In the Land of the Sickies, without my Italian Creme...

This has been one SICK weekend for the Groovy household. Both boys have had around the clock fevers (up to 104). I have been on nurse duty all weekend... this happens when your hubbie is in the restaurant business and is off during the week.

I am one cranky mommy this morning. I stayed home yesterday from work and took 1/2 day today. I may actually be looking forward to going in today... Did I just say that? I REALLY need some rest.

Well to add to my crankiness... my new favorite creamer has run out...

Coffee-mate Italian Sweet Cream

I actually found a review of it on Val's Views. I love this stuff. I add skim milk to my coffee and a drop of this.... YUMMY! I prefer this over the Splenda I used to put in... this tastes so much better! You have to try this, there's even a coupon for $1 off on the Coffee-mate website.

Well, I guess I will be running to Stop and Shop after work....

Now, I just have to hold it together for a few more hours until Papa gets here.

My hubby drinks coffee (I don't) and loves this creamer. I'll have to tell him about the new flavor!

"Hers-Day" Review and Giveaway!

My little peanut has be screaming since the minute she woke up. Poor baby is teething and miserable! I totally get it, but Mommy needs a break. Today I need to take a few minutes for myself, cuz it's gonna be a LOONG day. So as the "princess" sleeps, I am going to take a scream-free shower. This is what I use to spoil myself a little. I love this stuff! It has a mild and fresh scent and leaves my skin silky smooth. It lathers up nicely and is easy to shave with. I have used this since high school. Sometimes the smell helps me forget for a few minutes that I am a 30-something with kids (that is until someone knocks at the door to tell on his brother!). For my second giveaway, I would like share Neutrogena Rain Bath with one of my readers. Let's pretend we are back in high school together! :) &amp;lt;a href="http://rafl.es/enable-js"&amp;gt;You need javascript enabled to see this giveaway&amp;lt;/a&amp...

Review and Giveaway- Sally Hansen Salon Effects

Let's just get this clear. I have NO talent when it comes to anything cosmetic. I can't apply eyeshadow, I look stupid in lipstick, and cannot paint my nails without smudging. So you can believe how excited I was when I found Sally Hansen Salon Effects in my local drugstore. The Salon Effects are essentially stickers, although SH calls then "polish strips". They vary in color, and designs. Some are basic and others are WILD. I have tried Wild Child (a zebra-like print) and It Girl (solid pinkish color). For this review, I applied Bling It On to my toes. You know I must really love you guys to post pictures of my feet! Each box of Salon Effects comes with 16 Nail Polish Strips (in case you make a mistake), a cuticle stick, and a double sided nail file and buffer. 1. I prepped my toes by filing, shaping, and wiping them with nail polish remover . 2. I took off the clear protective cover and pulled the polish ...

Things that change once you have kids

1. Sleep- the amount you can survive without and how much you miss it. 2. Walks- once a relaxing past time, now is focused on getting everyone around the block without getting hit by a car or any other injuries. 3. Carnivals- I used to LOVE going to our town's festival during the summer. But I swear I will NEVER let my kid go on that Zipper ride. Too much upside down and WAY too creaky (did I mention that it was my Favorite growing up?) 4. Airplane rides- they just get me nervous. Next time we fly I am taking a Valium. What has changed for you since having the kids? Sorry this is not my typical Tipsy Tuesday post. If you must know, I was drinking Jack Daniels and Coke Zero this weekend. It seemed like a good "hurricane" cocktail. :)
