Ipsy Bag + March Chit Chat

Hey you! Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was fine. I tried to relax but ended up organizing some of my beauty supplies. I'm always trying to find a new system that works the best. Saturday was my Grandmother's 76th birthday and I had a nice long chat with her. I was worried about her since she recently lost her first born (my dad). And she was worried about me! It was kind of funny. Anyway, I had a bad migraine (thanks allergies) that kept me out of commission most of Sunday. I did get my monthly video edited for you! Check it out, below:

How was your almost-over March? It flew by, right? Every month I get personal and share my month in review with these Chit Chat videos.

• First, I talk about my March, which was awful, to be honest. My Daddy died and my dog was attacked, BUT there were some highlights, too.
• I share my favorite blog posts of the month--I'd love to see if we picked the same ones!
• I also talk about my monthly #JALS (Just a Little Something) challenge. Pick something small, a small goal, and work on it for the month. For March, I wanted to be present. I'm addicted to my phone, so this was a hard one. For April, I plan on making 1 healthy choice a day. I'd LOVE for you to participate. Let me know what goal you plan on doing for April!
• I also shared my IPSY bag for March:

• NYX Cosmetics Butter Lipstick--Pamper your lips with a hydrating kiss of smooth Butter Lipstick in 22 luxurious shades. The delicate texture of satin fused with the high color saturation creates an even finish on lips that’s long-wearing and beautiful.

I admit, sometimes I feel like my blog is a "stop-and-drop" meaning some just drop a random comment hoping to gain traffic or stop by just because I visited their blog. It hurts because I work so hard on this! My blog is my passion and keeps me going.

And that makes me hesitant to share anything about my life, so I am thankful for everyone who has supported my blog, my youtube, and especially me during these past few weeks.  It was so hard opening up but I'm glad I did. You mean so much and I cannot thank you enough.
