January Reads

Welcome back to the blog! January has been a busy month for me.  I joined the Goodreads Reading Challenge again this year in the hopes of spending more quality time with my books.  Goodreads has always been my favorite way to keep track of the books that I have read and I also love all the giveaways on the website for a chance to win more books.  January has also brought a lot of usually cold weather here to Florida but it has given me more time to listen to podcasts and audiobooks. This month I decided to focus on audiobooks and I picked two genres to stick to this month. The genres I chose to focus on were cozy mysteries ( my favorite) and then I decided to try a genre I had never read before, historical western romance. I must say I'm absolutely loving the historical western romance genre. In the month of January I listened to twenty audiobooks.  January Reads  Title  A Bride for Christmas  Author  Bella Brown  Series  Mail Order Brid...

Insight Timer App Review

Welcome back friends. I recently discovered a new app called Insight Timer and I wanted to share my thoughts with you on it. I learned about this app when a podcast host I listened to mentioned it and I decided to download it and try it out for myself and all of you. Insight Timer Review  I have been using the Insight Timer App for a few weeks now and the first thing I noticed about it was that there are no ads at all. The Insight Timer App is free to use, you can make donations if you choose and they do offer a premium service although they never push it on you which is really nice. Always a plus in my book. I would personally classify this app under self- help / self-care . Again that is personal assessment.  I will tell you this though, since the day I downloaded the Insight Timer App I have used it at least twice a day every single day.  The app has a lot to offer but I personally use it for meditation, mindfulness, gratitude, affirmations, manifestation, and journali...

T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel Astringent Review

Good morning and welcome to the blog! Today I will be sharing my favorite product that I use for adult acne and as a facial toner. In case you didn't know about Witch Hazel it is an astringent that you can pick up practically anywhere.  I purchased T.N. Dickinson’s Witch Hazel at my local Walmart Marketplace ( you can find it in the pharmacy area next to rubbing alcohol and peroxide).  Witch Hazel has a myriad of uses including soothing insect bites, removing excess oils, cleansing the skin, after shave care, calming redness, blemishes, and more. I use T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel primarily for breakouts and as a toner.  Review One of the things that I love about T. N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel Astringent is the fact that it is so gentle on the skin. I use this in the morning and in the evening with no problems.  Over the past few years, I have tried several products targeted for mature skin both as a facial toner as well as for acne and have had dismal res...
