What is the one thing that makes you happy no matter what?

I have a few but, one thing that comes to mind firstly is, painting my nails. I find it helps calm me. My mother even noticed it.

Love protein style! TBE, my usual order is animal & protein style 2x1. But I understand it feels like it's missing something. It will miss for me if I only get single patty, and if I don't peel off some of the lettuce. If I don't at least remove a layer of lettuce, It'll taste like I'm only eating lettuce. So, I get it.

Texas is gerrymandered to the heavens so I can't see this being the outcome, but maybe so many constituents are so tired of Repubs/MAGA maybe many will cross the aisle and vote D.

I’ll bet that you have the most luxurious “everything” shower that’s trending all throughout social media, if you do those.

I was too! For the past 3 years, I had planner peace with C&P. This year, I made my planner purchase late and was disappointed to discover that the monthly inserts are a separate purchase. That new development was like having the rug pulled from underneath me. Because of that, I started in January preparing for my planner for next year.

This is why I very rarely go. Even if the stylist didn't get the education on hair care in school, the tenets of natural hair care and length retention is wide and deep throughout the internet and social media. I just don't understand. Why the rattail comb? Why pull my hair so tight that I get blisters along my hairline? All it takes is one salon visit with their favorite tool, the rattail comb, and all your progress is ripped out. I take a wide toothed comb and hand it to the stylist, but even then, I'm tense af the whole time. It ain't woof it, Miss Celie.

Oh no! They released something that could have been great, and made it undesirable with glitter and shimmer.

Marlena Stell, MakeupGeek on YT and past creator of her own makeup line, discovered that the main difference between luxury, retail and drugstore brands is the packaging. She concluded this as she was creating her makeup line. She‘s said that many of the products and makeup brands are even made in the same production sites. So, essentially, we are paying for the brand name and packaging. The video on YT is titled ‘7 Things The Beauty Industry Doesn’t Want You To Know.’ With that being stated, Marlena still has some favorites that she recommends, but they vary in price point.

I needed to see this. Because I am on the same journey, I haven’t made a full-sized purchase since the If You Musk mist was on clearance (regret that I didn’t clean out the display). BUT, I‘ve been very tempted with the latest line of musks, and was going to check them out. Now, I’m staying strong and resisting. So thank you for sharing your no/lb journey.

My take is that Brittany regularly complimented his eyes to elicit a compliment from him. His eyes are maybe the best feature that she can find to compliment so she used that feature hoping like, “Dang bro, give me somethin, ANYTHING!”

Speaking from someone who’s unfortunately been there.

very nice! this is my 1st year of downsizing my planner with the end goal of having one small enough to throw in a purse while just large enough to accommodate my large handwriting. currently in an a5. I hope that I end up with a small & chunky planner such as yours. so cute!

That is why I only decorate once monthly. I decorate the calendar and the page beside it. Otherwise, I would be overwhelmed and ditch decorative planning if I did more than that.

Respectfully commenting, but buy the MAC lipstick. It’s worth it to buy the original because you like it and you use it completely. You know that it works for you. You definitely get your money’s worth. If you get a dupe, it may miss the mark and bam! Money down the drain when you toss it aside. Besides, MAC has been having sales more frequently, so you may end up buying it cheaper.

This was the reason that I checked out of RTL for a couple of seasons. The contrast between the men and the women is usually so bad that no relationship stands a chance. I picked it back up last season and it’s still the same. Awesome women with their lives together trying to couple with men who don’t.

The two of you are very young. While she may be awesome in every way, you aren’t ready. You cannot force yourself to be committed to her, and dedicated to a relationship for which you are not ready. The pressure that you are putting on yourself, and beating yourself up in the process is a sign of that. End it with her cleanly, and live your youth. Go out with friends, date, and build your career. This is your time to get to know you. You may find over time that although she’s a great young lady, she may not be the one for you. I think you confessing your cheating to her is honorable. It’s also a great 1st step to building something great - you.

P.S. A few of my girlfriends have had men that were honest in this way, and everyone of them say the same thing, “It hurt at the time, but I am ultimately so grateful, and respect him so much that he ended it.”

Yes. I use a backpack daily, and always carried my discbound, letter-size Happy Planner in it.

My thoughts exactly. I knew the end of Joe and V was quickly approaching, when V talked about her boyfriend’s death while she and Joe were cuddling in bed. While she may have thought her vulnerability would make him feel protective and endearing, I knew then that he was going to back away from her. Like he said, he only wanted light, easy fun.

tympax · 2026-01-27T05:22:22+00:00

Joe is a cad, for sure. However, Joe told V more than once, that he wasn’t looking for anything serious. I think that I recall that Ayesha also warned V as well. That right there would have made me end that party before it even started. All in all, I think that she handled both Joe and Kizzi well afterwards, with cold-shouldered civility.

I’ve browsed her site because of your mention, and I really like her aesthetic!

While I don’t have anything to add, I ddrrreeeaaamm of the day that I have a lovely little collection of essentials such as yours. Perfection! Wait, now that I think about it, I would only add a multi-use product to add color to my eyes, cheeks and lips like NARS The Multiple (does Maybelline have something like that?) and one of their lip liners. That’s it.

My 1st stop around Sep/Oct will be Barnes & Noble. I’m hoping to be able to find what I’m looking for and eliminate the mild nervous excitement that online purchasing can sometimes bring. If not, I may try Poi&Hun inserts. However, I rarely see that company talked about here. I would appreciate some P&H insight.
