There are so many interpretations for today, 12 12 12, but only one fact ~ none of us will be alive to see another repeating-number-date!
I’ve read that the number 12 is prominent, 12 is a number of universal imports seen in our culture; 12 hours of the day, 12 months of the year, 12 in a dozen, 12 zodiac signs, 12 apostles, and 12 days of Christmas. There are suggestions to enjoy the beauty of the procession of the December holidays, starting by lighting miracles in the days of Hanukkah, leading to the gateway day of 12.12.12; stepping through the threshold of December 21, the Winter Solstice; walking into the 12 days of Christmas, and finally embracing the seven principles of Kwanzaa for a renewed human experience.
Whatever the interpretation, I do plan on doing something special by being extra kind to someone and paying it forward, it will be a small gesture to make this day bigger and more significant than the others.
Are you planning or have you done something special to mark this day?
Don’t forget that tonight is the 12-12-12 Concert to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy – wonder what Kanye has to say about President Obama?
Have a fantabulous afternoon – Smooches!

Tuesday evening I went to Walgreens because of their advertised sale on Butterball Turkey Bacon, 6 oz for $1.29, which is much cheaper than the grocery stores. My son usually eats 4 slices a day so this was definitely a money saver.
I first purchased a bottle of Revlon Nail Polish for $4.99 and received a $1.00 off with an in store coupon as well as a $3.00 off coupon for my next purchase . Armed with that coupon and my coupon caddy I checked the end caps for clearance items. There was Poise Cooling Gel and Poise Freshener, both marked down and with my coupons I paid .12 cents for each. My purchased also included Holiday Liquid Hand Soaps, marked $1.99 each or 2/$3.00, but with Rewards paid $1.09 each; Sally Hansen Nail Polish, $1.49 and a pack of Liners for a total cost of $13.44.
I am loving the Walgreens Rewards Program

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday
It’s a warm December day in the Delaware Valley and I hope it’s the same “in your neck of the woods” – I love Al Roker! Saturday my girlfriend told me about her daily Zumba workout so last night I pulled up some YouTube videos and tried it. Man oh man it was an awesome workout, I loved it and will definitely try it every night to fight off these excess lbs that have attached themselves to my body!
Today’s outfit is almost totally thrifted, the blouse, skirt and shoes were all thrifted from Goodwill
Reversible Two-Tone Belt – Avon // – Necklace & Earring Set – Jewelrymax.net // Watch – Joan Rivers Collection via QVC outlet
This afternoon, I may pull out my sneakers from under my desk and go for a brisk walk.

This one is definitely my favorite, a 6″x 5″, vinyl SOHO Beauty Bag in leopard print, perfect for the season and can easily be wiped clean. It wasn’t until later this morning that I realized it matched my OOTD perfectly so I had a co-worker take this picture.

I love Shanda’s channel because she keeps it real with her weekly chats on everything from fashion, sex & relationships (for the grown and sexy), hair care, make up, shopping and many other timely topics. She recently launched a clothing line, Curvysta which is one of her life long dreams, I know she will do well with this new endeavor.

Smooches!

As per my previous post (here) of buying nail polish at fiveBelow, I finally used the Nutra Nail Gel Perfect manicure and have to admit that it was well worth the $5.00. After wiping my bare nails with a little alcohol, I followed the directions of unscrewing all the bottles and polishing nails with the activator first. One hand at a time, immediately apply the color over the activator, then clean the brush before doing a second coat.
I repeated the same procedure on the second hand and after 15 minutes it still felt tacky to the touch. I had used too much of the color polish but it hardened after I ran my hands under cold water which was suggested (old school). The good thing about this product is that you don’t need a base or top coat and it dries quickly without the use of an ultra violet light which is used in the salons.
I wish it came in more colors because I would definitely buy this product again.
