July Goal Results and August Goals

I still can't get over my son turning 5 next week and going to kindergarten. It seems like I just brought him home and just staring at him wondering what to do next. He has just grown so much and looking forward to watching him grow more. Today I am updating you on my July Goals and the ones I have set for August. You can see the previous post HERE!!

Get through a book

Well if you count my textbook, then no I have not lol! I really thought I could get through this one but it couldn't fit in my schedule. I have started reading this daily devotional book that one of friends wrote last week. So far I am doing well with that. I really miss reading, hopefully I can fit in in my crazy schedule lol!!


Stick to schedule for schoolwork and blogging

I am so happy that I made this schedule because it has been super helpful. I feel so much more organized and in charge of my time management. I don't feel so overwhelmed and crazy now lol! I just love that I did this and have been sticking to it!


No meat during the week

This was a big challenge for me but I've eaten no meat for Lent and got through it. There were only a couple days that I forgot but I did so well with this.


August Goals

Try out some of those Tasty recipes floating around on Facebook lol
Be more prepared for the next day
Stick with morning workout
Practice wing liner more often

So that is it for my monthly goals. Did you have goals set for last month? How did you make out? Comment below and let me know. See you guys Thursday!

HAVE YOU CHECKED OUT MY JULY FAVORITES??


~**Drea Notes**~

Have you been watching the Olympics? I love gymnastics and can't wait for track to start.

I've been trying to eat healthier and snack better. Its so hard when I want cookies and doughnuts. It is hard trying to find something to curb the sugar cravings lol!

Can't believe my blog is turning 3 at the end of the month!

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

No Buy is Officially Over!!

Yay!! I survived 2 months without a single makeup purchase!! I am so proud of myself and knew I had the will power to do it!! It really helped me staying out of Sephora, Ulta and Mac, the usual places that get me in trouble lol! When I went into Target or Walmart, I wouldn't even go near the makeup section. Funny thing is, I haven't run to the store yet to purchase anything on my wish list yet but I will soon. You can see what is on my wish list here.  After organizing my makeup, I realized I have a lot of products that I don't use and need to try out soon. I'm going to try to really shop my stash before running out and buying something new. Maybe next time, I will go for a 3 month no buy!! Have you successfully completed a no buy? What is currently on your wish list? Comment below and let me know!! ~** Drea Notes**~ We went to the beach today and I'm so glad we did! It was such a fun day with the family!! I'm trying to get back to working out lol!  ...
