I used them online. I ordered 2 of the feminine Urban Decay palettes on sale this week and 10 bottles of nail polish. I got a 1 oz purity sample with each nail polish and it cost me less than a dollar laugh out loud My UPS guys is going to hate me. I have 8 Sephora packages and 2 VS packages all scheduled for delivery on the same day, Wednesday!
oOoo nail polish. that was a great idea!

OHH! Excited to see! I'm happy that you finally found a ring setting you fell in love with!
I will pm you. I have been doing a LOT of research and I want to pass on the knowledge! There are quite a few sites that sell rings (and diamonds) that a lot of ppl vouch for. You can do some searching there, and send what you like to your dbf!

Ha, when my hubby is out of town or offshore I get SO much done.

Me and you aren't going to be on good terms the beginning of January. My friend (who has a husband who is a die hard Bama fan) has already started the trash talking. We beat you guys once, unless you found a kicker in the last month we're gonna do it again laugh out loud

I think a man is worse than a child when it comes to messes laugh out loud. I get a lot more done when he's out of town plus my house stays cleaner.

I'm ready for the game. Hopefully the kicker will just be kicking extra points Whee Stick Out Tongue!

Got my Naked2's today Whee

azn I hope some of the tips the girls have shared will help you. hug

CrazyCat I am getting some of the magnetic polishes with my Sephora GC's I think. I took off the shatter polish and tried it again after I used the thinner and had MUCH better results. Unfortunately it's still goopy on the top part of the brush so chunks kept coming down. But overall it looks better.

Lol - I agree with you about them being messy - but I have mine trained to help! He is a good puppy husband! When we get home from work (the same time) - he does dishes while I cook, and he ties up the trash and takes it out every morning on the way to work. He also makes the bed when he gets out of it in the morning Smilie

I have naked 2 jealousy - but I couldn't justify it as a purchase after buying a few other things and more makeup this month. I have new eyeshadow in the mail! I will probably return a murad cream I have to Sephora and keep the store credit until Naked 2 comes out.

I like the magnet polish - I have the purple and I sent my sis the silver. They look nice - almost holographic Smilie I may do it tonight. I ordered some regular polishes from Sephora - but I swear I have every color of purple that has ever been made!!

Whew, was just reading through the post.

Azn1x6flame I am glad your doctor actually ran tests. Sometimes when people aren't older the doctors blow off their issues without looking into it and it can be a really simple fix. I hope yours is!



I did end up getting my Sephora coupon but I can't decide what to buy because a lot of stuff is out of stock and some other things won't be deals when I pay shipping.


I finally got a VS order I placed on Thanksgiving and it had a $10 SRC in it, too bad it didn't come before the shipping code expired. Now I'm going to try waiting for another one.

MIne is still in training laugh out loud. I think his momma did everything for him including picking up his dirty clothes from the floor shake head. We're getting there slowly but surely. He does help when he's home at night. He'll help ds with his bath and help put him to bed.

Sephora updates their site on Wednesday - so maybe check back then? The UD Feminine Palette is a pretty good deal Smilie

That's good that he at least helps a little. It proves he has potential!!

Oh, and as far as laundry goes - I figured the best way to win that battle was to strategically place a laundry basket wherever he throws his clothes the most. It worked pretty well laugh out loud

I think I already have too many of those colors from the UD Feminie Palette. Frown I need some more matte shadows and most UD has shimmer or sparkle.

Without the knowledge from the girls here, I wouldn't have asked her for an EKG. She said that she never gives test to young people and I guess it was the first time someone my age requested an EKG.


Quote from longislandgirl :
I would suggest for you first of all do NOT worry about this situation itself hug
Second, I know you are much stressed already - put those darn GMAT prep books down for few days.
Third, when you resume with GMAT prep, just don't stress about doing the best with it. It is A LOT of stress. Just take it easy, the world will not end if you don't do MBA or if you do MBA from some other college than you desired. What is most important is YOU and YOUR health. you already have a job with decent pay and a nice BF- see the positive things in life and take a break from everything. Do things you enjoy. Cluttering can add up to stress but to some people organizing does not help with stress. You should do thing YOU like more. do everything Sheena suggested.

