Week 7: #StayHome

Was it just me or did this week go by fast? I don’t know what it was but when I sat back and asked what is today, it was Thursday.

Here I am at week 7 and I know some of you have been home longer and others for a shorter amount of time. Shout out to those essential workers that have continued to go to work!!!

Let’s seeeee what was I up to this week…

 

Work It Out

I have been sticking with staying in motion and trying to get in at least 30 minutes of exercise each day.  I found some really good YouTube videos and I even have now subscribed to them so I can start a folder of their videos for easy access.

You’ve Got Mail

I had some online orders come through from Sephora, Target, Amazon, and Oudiad. I will be back later this week to share some with you all. They are all still sitting at my front door.

Isotoner Signature Microterry Pillowstep Slippers with Satin Trim

Update: My slippers never made it. I have sent an email to Macy’s to see what happens next but I know given the situation it will be some time before I hear from them. I was looking forward to trying this pair.

 

 

Virtual Game Night

My friend La Toya hosted a virtual game night and we played Heads Up. We had a lot of fun and I’m looking forward to another night of it.

• The Blacklist
• Workin’ Moms

 

Kitchen Highlight

 

 

Waffle with fresh strawberries – I had been wanting this for the past 2 weeks and finally I made it. It was as good as I thought it would be.

 

 

#StayAtHome Hair

 

 

This week I decided to come out of the ponytail holder.

Products Used:

• Briogeo – Be Gentle Be Kind Avocado Co-Wash

(Can also be found on Amazon)

• Aunt Jackies – Knot On My Watch Instant Detangling Therapy
• The Mane Choice Biotin Infused Styling Gel – I liked the way it defined my curls but I did experience flaking in the front a bit. Not sure if it didn’t like mixing with other brands.
• Melanin Haircare – Multi-Use Oil Blend

 

Jill Scott & Erykah Badu

If you were there thennnnnn you know how it went down. I can’t even tell you what it was like. It’s crazy how songs hit differently when you get older.

 

I hope that everyone is staying safe and taking care of yourself physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Enjoy your week and we’ll catch up soon.
