One last rant.

March 31, 2009

Sorry to hear about the untimely death of all your houseplants, BigSis!! That's a real bummer! I hate it when something like that happens that is absolutely no one's fault but your own! You had some beautiful, unique plants! I know you're just sick about it! Are you going to try to replace them or wait a while to give yourself time to mourn?

Not that this compares at all with the death of all your beloved houseplants, but I've been mad at myself for the past two days because I thought I lost my new Hello Kitty Mac cosmetic bag. 🙁 (I know, boo hoo!)

I had become very attached to that bag and it contained five of my favorite MAC lipsticks, including the two new Hello Kitty lipsticks. I called the grocery store twice to have them check their lost and found because it's the only place I could remember where I might have taken the bag out of my purse to get my wallet out. Of course, they said no one had turned it in.

Today, I was just about ready to accept the fact that it was gone and move on. Then, this morning, SirHoney found my bag somewhere in his truck and he walked in with it in his hand and just said “You owe me big time”.   🙂

He's right.  I do! I'm sure he'll think of something he wants in return!

We really don't like to whine and complain too much here but I promise this will be my last rant for a while. I'm so aggravated at myself about this! Over the past several months, BigSis talked about the Borba anti-cellulite products and BigSis talked more about Borba results and I shared my results with the Borba Products; yet I let myself run out of the contour creme! DUH!

When the tube started sputtering, I should have ordered more instead of waiting until it was practically gone! I had no choice but to hack into the tube with some scissors so I can try to scrape out enough to last a couple of days.

I'm not wasting a drop of this stuff!

And yes, IMHO, this product is worth the trouble! I even paid extra S&H so I could receive it in two days. Whew! I feel better now. I'm over it!

Over the next several days, we'll get back to talking about more cheerful stuff; like Spring in Texas, Easter Bunny cakes, Easter menus, and BigSis' and SisMamas' upcoming trip to California.

Maybe I'll have time soon to talk about some new MAC and Urban Decay products that I couldn't resist buying!

    Hey LilSis. Yep, I’m pretty bummed about the plants. Once I get back from vacation I may buy a plant or two since my patio looks so nekkid now with nothing alive on it!

    Don’t you find the Borba cream hard to squeeze out of that tube? Other than the odd smell, that’s the only thing I’d like to change about it.

    Do tell about the new products you got!

    Cathy – No, I can’t promise bikini ready in a few weeks…If I could, I would! haha! All I can say is that it is the best anti-cellulite creme that I’ve used. I absolutely have noticed a difference in the texture of my skin. In addition to this product, I am watching my fat intake and taking my cardio up a notch! It’s definitely not a miracle product, but I have noticed a difference! Promise!

    Noble Pig – I had never heard of it either until BigSis discovered it. I love the results!

    BigSis – Yes, it is hard to squeeze out of the ding dang tube! Maybe it’s those MIRACLE diamond ingredients that makes it hard to get out of the tube! 🙂

    I always take the cap off, which makes it a little easier, but they need to change the packaging. I don’t really mind the smell. The other two products that you use in the shower do have a nicer scent, but the contour creme scent didn’t really bother me.

    I wanted to add one thing about the Borba…I almost ordered through the Borba site, but decided to check QVC one more time and this time they had it back in stock and the S&H was less than Borba. I think between HSN and QVC, it’s a hit or miss whether or not they have it.

    This contour creme isn’t even available as Auto Ship through the Borba site. I think I’m going to email them and tell them they should add it as a product to receive via auto ship.

    Hi again,

    I would suggest one alternative to the Borba, if you don’t mind caffeine…the Loreal Sublime Slim. It’s a great gel, and I was loving it until I had to get off caffeine completely.

    I’m glad to hear the Borba products are back at QVC. I got my cream this last time at beauty.com for $32, and got free shipping.