And lastly if you are interested do Meditation. It will 99% help with stress. If you want more info i can PM you with some informative videos or something else.
Thanks for the additional insight.

I wonder if my results would be mentioned to insurance? It's through my work, so I hope that it won't just increase for me!

I hope that it's just stress. I finally was able to calm down from work after being here for two hours, heart palpitations just happened a couple of times afterwards, but it just happened right now.

I actually put my GMAT books down this weekend while I cleaned. I will follow the advice of others and clean one portion at a time, otherwise, I will be stressed that I'm not making the dent in cleaning like I should. I think the new MGMAT Roadmap book helped with managing my stress and what to expect because I was freaking out that I wasn't studying quick enough, even though I didn't have a strategy, which is bad.

You're right - I need to see the positive things, sometimes it's so easy to get lost in negativity.

I just want my room to look like an Ikea room, a nice relaxing place, conducive to studying, I think it would help me study a lot better too!

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
I'm SO sorry your EKG had the results it did, but hopefully it puts you one step closer to an answer. Stress is a hard one to manage, and I went through a bit earlier this year that they kept diagnosing as Pleurisy. There are a few things that helped me, maybe they can help you:

Cutting negative people out of my life helped a lot and sitting back and finally being proud of myself for what I have accomplished in life instead of destroying myself. I am a workaholic who is very dedicated to her job and I see my work as a representation of my character. Once I realized this was a huge part of my stress, I HAD to ease up on myself. It's gradual, but it helps.

Lists. I always hated lists when I was a kid - but I make them now even just to clean my house. I used to get so overwhelmed with even simple tasks - decluttering and cleaning certainly help me feel more relaxed, and if i tackle it with a plan, it helps SO much. Plus, when I check the last thing off that list I truly feel as though I have accomplished something.

If you ever need to talk, feel free to PM me. I have no life right now and am a good listener! I wish you the best and you have my thoughts with you!
Thanks again for the Pink dogs offer, you were totally going out of the way for even offering!

Just a little background on me - not married (long distance DBF), mid 20's, want to go back to school for my MBA, I hate my job (stressful, bad environment, stupid bosses), I have a long drive to work, and I barely have any time at home. Phew! Listing all that gave me a couple of palpitations! I don't have any debt, got rid of negative people when I went to college.

I think I feel the same way as you - work is a representation of my character so I tend to care about things more at work when I really shouldn't. So I'm stressing more than I should. Everyone knows, this, the managers never take the blame and they just point the fingers at others. In Jan, it would be 4 years at this job, and 4 years of feeling this kind of pressure.

How do you ease up on that?

I love lists!!! I write one for work when I need to get things done, there are never less than 20 items to do! I feel like even the at home list, when it's done, I have more. I guess I need to have that feeling of a sense of accomplishment, instead of like, "OMG!!!! There's still so much to do!!!"

Thanks for your offer, I may take you up on it!

Quote from azn1x6flame :
Thanks Sheena! I'll try those techniques. I also wonder if it's because there isn't really "quiet time" for me. Even when there's no noise in my room, I have music playing or something running in the background (like a show). I wonder if that adds to the stress? Dontknow

I'm going to try a quick 30 minute hike with my dog on the weekends. I stopped that for some time, so I'll try to pick that up again.

I think maybe because I see things as a chore, I have less enjoyment, even when it should be joyful. My friend was saying that the way I shop - in and out really quick can be stressful too. So many things to change in my life, but I'm very excited to make some changes.
Sorry to hear about ur results! I will keep you in my prayers. I have heart problems in my family and had to go to a cardiologist a couple years back due to frequent heart palpitations. I had to quit caffeine and my palpitations decreased alot. Also, for heart palpitations I was given beta blockers. I still get palpitations but not as much as before. Most of my family are doctors so any little pain its good to go to the doctor. Better to be preventive. Smilie I would get a second opinion always. And always research doctors on their history in the medical field. Doctors that have written lots of research articles and have been given awards in their area are always recommended. Also, the older they are the more knowledge they have. Smilie Hope this helps. woot
