Hump Day Poll: Your Childhood Go To's
Candy Edition! I was thinking about my Mom's 50th birthday party. It was a wonderful memory because I worked really hard on it and planned it for 9 months to make it great for her. Because she didn't have a 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I was going to go all out for her 50th. I had family, friends, people from high school, co-workers (ones I knew she liked! 😁) and I loved seeing her face when she would see people she hadn't seen in a long time. One of the biggest hits that people talked about for years after were the retro candy baskets on every table. I bought ones that I knew were her favorites as well as looking at what were popular at the time. People lost their minds and were squealing like kids when they saw their favorites. I got all of the candy through Candy Favorites website and it's always so fun to look through. I was perusing the site, I was thinking of what stuff I'd want in the baskets on my table for a party like Mom's: Cher...
It was nice to get out and walk and it was a good bit of exercise too. I was just plain sluggish after it though. Feel like I still need sleep.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice, too bad my legs just can't seem to handle any exercise these days no matter how low impact. I'm going to have to go back to rolling and arch massages 3x day. I need sleep too.
DeleteI graded some papers and watched a little Netflix. I have the same trouble with sunscreen. I have one that's better than others I've tried, Neutrogena clear face, but it's still not truly sweat proof. I'll be interested to see suggestions from your other readers.
ReplyDeleteYeah me too. I would love something that would stay put and not sweat my makeup off but not have so many chemicals that make it stay in place that I'm afraid to actually use it.
DeleteI do not know of any good sweat-proof sunscreen, and boy do I sure need it. I sweat all the time and I have since I was a kid, no matter what my weight was. I'm just naturally warmer than most females and I'm almost never cold when others are shivering. My head is drenched more times than not. Going through peri-menopause isn't helping either I'm sure. Last night it was my ABC shows after an 11 hour day at work. I was just toast mentally, so it was nice to just veg out for 2 hours before heading off to bed. Tonight I'm making breakfast for dinner and will be trying to keep one of my dogs from shaking out of his fur from fear of the lightning and thunder. He's just a wreck and has been wide awake since last night!
ReplyDeleteMy research has shown many say Blue Lizard is a good sunscreen that supposedly doesn't sweat off. I may have to try it because this Kiss My Face crap is, well, not good. I'm itching everywhere it was yesterday so that's a thumbs down for me.
DeleteI had mahimahi yesterday, too!
ReplyDeleteAnd oh, the sunscreen. It either drips into my eyes and burns the hell out of them, or it makes me look really greasy like I have oily skin and haven't showered for days, or it just doesn't work, and I still burn. I've yet to find a good sunscreen! ;)
I love mahi! It's how I got the Mr to eat fish. It's so meaty, he mistook it for chicken! HA!
DeleteYep, it does the same to me too. It's ridiculous and when on vacation we're always in warm climates so I have to wear it but then look like I just ran a marathon walking store to store. ERG!!
