Hmmm....I guess now I'm a housesitter...
Long story short I've recently become a house sitter. It's not as uncomfortable as I thought it would be. I've never even considered watching someone's house and dog's. I actually thought house sitting was a weird thing to do. Let me just say that it takes a whole lot of trust to allow someone in your home. And not just any home...but a really expensive one. Holy moly!
It went ok! It would have been better but their realtor sucks! She's a wolf in sheep's clothing. I've never met anyone that talked so much shit from the first minute she spoke to me. At one point my safety became a concern and even after I spoke to her she made it out to be my problem. So I did the only thing I could do and suggested to the owners that they get a new realtor. Plus, she's just barely trying to sell their house after months of "prep". Prep my ass! She hasn't done a thing!
Back to the point...I got a chance to house sit again this weekend and everything went smoothly. I even got another job lined up for September! Maybe more if I play my cards right!
As for my actual life...I've just swapped some cosmetics I don't use for brushes I need! Only thing I have to pay is shipping!
I've also got a wedding on July 3rd and a few things in between...
Only thing I can't stop thinking about is my goal... I promised myself that if I promoted myself up to Red Jacket then I would go to Seminar. I have till July 4th and am 2 more people away but it's becoming so difficult. I really want to go but I'd rather save my money for new tires and a chance to visit North Carolina.

Deodorant
So I've been bothered by my deodorant for a little while now...my preferred anti-perspirant is Dove Unscented...but since my Dad accidentally bought Secret Unscented I've been stuck wearing it.
Let me just say...I HATE IT! I smell worse that before I put it on and it doesn't even work! I feel like I have to reapply every hour or so...
Now I know what your thinking...I must have some glandular problem...well I don't. I've been wearing Dove for over 8 years and have never had this problem...and the only reason why I'm not switching back is because I'd hate to waste. And my Dad went out of his way to help me out so it's the least I can do...
I have been wondering if the Dove anti-perspirant that's supposed to help smooth out the skin under your arms work...
If you know...Tell me!

This is not a daily adventure...
This was supposed to be the daily adventures of a broke girl....I'm not saying that I'm not broke...but I certainly don't have an adventure everyday...and since I'm pretty sure your not going to want to know about how boring my day was....I'm going to switch it up a bit. (yes...I'm still saving up for school but I have a few things to work on first)
What I'd like to do is incorporate photos and sometimes reviews to my everyday activities. For example, I tried a new toothpaste that helps with whitening...I took before and after photos and noticed a difference.
I'm also hoping to figure out this whole video thing....as a makeup artist I'd love to show people how to apply their makeup with quick easy steps that make you look AMAZING!!!
I also have a confession to make...I'm officially a Senior Consultant with Mary Kay!!! Don't get me wrong I have an appreciation for all cosmetics but there's something about a company that enriches women's lives. I haven't felt this good about owning my own business in so long! I'm 100% motivated to do more!
Well now that I've said more than I planned I'm off to figure out what to call my blog....
any suggestions?

Updates...
So many things have happened in the last 22 days. I don't even know where to begin. I know I started this blog as a daily look into a broke girls life. Since the beginning the goal never changed but the road has had more forks than I can count.
I have 3 different things going on all at once...holy moly! I'm working as a photographer, makeup artist, and beauty consultant for one of the most amazing companies.
With that said...I'm going to North Dakota next month to visit a close friend. While I'm there, we are having a photo shoot. This photo shoot will consist of makeup application and photography. There's also a possibility for me to have a fun color party and sell some product! Here's where it gets complicated, my Mom mentioned the idea of me staying up there for a while longer so I can find more jobs and make some money. I've never lived outside the state of Texas...and the idea makes me a little nervous. The blessing about what I do is the freedom I get to move just about anywhere I want to. The problem is...by doing all of this traveling and moving around am I getting further away from my goal?
I'm also supposed to travel to North Carolina to visit with not only my newest team member but my closest friend. I'm gonna really miss her. I really need to make all of these opportunities work for me...I'm just not sure I know how. Well I know if I just keep the faith and working hard its all got to pay off.
On another note...I'm considering taking a trip to visit someone that I might like...am I crazy?
Oh yeah! I almost forgot...I've got a photo shoot, wedding, and a few makeovers set up before I leave so I'm really hoping business starts to grow!
A few more things to share but I cant remember and I've got to get to bed...Night!

Bullshit
That's it! I'm done! I'm not going to waste my time with prepubescent assholes that can't give you a clear answer. For the first time in many years, I actually admitted not only to myself but vocalized that I liked someone. I DON'T LIKE ANYONE! I never like anyone...and what does he say... I don't know you that well. Well who's fault is that asshole? If you really wanted to know me you would try. Fuck putting me out of my misery, I'll do it to myself. I've told him that I'm looking for a yes or no answer and his evasiveness will be taken as a NO. Don't do me any favors!
Whew! Boy do I feel better.
