Greater is Coming, but Be Patient my Friend

A couple of days ago at work I left my bank card at home by accident and realized I couldn't get lunch. I'm not going to lie, I slightly panicked. I started searching in my purse for change and dollars until I finally found two dollars in my wallet. I was happy, although plenty of times when I didn't have lunch money I prayed for a miracle and always got food. But this time I didn't pray for a miracle, and went downstairs and got the cheapest thing I could find, a cup of beef chili. It was more delicious than usual for some strange reason. When I went to my normal 12:30pm meeting I kind of regretted buying that cup of chili. Why? Because the important people (CEOs and CFOs) were at the meeting and they brought about 50 Panera Bread sandwiches, dozens of chips, cookies, waters, soda, salad, and fresh bread. I was shocked and mad at the same time. If only I had waited about 30 minutes later. Now I was kind of full from the chili and couldn't enjoy all this food as much as I wanted to. I said all that to say this: Be patient and hold off on the cheap cup of chili, if you want greater later. " ....Wait, I say on the Lord" Psalm 27:14.

How to deal with Dramatic Father/Mother of your Children if not Together

Hello everyone, today I want to give a couple of tips on dealing with a dramatic ex who you have to continue to communicate with because of things you share (children/property). The first thing is to know for yourself how you feel about this person. Do you have second thoughts about why you left? Do you still have feelings in your heart for this person? If the answer is no then run for your life, just kidding. But you should make it clear that your feelings are gone and don't play with that person's emotions especially if they are right on the edge of insanity, that's how you end up dead (just kidding once again, although it is a possibility). The second thing is to keep your distance. Don't accept an invite from your ex to their mother's house for Thanksgiving dinner. You don't want to still feel like you are "part of the family." Only keep good communication for the sake of the children. Third, do everything on your part to keep the peace. Speak kind words only and don't allow them to get under your skin. My last and final tip is to pray for guidance to Christ if you don't know how to deal with a person, He is always willing to help. Keep your head up and stay blessed!!!!!

Make Your Nail Polish Pop This Spring and Summer

Have you ever purchased a nail polish and the color is actually more dull on your nails that in the bottle? Well you can fix that with one simple trick that I will be doing this season with my color polishes. What you can do to make your colors pop more is add a white base coat first and then polish your nails with the color of your choice. What I did here is used a thin coat of white and two thin coats of the color just so the white won't show. I used Maybelline New York Color Show in Limited Addition Lustrous Lime 925. The top pic is without the white coat and the bottom is with. See the difference?
