fabulous & Continue to stay fabulous!!

A girl who has a simple request....

I don't know how to start this off. So here it goes!!
My friend Jess asked me to share her go fund me page that is for her daughter. Aiyanna.
Aiyanna has one simple request for her father Brandon!!

SHE WANTS HER DAD TO HAVE A HEADSTONE.....

So heres the thing. He died of a heroin overdose. From what they understand he was drugged. The guy he was in the cell with made a batch of hooch and put heroin in it. Brandon has never ever done heroin in his life so they truly dont believe he drank it knowing that was in there. And the police are making it out like he brought the drugs into the jail. Hes been in jail since 2009 how the hell did he get it? Lol. Makes no sense. His mom has a lawyer and everything trying to get the truth. Originally they were going to charge the cell mate with drug induced homicide but decided not to last minute. And they truly think that's why nobody wants to help. People are looking at it like why help a heroin addict? Or thats how they feel they look at.

Aiyanna gets upset going there every week and seeing just dirt laying there. When all the other graves have these nice headstones with the peoples names. She wants that for her daddy as well. Funeral cost his mom $8000 which shes still paying off and cant afford to put up anymore money.

The news story about Brandon!

So the headstone is gonna got about 1,200. The cemetery told his mom the cheapest was $800 plus cost to dig and place it so about $1200. But they found a site that has them for about $350. But right now they cant even afford that.
