That Broken Laptop...

 
I miss this little blog...It is just so difficult to pry my other family members off our desktop these days. I have tried staying up after the kids, but I am sure many fellow parents of toddlers (and boys for that matter) can attest to the full body break down and coma we often go into at about 6pm...especially when your kids wake at dawn and don't nap at all during the day. And why do they get another burst of energy right around 6pm when all you want to do is pass out?


Thus, this blog yet again is neglected...I am saving my pennies to replace the laptop as soon as possible, even looking into getting an ipad instead. I would love advice....Do some of you use an ipad instead of a laptop? Life and it's often baffling dilemmas. To ipad or not to ipad!

I did open a little instagram shop last week via my ipod...I have such an abundance of clothing from the past years...I love to online shop, but in reality I am a stay at home mom usually in shorts and t-shirts, maybe lounge pants or pjs intermixed on "bad days". I love being girly, wearing a dress, make-up, some cute little sandals, but that isn't my reality everyday now and purging my closet seems the best bet for me at this time. We are moving to Oregon in 2 years, which seems so far away, but in reality 2 years passes quick...And at that time I will be saying goodbye to dresses and sandals all year, and instead looking for down jackets and long johns...pink ones of course!

I have made a few great instagram purchases myself recently, and thought it was such a fun way to thrift. Great deals via social media is always exciting for a lady who loves to shop, but has limited money...So, why not spread the joy if I can to others and add in a few of my Merdy Creations. If you have a second...check out my shop @shopwithmerdy on instagram.

For now, I am off to take a walk with my boys...And maybe watch a few you tube beauty tutorials. My current obsession: YOU TUBE. It is so easy for me to watch a few quick videos rather than try and catch up on my favorite shows lately. I swear I get to watching all these make-up, beauty videos and I try to convince myself that I am going to conquer the world of cosmetology! Funny confession though, I still struggle to put on eyeliner...didn't even know what primer was until a few months ago...Two of my favorite channels: Le Musings of Moi (Summer is too cute) and Glamour Wonderland (Shannon is too cute also)...I love that they like being girly, but are also into Natural and Organic products and health as much as possible...

Take care all! Happy Week ahead...the week of love.
Hey, here are those cool earrings I handpainted myself...available at my new instagram shop!
I should probably figure out how to download a shop app soon. For now, I improvise.
Butterflies in the spring...top for sale!
gotta love peplum and stripes!
love this Zara tee, just a little long on me...Buy it in my shop!
Free stretch bracelets for my first five shoppers...You purchase anything and get one of these beauties for free!
