You know that mom that puts you to shame. She has everything labeled from back backs to lunch kits and has her schedule on the fridge. If she's really good she has everything monogrammed. Ahhhhh, that mom that sends her child to Mother's Day Out with an organic, gluten free lunch. To that mother, I love you for the way God created you but I really love you for making me think I need to step up my game. I will never compare to you because God did not create me that way. However, I will continue to fake it til I make it. In other words I try and make it look like I'm that mom but I totally am not. Organization has always been something I want but it doesn't come easy. I am always looking for the next little cubby, or drawer organizer or whatever I can come up with that will help me feel a little more functional. I really wish I was like the super moms, all labeled with the perfect spot and matching containers. One day I will get there, it's a slow process. ?. I will keep showing y'all what I come up with as I continue to fake it.... :)
I bought these hangers for my head rest in the car to hang my purse, diaper bag, gym bag, shopping bags, etc.... I like the idea of them but I'm probably going to get new ones because I am kind of picky and these are kind of cheapy looking to me. So instead of the ones I bought I am going to link the ones I am going to buy which are actually cheaper. The ones in the above picture were $9.99 the ones below that I want are only $7.50 ??.

Storage Box for Blankets- This is also super cute and helps me look a little more organized with updating some decor. This is under $15.

As a hair stylist, I have seen so many clients and friends who have struggled with gray hair. For some of them it started in their early 20's, so you are not alone. The main thing they all want is some easy solution to keep them out of the salon once a month having to keep it covered. The person struggling with gray hair is going to their stylist much more often than just the typical blonde getting hilights. It's pricey and time consuming. When I saw this I had to be a part of sharing and promoting this great idea. It's an airbrush machine that lets you cover gray in between seeing your stylist. Brilliant! The best part is this can be used for multi purposes. It can also be used for airbrush makeup or airbrushing your eyebrows with a stencil. ?♀️ Who would have thought? I do get credit when you go thru my links which I completely appreciate and I am transparent about because I want to be able to stay home with my beautiful Reagan as long as I can. I try and attach links that will help you save money or get a good deal as well. This link will include free shipping. However I only share thing I truly like or I am truly interested in. This product I have not bought yet. Yettttt is the keyword and I do plan on eventually purchasing one of these airbrush machines for makeup purposes. Temptu is a great product. I know from experience because it was used in a salon I was previously at for special event makeup. They sale different lines from personal to professional equipment.
The difference between an eyebrow tattoo and microblading? An eyebrow tattoo is a permanent procedure, which uses a machine to penetrate pigment deep into the skin. Microblading involves using a hand tool with nine or more tiny needles to create shallower cuts on the skin and then letting pigment seep in. Microblading lasts only one to three years depending on your skin’s pigment retention.
This seems to be the new craze amongst some of my friends and people I follow on social media. The friends that I know who have had it done all seem to love it. Something about it seems scary to me but intriguing. I guess I'm scared I would have a permanent surprised look or something. Also I have very light colored and thin eyebrows so I may look like a clown after. 😱 The alternative is it could look amazing. It's kind of pricey though. Our local spa charges around $550. So tell me to Microblade it not to microblade?
About 2 weeks ago I started this study. I have the book the book The Power of a Praying Parent and it's wonderful but I never bought the study guide version. I would like to go back and do the study a long with the book too. For now though I M super happy about this one for wives to pray for their husbands. This is kinda wild but I've always thought about getting this book but just never did. I was talking to Stacey (my husbands' ex-wife) one day and she told me she had recently started a study prayibg for her husband. I thought to myself...... "yessssss" I knew right then, I've seriously got to do this for Jason. I 100% believe in prayer and it's power. When we love someone, what better gift could we give them? The most meaningful gift of all would be this my friends. Thank you to Stacey for being my inspiration to start this study. I'm linking this above if you want to purchase the study. I suggest buying the study guide and the actual book of prayers. You guys I can't wait to get thru this study and watch God at work. I am going to go back and purchase the study guide for the parent version next.
Today only these comfy leggings are 50% off the $24.50. So $12.25 pretty great deal. Click on the Loft link above and go see what you find and use the code:MYSTERY at checkout ?Brandy On A Budget, only shares good stuff for good prices ?
Having stuff as yummy as this doesn't even feel hard to change my WOE (way of eating). Keto is perfect for my life style. If you haven't looked into it, you should.
Recipe: 2-8oz cream cheeses (room temperature) 2-eggs (room temperature) 1/2cup to 3/4 cup of granulated swerve (depending on how sweet you like it)or sweetner of choice 1 tsp of vanilla 1 zest of lemon 🍋 (not needed but preferred) 2 tbs of sourcream Mix cream cheese with mixer, add 1egg at a time, add sugar slowly, then put the rest of the ingredients and continue to mix for about 4 minutes. Pour into your greased pie dish and bake at 325 degrees for 50 minutes. That's it! . You have all got to try this. I'm in love with the new Banana Bright Eye Cream. I don't think I can stop using it now. It's meant to act as a base before your makeup. It helps with the appearance of dark circles, smooths,reduces fine lines and wrinkles and it also firms. All I know is my skin felt so good after using this. The unfortunate part for "Brandy on a Budget" me , is that it cost around $37. I think I paid $40 after tax. However I received a coupon ( give 15 and get 15). 😍. So I will share it with you guys and you can try it for cheaper and I get to get it for cheaper. Yayyyyy. I will add it to the "products I love" page. Hope y'all love it as much as I do. Just click on the picture of the product and the coupon should be attached with my code and you will save at checkout. Thanks!
I love my sweets but on keto you can't have sugar and carbs are minimal. So to keep my sweet tooth away I've been making "Keto Approved" Hot CoCoa. It's been perfect for these cold days. Recipe: -12oz of vanilla almond milk (30 cal) (heat in microwave for 2 minutes) -1tsp of grass-fed butter (or however much you need for your fat intake for the day) -2tsp of unsweetened 100% cocoa -Sprinkle of cinnamon -1tsp of your choice of artificial sweetener if you choose. -Blend together. (I use a handheld immersion blender) That's it! So simple. .Every morning that I've been able to stay home with this little baby bear, has been such a blessing. A gift that I will never forget. I will always cherish our time together. The big kids have grown up so fast. I wish I could get that time back, but I can't soooo it's just you and me kiddo. Well at least during the day. You may get sick of me but I will feed you, watch you play and snuggle you as much as I can. You never know how much longer we have these days together. I may return to work tomorrow but for now, I will count my blessings and be thankful for my coffee time and watching you play. I am thankful that I get clean my house today. When there are so many people trying to find the time to get heir laundry done. I am able to stay warm, clean my house, play with my little one and watch her grow. Thank you Lord for this blessing. Thank you God for a husband that makes this all possible and loves his family so much.
My friend Chelsea bought me a Keto Approved recipe book for the Instant Pot. Needless to say I was super happy. I opened it up looking for the easiest recipe I could find. I found this Cauliflower Rice Pudding. I love rice pudding normally, however this was a big fail for me. It looked pretty good but tasted and smelled like dirty feet. :( Good thing I only wasted 20 minutes of my life 😂
