I made it here in one piece. Barely. The house is nice, albeit some issues with a scatterbrained landlord who doesn't like to return phone calls or emails. The city is adorable and has so much going on. The weather has been great. Even Toby seemed to immediately love it here.

So why oh why have I been in such an awful funk since arriving? I keep telling myself it's normal until I'm feeling settled in. Hopefully the reassurance is true and the funk/reoccuring bad dreams will end once I've thoroughly "nested" and this new place starts to feel like home.

In the meantime, I officially have an internet connection again. :)

Alright. So you might think it's too early to start thinking about stocking up on your makeup for fall. (At least that's how I feel in this 90 degree South Carolina weather!) But let's face it--summer is winding down and fall (my favorite season!) is right around the corner.

When I'm trying out new trends for a new season, I don't want to spend a fortune when I'm not sure if the "must have" nail polish color or lipstick shade is going to work for me. That's why I love hitting up Walmart. I get the lowest price on my favorite drugstore brands--like L'Oreal, Revlon and Maybelline. And what's reassuring about Walmart, especially in my case with moving to a new city? There's always one nearby.
