Looking forward to…   Cooking some salmon before work Friday.  I already meal-prepped some ravioli.  I work all weekend and with this heat, it should be wild.  

Listening to... One of my favorite podcasts on Patreon "Caught in my Web with Jodene Weber" She's a former FBI agent who covers true crime. If you're following the Idaho murders she is a must listen. 

Reading…  I'm just starting Dreamland by Nicholas Sparks. 

Watching…  Catching up on Law & Order SVU, 911 and impatiently waiting for the next episodes of "The Summer I turned pretty" on Amazon Prime and "The Lincoln Lawyer" on Netflix 

Wearing…  Will be trying out the new blush pallet from Wet and Wild I just bought and the liner 90's nude from Rimmel in an attempt to create the perfect nude lip. 

Coffee Adventures

Drinking... Starbucks Iced Green Tea.  Summer is here and nothing is better on a hot day than an Iced Green Tea.

Needing... more sleep.  Major insomnia going on here.  Any tips on how to get past it.

Hoping... That this weekends open house is successful and we are finally able to sell our house.  I want to move to the beach so bad.

Wearing... CoverGirl Full Lash Bloom Mascara.  I love this mascara.  I am a die hard lover of maybellines great lash mascara but this ranks right up there as far as I am concerned.  The brush if wonderful and makes your lashes look so full.

Watching... The new season of Orange is the new black. This show never disappoints and always leaves me shocked and begging for more.  I also have started watching the show Tyrant.  Its a story about a guy, Barry,  who's father is a evil dictator in a middle eastern country. Barry decides to go back home with his american wife and kids for his nephews wedding and gets sucked back into all of the craziness in his homeland.  

Loving... Decorating my planner.  I have succumbed to the planer obsession.  .

Listening to... #1 to Infinity by Mariah Carey.  All of her number one hits and a new song on one CD.  I am a huge Mariah fan and was so excited to see this CD in the store.

Wearing... NYX Butter Balm.  I have been meaning to try these for so long and I finally bought a few.  I love them.  They are actually butter soft and the color is great.

Enjoying... the sun and the awesome weather here in Colorado.  Although I can do without the tornadoes.

Dreading... packing and cleaning. I'm getting ready to move to Wilmington, North Carolina and can't wait to get everything unpacked and put away.  If you have any tips on where to go in Wilmington please share.

Watching... The Island on NBC. I love this show.  A group of guys are dropped on a deserted island with no fire or food for a month to see if they survive.

Looking forward to… moving.  All of the packing and unpacking is a real pain.  But I know the move to Wilmington, North Carolina will be worth it. 

Reading…  Still working on Crossfire by James Patterson.  I love this series and it never lets me down. 

Watching…  The Island with Bear Gryllis. It’s a reality show wear the producers drop a dozen or so men on a deserted island with no food or shelter. They’re told that they will be back to get them in a few weeks.  Chaos and drama starts right away. 

Wearing… shorts!!!  Finally the warm weather is here.

Looking Forward to… having a yard sale this weekend.  I can’t wait to get rid of all this clutter from around the house.  A lot of what I am selling if the result of a massive closet clean out.  Cleaning out the closet is a huge task but a necessary one at least once a year. 

Planning… My next vacay!! I love a road trip.  I try to plan one every year.  This year my mom and I are hitting the south.  Our first stop is Houston to see the family and then on the New Orleans.  From there we will hit Panama Beach Florida and then on to North Carolina.  After visiting the family in North Carolina we will head back home to Colorado with a stop in Memphis to see Graceland.  I hope Graceland is as cheesy as I am expecting. 

Reading…  I started on the book Crossfire by James Patterson.  It is the next book in the Alex Cross series.  I love this series and I am close to being caught up.  I highly recommend this series if you love good murder mysteries.  I have to say the movies made from these books have been very disappointing. 

Can’t Wait For… The Entourage movie.  I loved the TV show and am so glad they made a movie with these characters. 

Loving… All of the new makeup I recently purchased.  Avon has lip liners on sale right now so I got four of those.  I also purchased from Avon a couple of the Dew Kiss lip balms and two lipsticks in the colors of mauve ice and totally twig.  The Dew Kiss lip balms are a must have.  Additionally I picked up a couple of eye shadows.  The first one is from Maybelline in silken taupe and the second one is the cover girl quad shadow in pure romance. 

Watching… Season finales!! All of my favorite shows are ending for the season.  I don’t know how I’ll get through the summer without The Vampire Diaries, Reign or Scandal. 

Grieving… The loss of the Mindy Project.

Reading... The Maze Runner by James Dashner.  The movie is coming out really soon and I can't wait to see it.  The book was a little slow to start but I am now engrossed with it and i don't want to put it down.  I'm about half way through with it and hope to finish it soon.  I need to start reading faster since I am so far behind in my Goodreads challenge.  

Watching... Botched on E! channel.  This reality show stars Dr Dubrow from the Real Housewives of Orange County as he and his partners fix bad plastic surgery.  Each episode has crazier stories than the episode before it.  

Listening... Lie under you by Keke Wyatt is a beautiful song.  If you watch R&B Divas Atlanta than you know Keke and this song.  If you don't watch than you should and you should download this song.  This is a great wedding song.  Also I have been listening to Jhene Aiko.  She blends R&B and hip hop in a real smooth way.  

Dreading...  All of the housework I need to do that I have been putting off.
