These are a few of my favorite things
I haven't posted anything for awhile so here is a random one......are ya ready?.......These are some things that help me survive crappy moments. My life is not really crappy in anyway, but there are times where you just don't feel well which brings me to my first crappy moment zappers..... 
The next thing I really really like are those microfiber cloths. If you have black furniture that shows dust all the time these are amazing. I actually enjoy dusting with these things! Sterling can't get me to stop dusting!
The next thing that is great is this silk hair product. Ya know those days where your hair just doesn't work. This stuff is amazing. It defrizzes my hair and untangles it and makes it soft and shiny it's great if you have a lot of crazy hair.
The next thing I really like is cheddar beer kettle chips. They are so gooooooooooooooood!
Last but certainly not least.... I absolutely love this guy! He is so incredible! I think I could advertise all those products above but this guy is mine.
This stuff is so great. I've been feeling a bit sick the past few days and this helps make the symptoms less crazy. It helps a lot when you are feeling a cold coming on. This has saved my life so I can go to work. The next thing I love is fuzzy socks. Wearing scrubs and fuzzy socks to work can make working a lot more enjoyable. :)
