Fail.

Hm. Apparently I could be a ripe candidate for Failblog, seeing as how I cannot even get past 2 posts. Wow.

Epic.

Anyways...It has been a busy year thus far. Work, kids. Work, Kids. Kids. Work. Exercise. Run around like a chicken missing that vital cranial attachment. So on and so forth.

Ya know. Normal run of the mill stuff.

So I recently came across this makeup artist that I lurve. Her name is Kandee Johnson. Click on her name there, and you'll be transported to a far cooler, way more fun, and drastically more cheerful blog than mine.

But ... Kandee..she's really inspired me. Without knowing her true story, which I"ll most likely never know (I try to avoid that damn rumor mill)...All I know is that she's had a rough go. I've heard it said she has three kids. Maybe she's even said it on a blog or vlog somewhere. But I've yet to see it. Either way, she has inspired me. I actually put my face on almost every single day now. And I do my hair. ohhai...wot? yup. mhm. me. Taking time. For me.

.:legasp:.

I feel happier (most days), far more confidant then I ever have in my life, and I'm inspired. Yes. Inspired. As I said just a few sentences ago, she's had a rough go, and yet...she's living. She's not curled up into a ball, crying, wishing everything bad would just go away.

She's living. Shopping. Laughing. Loving. Having fun. wearing FUN clothes, and doing FUN stuff. I know her life is not all glamorous. I'm not completely delusional. But...she has fun. She's living her dream (so far as I can tell). and she is HAPPY. She seems to be the sweetest, most caring person.

And ... reading her blogs. Watching her videos on Youtube..it's all been so eye opening for me. She hasn't said anything specifically that's created this change. One that has, most likely, been a long time coming. But she has definitely helped push it along. Without even knowing it. yeah, I could leave a comment about it on her blog, or her FB...but she gets so many. I truly doubt she would even see the affect that she has had in my life.

I wish her .... a hundred fold...the help that she has given to me. And so many other women in this world. She really has no clue how much she is doing in this minuscule little planet, in the grand scheme of things.

Kudos, Kandee. Job well done. :)

And you look great doing it.
