Happy Tuesday!
I had an awesome 4th of July weekend!
Friday, I went with my husband and parents to Roger’s Market. It was my first time
there, and it was the best. There were so many vendors there and so many
customers! We were there mostly all day and didn’t even see everything.
At Roger’s, there was a guy playing an accordion! I wish I had gotten his
name. Missed connections, anyone? I want to know more about him. Does he play
professionally? Does he have a band? He was kick ass on the accordion!
After Roger’s, we came home for about 5 minutes to switch cars and then went
to the Dustin Lynch concert at Conneaut
Lake Park. My husband and I just went. Obviously, my parents weren’t lustin’
for Dustin! There were other bands there as well, which made the time go by
really fast. The other bands were Rick Ramsey, Mayflower Hill, and Country Redford. They were
all so great. Dustin’s set was so cool because he played a lot of covers. My
favorites were the Garth Brooks covers. I’m such a huge fan of Garth and
obviously Dustin is too. I look forward to going to future concerts at Conneaut
Lake Park.
Saturday was relaxing. We just mowed the yard and relaxed most of the day.
Sunday, it was back to work for me, and after that, my family and I baled
hay. That’s always a fun time! We don’t put up a lot of hay so it’s not really
overwhelming.
I would say that it was a great Independence Day weekend!

Friday Five | Things On My Bucket List
Here are a few things hanging out on my bucket list:
1. Dueling Pianos | I really want to see a dueling pianos show. I don't care how professional it is, either. Just two pianos, playing it out.
2. Ghost Ride | A road trip where I visit haunted & abandoned places throughout the US. I really want to see some abandoned theme parks. Which kind of goes with...
3. See A Ghost | I'm kind of obsessed with the paranormal & really want to see a ghost. Well, maybe. I'm kind of scared to see a full body apparition, but I want to definitely experience something unexplained.
4. Fix Up A House | I loved old houses. They're my jam. I want to buy & renovate an old house. It really doesn't even have to be old, just in need of some serious repair. My husband actually did this for many years working for a contractor, & it's awesome to see the transformations.
5. Dye My Hair Black | I was actually born with black hair & I really want to dye it black. I'm just so scared to do it! I'm the mayor of Pale City, so I'm afraid I'll look scary, but I still want to do it! I would have to do it professionally to avoid looking like a cheetah & how would I even get it back to my normal shade?

Shaving #InASnap with Gillette Venus Snap
Summer is finally here which means my shaved legs are on full display because I live in shorts when the weather gets hot.
The problem I always run into is everything looks shaved in the house & then the moment I step outside, I find a ton of spots that I missed. Enter, Gillette® Venus® Snap with Embrace:
This razor is so easy to take along for those spontaneous shaving sessions, whether it's just a few hairs or I need a full on shave fast. It even comes with its own case. To use, just add some water and shave. That's it. When I'm done, I just dry it off & put it back in its case, ready for the next time I need it. I loved how it was sharp enough to get the job done, yet gentle enough not to cut my legs to shreds.
& it looks cool in the pool! :)
I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. All opinions are my own.

Friday Five | Things That Make Me Irrational
Happy Friday!
I'm usually a fairly calm person. It normally takes a lot to shake me up. There are a few things that make me crazy and irrational, though, & here they are:
1. The Self Checkout: I try to skip over as much interaction with that thing as possible. I skip the language & start scanning my things. Then, when I'm done, I just start shoving my money in to skip over all that payment talk too. There are only so many shortcuts I can do, though, & before I know it, that thing is screaming at me. I know that I need to take my items & my money, just give me a minute, ok?
2. Heated Seats: Probably more of a #firstworldproblem than anything else, but heated seats in a car make me irrational. I know that the settings on the seat are a timer & not the heat level, but that doesn't stop me from cranking that stuff all the way up all the time. I have to say that having the heated seats on all the time is an incredibly terrible idea. I once burned myself on a long road trip because I couldn't let the heat seat go.
3. Hair Dye: This isn't really a problem for me anymore since I haven't dyed my hair in about 2 years, but when I used to dye my hair, it made me irrational. I know that hair grows from the roots, but that didn't stop me from picking the darkest hair color possible so I wouldn't have any roots. The funny thing was, when I used to dye my hair, by the end of the month, my hair would just turn back to a shade that was sort of close to my natural color anyway, so I didn't really need to pick a darker shade.
4. Vending Machines: I’m the crazy lady hitting my soda selection like 456,054,096,590 times before the pop actually dispenses. Yes, I realize that it only takes one time, but I'm still over there pressing & pressing that button.
5. Elevators: Pretty much the same thing as vending machines. I realize it takes one time, but I'm over there pressing the 'down' button. I also find myself giving it a courtesy press for every new person that comes up.
