Purely Pampering Myself With Samples.

       Wow, I can't even count the number of days it has been since my last post. My life has been such chaos since then. I was accepted to the Respiratory program last fall. I am scheduled to graduate in May. My health has been improving. My derby career is currently on hold, I am a part time ref due to my school schedule and the fact that I need to work to pay bills.
     
I really have too much to write about, but what I really want to say can not be conveyed over the internet. I am better than that.

     So the real reason I am breaking my internet silence is for a friend. She is a Perfectly Posh independent sales rep. She has sent me a few samples to try and to write my honest opinion about. I am not getting paid and the samples I received are very small. Just enough for one use.

     This morning I tried one of the soaps, they call it Chunk. I used Chatter Citrus. According to the catalog These soaps are made from palm kernel oil and nourishing butters to please your senses and clean your skin.

     Again, I want to say that the size of the sample I got to try was small, about an inch square. It took a while for the fragrance to become apparent, it was very mild, which was a disappointment, because I really like citrus scents. Once the fragrance did become apparent it was very pleasing. I would like to try a larger bar, maybe the scent will be stronger, enough so that it will stay on my skin.

I will be updating this blog as I try each of the samples I have been given. I think tomorrow I will try the Maha Satori Gelee body wash. I am an asthmatic and very sensitive to smells and my friend has told me that I should have no problem. I know I am looking forward to trying this and her other samples. She sent me citrus and spice scents, which I prefer to floral. 

School is Back in Session

Well, I have had a few weeks of my new semester, this begins the formal focusing on my new career as a Respiratory Therapist. Not only am I going to school for 16 credit hours (a normal full class load is 12), I am also working a job that is sucking the life out of me. I will not go into specifics other than to say I am looking for a new job and I have only been employed since the middle of July. As for my personal lung issues, I still have not been given an answer, now I am being told that the nodule in my lungs is still there, it is still the same size and is most likely scar tissue, not very comforting.

Well, that's about it for now.

Follow ups

Four Down completely, I ended my 4th semester with 2 B-s and 2 A-s. One of the B-s was bogus, the instructor's final exam covered stuff she never mentioned in class, and I don't under stand how getting A-s on all the quizzes, a very high B on the paper and midterm could equal a B at the end of the semester. On the Job hunt side, I finally heard back and I didn't get the job, but I have been putting in applications all over, so....we'll see.

Well, the Piranhas at the pump are going to continue to eat at my check book, the car I was looking at was far from spectacular and the dealer was not willing to give me what I wanted for my Jeep. So, the hard top came off and the soft and bikini tops went on.

Possibilities haven't heard anything back, so that is more than likely not going to happen.

Motivation...I still need it.

Expanding my horizons Due to our move to a different town I could no longer go to the EMT trainings and meetings in my former small town. I am hoping to possibly start up here, but because I don't know anyone, I doubt it will happen.
