The Story Before the Bathroom Reveal
Y'all, it has been a ride. Why are all of our renos involving trades always held up? Now I could understand the kitchen reno which began March 16, 2020 which is the week all hell broke loose. The kitchen wasn't finished until July that year and it really had nothing to do with the pandemic. There were quality control issues with two doors and if you think I was settling for lint sealed under clear coat and the same two holes caused by an industrial stapler on three remakes of a door, you're nuts. We actually redid our bathroom in 2022. Do you remember? Probably not because I hated it so much I never did a reveal! The deep ocean blue was a pain in my ample ass and for almost three years because it never stopped running. We had white chair railing and water from drying our hands or showers constantly dripped blue and would pool on top of the white railing sending me into fits on the daily. Because we'd gone through three different blue...
Love my lotions, a bit more of a cream girl though. I purged mine down to a few faves. My side goal is use up. I want a minimalist pantry and products. I'm trying to get used to the cupboard and pantry looking sparse, but it keeps me from wasting.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good goal! I need to go through my pantry and clean/purge at some point. I don't discriminate creams...6 tubs! š (Two are the discontinued ones)
DeleteWe do have a lot of lotions and I definitely need to use some this time of year too.
ReplyDeleteYou'd better get to pumping some of that eucerin! You don't want old man skin! š
DeleteOk, for some reason your lotion obsession just made me smile! I also have a lotion that I refuse to use....only for special occaisions, because they discontinued it (I have about 3bottles left though!) As for side goals...I have lots of non health related side goals...financial goals for my savings and extra payments on my mortgage are my big ones. I have purging goals....as in purging the unncessary items from my house!!! Stuff like that!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad my lotion hoarding brought a smile to you! Those are good goals! We paid and extra mortgage pmt every year and rounded up by $25 for the life of our mortgage (and told them to apply the extras to interest). Knocked 7 years off for us. Totally worth it!
DeleteI am terrible about using any kind of lotion or cream. Always have been. Aside from some hand cream before bed, or the occasional lotion or potion to my face, I rarely use anything, but have a closet full of the stuff. Lip balm is the only thing I'm consistent with.
ReplyDeleteAt least your lips are velvety smooth even if you can sand chairs with your elbows! Bwaahahaha!
