I'm Still Kickin'!

Hello all!
It's been quite hot here in southern Utah and dry as a bone. We've actually had some occasions of single digit humidity! Coming from an area where it averages 70- 80% this time of year and you feel like you're going to suffocate/drown outside, the climate here seems like being on another planet. Desert Planet.

My apologies for deserting my posts (pun intended) for so long but for someone with such a dull life, I've had a lot to think about lately.

For starters, I think my makeup addiction MAY be fading! I know! How can that be? I've been trying to get control of it for quite some time--even to the extent of backing away from some of my favorite BeautyTubers who just buy more, more and yet more cosmetics on the weekly, if not on the daily. I joined a Facebook group dedicated to using up your stash, showing what you've used up, 'hitting pan' and no-buying/low-buying. Though in truth I haven't been perfect, I've cut down on indulging myself to a huge extent. And I certainly have less guilt.

I'll likely still post about makeup from time to time, when inspiration hits me, but I have not made many purchases this year...at least not of expensive brands.  Well, not much anyway.  There was the Lorac Pro 3 I wrote about previously, and a few things prior to that, but currently I have nothing else 'big' on my wish lists.
I think I'm finally accepting that I actually look better with little to no makeup on. And that's making me concentrate on the state of my skin, which still needs some help.

Besides all that silly nonsense, we are contemplating a home purchase. A mobile home to be specific, so nothing fancy, but it will seem like the Taj Mahal in comparison to living in an RV for so many years. At any rate, that's been keeping me up nights.

So between the oppressive heat, my addiction dwindling, and prospects of a possible final move, I haven't had much to post about!

Till next time,
