one of the very first things I’ve been doing soon after getting up everyday this week is tap out a quick listing of things I’m grateful for. I typically do it on my phone, as well as in some cases in the early morning dark before dawn.
There’s something about these listings that curbs the desire to run around like a crazy person wielding a fork…

I kid! however no, seriously, the listings help. Whenever I feel that bit twinge as well as tighten my grip on the closest cutlery, I open the notes app on my phone as well as reread my lists. Seeing what I’ve written there in front of me puts things in perspective.
Because I don’t want to compose the exact same listings everyday (after all, there are some things that would appear on every list), I jot down the extremely very first things that come to my mind each morning.
Here are five of the things I’m grateful for today, together with short explanations, so you don’t go believing I’m totally off my rocker!

1. The new $29 MAC additional dimension Skinfinish in Superb
MAC beauty Daze additional dimension Skinfinish in Superb, $29
OHMIGOSH! I’m in lurve. I can’t keep in mind the last day I didn’t wear this shimmery, peachy nude highlighter. I believe I’ve used it everyday because beauty Daze came out.
Ah, however shimmery highlighters can be challenging to wear, particularly if you have any type of blemishes. Luckily, exceptional handles imperfections, well, superbly. It’s just so forgiving, as well as the glow it provides lasts me all the time long. much better still, it doesn’t work out into my fine lines, nooks, pores or crannies.
The formula, which is somewhere between a liquid, cream as well as a powder, is extremely well behaved.
I just pat it on the tops of my cheekbones, down the bridge of my nose, on my cupid’s bow as well as on my chin with a large, firm, paddle-shaped eye clean (the MAC 227 does a excellent job).
Then, I buff as well as smooth away any type of visible edges with my preferred tapered blending brush, the MAC 224.
What about its availability? Well, you’re in luck! It’s…Superb.
Ha ha. Okay, not really. I just wished to play with the name one much more time. exceptional is currently a hot commodity, as well as last I checked, it was noted as offered out on MAC’s website. You ought to be able to discover it, though, at MAC stores, counters as well as on the internet at nordstrom.com.

2. Pajama tops with pockets
So I’ve had this PJ Salvage flannel pajama top for about a year now, as well as I typically utilize the pockets to hold feline treats as well as pens (and in some cases my lint roller…’cause that’s exactly how feline women roll), however it never occurred to me before to really utilize the pockets to warm my hands.
What a revelation!
It occurred to me last night while I was lying in bed. My hands were freezing, as well as without thinking, I thrust them into the pockets.
Huzzah! So warm, so comforting… It was like hearing a soft lullaby or getting a hug from my mom.
Whoever came up with the concept to put pockets on pajama tops, you sir or madam, were a genius.
3. Steven Tyler
Okay, this one’s a bit weird, I know, however I saw part of a online Aerosmith performance on the Today show this morning as well as discovered Steven Tyler oddly inspiring.
There aren’t numerous dudes still rocking like that at his age, as well as he’s likewise got a quite wild sense of style. That wavy hair, those skintight pants as well as the ruffles… Ruffles?!
You go, Steven Tyler! (Note to self: purchase those area feline leggings ASAP.)
4. Maracas
They’re colorful, portable parties, as well as for a musical instrument, they have a extremely low barrier to entry (just shake!).
That’s what I want for Christmas. I want maracas that I can keep in my huge handbag for “emergencies.”
5. Boots
Especially low-heeled ones (says the woman who’s been using high heels on a regular basis because her early 20s). I have a brown pair from DSW that I’ve been using a great deal lately since they choose whatever — dresses, boots, skinny denim as well as even shorts. Bonus: if/when the zombie apocalypse occurs — okay, when zombie apocalypse occurs — they safeguard your ankles as well as feet from the biters, so you can run away from the herd…
