Pimple Popping Video Obsession

It’s true. I have an obsession with pimple popping videos. Readers are either going to wrinkle their noses and ask what in the heck is wrong with me, or they will feel a kinship with me because they, too, are obsessed with these videos.

Seriously, I don’t understand it. But I know I find these videos very satisfying. I won’t post anything graphic here in case you’re a reader who finds the whole thought repulsive. However, I HAVE to post a link to Dr. Sandra Lee so that you can maybe, just MAYBE, take a chance and watch some of the videos. The video below is just Dr. Sandra Lee introducing her channel. You can click from there to see the selection of videos.

What are your thoughts on this obsession of mine? Are you with me? Or do you think I’m crazy? Comment below! 🙂

Subscription Box Fun with FabFitFun!

I recently got into the subscription box rage. Subscribe and get a box of goodies mailed to you every week, every month, every quarter. These subscription boxes can range from food/snacks, clothing, makeup, books, the list goes on and on. The one I just signed up for was FabFitFun. And getting the box was a lot of fun for sure!

I decided to open my box on video to share it with all of you. I’m sitting on the floor in my bathroom because it’s the only place I can be assured of privacy (with the bedroom door locked as well.) It’s the end of the day, so my makeup and hair are wilted. And, I’m clearly opening this and seeing items for the first time, so go easy on me 🙂 (PS– the item at the end is a beach/picnic blanket!)

Do you like subscription boxes? Which are your favorite? Why do you like them?

Teens Can’t Smell Sweat

As a mother of a “tween” daughter, a son rapidly approaching “tween” status, and a teacher of ages 10-14, I am treated daily to….how do I put this? Well, plain and simple, STENCH. Tweens and teens STINK. But, a study recently found that teens can’t smell sweat. The study didn’t end the problem of teens stinking, but it at least offered some scientific evidence that mothers, teachers, the general adult public can smell certain things much better than teens.

According to The News & Observer, a study conducted in Denmark provided answers as to why teens don’t have the same reaction to smelly rooms, clothes, shoes, etc as adults do.

Even the Today Show found this study interesting.

This may provide a lot of comfort to mothers, teachers, and other adults everywhere. Although, if you need certain scents sniffed out, seems like a teen is your best bet.

The full study conducted by Aarhus University in Denmark revealed a lot of interesting findings about teens. As a mother and a teacher, this study is both fascinating and terrifying.

A New Goal: Blogging More

And by “blogging more” as my goal, I mean blogging period. I’m going to work at posting short, easy, fun blogs 3-5 times a week. Sometimes they may be just a funny video or meme. Sometimes they may be about my favorite things. Or my cute kitty cat. But, I’m going to work to post blogs 3-5 times a week.

Wish me luck! I plan to start tomorrow! Stay tuned!
