Hey Everyone well.. I managed to churn out those 3 reviews this evening ..lookie there! My main goal was 3 by the 1st sooo.. GO ME!! These were the first reviews since CHRISTMAS can you freaking believe that? They didn't take too horribly long to get done, especially when you consider I had been finishing up the first one and started to work on the second one and went throwing up again! OMG I do not know what the heck is making me so stinkin' nauseous but it can go the heck on. Though, as I have said before I am sure it has to do with heat and hormones and who knows what else! I hadn't really ate dinner quite at that time even though it was late- David had ran to publix to get me some tea.. anyways, i hadn't ate because it was so hot but I had tried my pepper steak when I first made it. Lets just say after seeing it again I couldn't eat it. David got me a plain potato from Wendys and a plain salad (which i'm gonna throw some onions, croutons and such in and have for lunch … [Read more...]

Review: ColorProof Crazy Smooth Hair Products #review #sponsored #ad #colorproof #crazysmooth
I have written about my hair a TON over the years on my blog- whether it relates to reviews of hair goodies or just in a random post here and there. In case you don't know- I have naturally curly hair that I curse into being straight at every turn! My mom also happens to be a hair stylist- but when I was younger she did some really hideous stuff with my hair (I am sure most people can say this , but my mom took the cake! She still tries to do some funky stuff to it, but now that I am older I know what I want and the funkiest thing I am going to do probably involves hair color ( I have done some pink streaks in the past!) I also tend to go a little darker or brighter on regular colors than what my mom likes too :) But in general i'm sticking with the same ole same ole I have tried a TON of hair products over the years, and I am always looking for new lines to try! I am a fan of not only the common stuff you can buy on the shelf at the drug store or whatever to the more professional … [Read more...]
Review: Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty Cosmetics #review #sponsored #christiebrinkley
If you have read my blog at any point in time, for any length of time - or even if you are just passing through- I am sure you probably get a vibe from me that I am a full on girly-girl type of girl! I can remember always being this way when I was a little girl, even though I can also remember playing with my tonka dump truck (it was metal) but I can also remember my pretend make up sets and even those lip glosses from avon back in the day called kool kisses or something like that. I even wanted my hair in curlers - and I have naturally curly hair :) So when something girly-girl like hair goodies or make up come up for me to be able to review , it doesn't take very much arm pulling for me to be like sure send them right over! I recently got lucky and got in touch with Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty Cosmetics and I was really excited when they sent over a package of goodies for me to feature here on the blog! I was lucky enough to receive 6 different … [Read more...]
Review: RescueHer Kit #review #sponsored #rescueher
I haven't reviewed since Christmas Ya'll! Can you believe it? I was so wore out after doing the first part of my gift guide, all the sponsored myrtle beach posts, my mattress review and then the gift guide- that all happened in about a 3 month or so span so I guess a rest was appropriate! I just didn't plan to take so long to get back into things- but here I am and I hope I can keep up the spirit :) Sometimes I get something that is seemingly so simple that just really rocks my world, and that is the case with this review! I was lucky enough to find out about RescueHer and then when they offered to send me one I was beyond excited- even though due to our address situation I had it sent to my moms since it traveled via USPS but that wasn't a big deal- I just had to wait until my mom was coming over to get it -which I got lucky it came early one morning and she was coming over anyways :) The Rescueher kit is this super amazing concept - A kit with … [Read more...]
I’ll whine until Fall at this rate
Hey Everyone OH MY GOD THE HEAT IS HERE FOR REAL YA'LL!! IT is MUGGY and HOT and EW :( *cries* I swear every year that I dont remember it being this hot in the summer when I was a child- and I used to play outside when I was a child- in the summer! I think it is because I was either used to it, or maybe it is because I didn't spend a lot of my summer here in n.c but in the hills of VA! Between the muggy heat and the crap rain.. it isn't any wonder I am already like screw this crap! I wanted to get out and go tanning this evening but it is like bathwater outside so with my asthma I am not thinking that this would be the best idea! I am going to have to see if David might want to start doing the tanning thing more late in the evening ( they are open till 10 for god sakes) he's just usually wanting to get it done when he gets home which is cool because by the time he eats and showers and relaxes a bit he wants to go to bed and I understand that for sure- he doesn't want to go … [Read more...]
Tuesday 10- Summer Goals (blog & general)
Here are the 10 things I am hoping to implement here on the blog /do in general this summer start doing book posts! I don't know if you saw my announcement but I am open to tours, blitzes, cover reveals, etc I am not so much for reviews , unless it is a select few authors but -if you are interested in any of these things feel free to check out my goodreads for more on the books i've been reading and email nichole@autumn-rain.net for more information! I am hoping to post a feature (my first ) This week if all goes well! READ MYSELF INSANE :) I've read 25 books in the last month- with a lot of days reading 3 books (around 1000 pages) a day- and a lot of days I didn't even read. Me and Kindle Unlimited are going to be getting quite chummy! Finish up ALL outstanding reviews. There are 5. I would LOVE to essentially have 3-4 of them done by This Friday June 01 but.. I'm not sure if that will happen or not. My end game goal is by Mid June so we'll see! IN my mind these are the … [Read more...]
