My lack of sleep has finally caught up to me and I slept in
later than I really intended to. By
later I mean after 7am. Because it was
so late I debated and debated and debated about whether to film or not since
the humidity was already kicking in. I
didn’t think I was going to even though I have a video that has to go up
Monday, but then once I got out of the shower I realized I have to get entirely
ready anyway because I still have to post for the #AvonColorLottery
regardless. At that point I was pretty
much determined that I was going to go ahead and film. My two lottery items for the day are
Glimmersticks Chromes in Midnight Flash and Glazewear lip gloss in Mauve Movement. I got
myself all prettied up and started to gather together items I needed to film
with and then came to a screeching halt realizing that I had just put on the wrong
products if I was going to film.
Ugh! I needed to be wearing a
different top secret item which I will be telling you about soon enough. So much for filming today. I also spent a little time bagging up orders
that I needed ready for this evening before heading out to the bank. Mentioning this makes me realize that I
completely neglected to tell you yesterday about my order arriving! It is amazing the things I forget when I’m
all over the place sometimes. Generally
the first thing I do when I get my boxes is rip them open to find the new
catalogues. I immediately want to know
what new products I will be selling in a month and which products are going on
clearance in the next campaign. Speaking
of new books… where in the world did I lay those? I need more time to go through them because
it never really was able to happen. I was just too busy.
Because the lottery is coming to a close on Sunday I needed
to come up with a new challenge for Avon’s Makeup Mavens for the month of
July. I had already discussed the basics
of the idea with the Maven who has been helping me with these challenges, but we
still needed to nail down the details so a lot of conversation and internet
searches went into finalizing those details.
The new challenge is also top secret until Sunday, but I’m sure you will
be hearing about it as well sooner rather than later. In between messages about the new challenge
were last minute emails and messages about the 4th of July
parade. Sometimes I am amazed that I
manage to ever make sense when I’m literally typing with one hand and texting
with the other.
Most of my morning was consumed with uploading and all of
the other details related to my video that goes live Saturday which I will link
here. I also of course had to edit the
photo that will be used as the thumbnail.
Speaking of photos, I also had to snap and edit the photos for today’s
lottery post so I will show you that picture here also.
My afternoon was so hectic that I literally can’t really
remember much of the details. What I do
remember is that I had to be at the bookstore by 6:00 to meet with some of my
reading friends (because I really do love to read and talk about reading and just being around books in general) and it took at least 30 minutes of being there before I could
relax and stop thinking about all of the things I need to do and stop feeling
like I was still multitasking and just enjoy my time there. I did have some work to do while I was there
too but I was able to eventually slow my mind down and stay in the moment. From there I was off to the dollar store to
grab some gift bags and to check out the mainstream makeup that has made its
way there which today included Milani, N.Y.C., E.L.F., and Maybelline. Then come texts about the fireworks display I’m
supposed to go to and then I’m not going to and then I’m going to and then we
don’t know if we are going to etc. and the realization that I’m hungry and have
only eaten an apple, two bites of peanut butter, and a granola bar today. Well, food is going to have to wait until
tomorrow because the decision has been made at the very last minute, and I’m
now headed over to catch the fireworks.
Tomorrow will be another day.
