Happy Friday!!! Is it just me or did this week fly by?? How is it already Friday? How is it already officially Spring? Why do I have to work this weekend? HA! So since it’s finally Friday and all you know the drill, it’s time for the Friday Five!! If you are new around here the Friday Five is just a list of five random things I think need to be blogged about. Most of the time my lists are random but occasionally they have a theme, not today though! Today this post is as random as my blog posting “schedule” has been lately. LOL!
Anyway, here we go…
ONE. I got a massage yesterday for the first time in a long time and it was AMAZING. I haven’t had a massage since I was in my wreck last fall and to say things were tight was an understatement. All I said was that my neck was super stiff and sore (as well as my usual aches…neck, shoulders, lower back) and she found the exact spot and worked on it forever and I seriously feel like a new woman. I came home and took a long nap and today I feel like I can take on the world!! So if you live in central Arkansas and need a good massage therapist, email me!!
TWO. If you read then you know I am Loreal mascara obsessed. Well I stepped out of my Loreal comfort zone and picked up this Maybelline Total Temptation after seeing it all over social media and I have to say that I am loving it! It gives really good volume and length and is easy to wash off but doesn’t run down your face halfway through the day. That’s important people.
THREE. I found a new Instagram obsession!! If you are a plus size lady and feel like you can’t dress the way regular size people do then think again! The12ishStyle takes photos of models and celebs and recreates their outfits and looks fabulous doing it!! I may or may not have stalked her blog and found so many more places to shop!!! Check her out!!
FOUR. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are getting married in 2 months. As royally obsessed as I am I can’t believe I haven’t talked about that on the blog much but I guess I have been distracted?? Who knows!! I admit that at first I was like “ehhhh…” but now that it’s getting closer and the details are rolling in I am so so SO excited!! I have to work the weekend they get married but thanks to the time difference I should still be able to watch it live!! Expect a few royal related posts between now and then!!
FIVE. I got a new pair of workout shoes!!! I fully admit to having been a little bit Nike obsessed over the past few years but I stepped out of my comfort zone and ordered a pair of Brooks. A friend I work with recommended the brand to me and after some research on their site I decided to try a pair! I have weird feet…I am an under pronator and have super high arches so I am super picky about my shoes. I got them in yesterday and will be trying them out this afternoon so I will let you know how it goes!! I am super excited to try these shoes!! Plus, let’s be real, how CUTE are these???
Happy Friday!! I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!

I’ve heard aabout Brooks shoes but have never tried them. I could really use a massage and am way overdue for treating myself to one.

Love Loreal makeup. That coat is perfect for spring and love the color. I am in need of couple new pairs of tennis shoes. One for inside and a new pair for outdoors. These look like a nice pair.
Danielle Fox says
I love my Brookes! I just got my first pair
Amber Myers says
These are some fabulous shoes. I love the colors! I don’t think I’ve ever had a massage before. I might have to try one out. I’m sure I’d love it.
Happy Friday!
Joanna @ Everyday Made Fresh says
Just went and liked Katie’s Instgram so that I can stalk it! Haha. I will have to check out that mascara. I am not liking the Cover Girl peacock stuff.
Jeanette says
I have never heard of these shoes, but I really need a new pair! I need to check these out. My feet are begging me for a new pair of shoes!
Tasheena @ SimplyTasheena.com says
Love your list! I need a pair of those sneakers. I have to visit the The12ishStyle Instagram thread. I love what they are doing!
Lisa says
I’ve heard a lot of great things about Brooks before. I haven’t tried them yet. I’m kind of eh about the royal wedding. I guess it has no effect on my life so it doesn’t really matter to me.
Destany says
A massage! I’ve never had a professional massage. I so want one! I think it would go a long way in helping with my back issues. I pinched my sciatic nerve a few years ago, and it gives me fits sometimes.
Peter says
I haven’t worn a pair of brooks shoes in forever. My grandfather swore by them. A massage sounds delightful right about now, I woke up with shoulder pain
Jenn @ EngineerMommy says
Love your new workout shoes. I am in the market for new exercise sneakers. Those are colorful and stylish!!
Up Run for Life Healthy Lifestyle Blog says
I haven’t heard of Brooks brand. I will have to check them out since I have issues with my feet thanks to my rheumatoid arthritis.
I will also tell my daughter about the mascara, she usually buys her mascara at the drugstore too.
Sara Welch says
I love the duster denim style. It is really catching on.
Kita Bryant says
I want those shoes! I have never heard of Brooks before, but they look really comfy!
chubskulit rose says
I love that workout shoes you’ve got. I need a new pair myself because the one I’m using have seen better days already.
Heather says
I’m going to get that mascara this week. I need a new one and it seems to be exactly what I’m looking for!
Katherine Rose Rivera says
That Maybelline mascara looks promising. It’s not available in our country. The denim thing is stylish too. I love button down denim for my outfit.
Catalina says
I love this friday post! This is the perfect wayto find a lot of interesting new things! I love idea that someone recreates the outfit of the stars maiking it available to all!
Carol Cassara says
A lovely list of things to love. I am completely obsessed with Harry and Meghan, they’re just so adorable and so good together. It’s tough not to like them and follow along with the wedding prep.
Anosa Malanga says
ohhh Nice! I got an idea to make sure to have a massage on friday night. I really need to treat myself and pamper it once in a while. Also, I need to check a new workout shoes too! Mine is going to retire already. Lol!
