Hello there!
It’s been awhile since I have done one of these posts. “Awhile” meaning 15 months! Oops.
Anyway what these are are just little chat sessions so I can catch you up on any news happenin’ around these here parts.
But I do have an ulterior motive for this post. It’s an issue that’s been bothering me and has come up a lot lately so I figured I would address it here. Continue reading »
Welcome to another chat session!
It’s been a couple months since I did one of these so I thought it was time. For new readers, this is just a post I do every once in awhile to update you on what’s going on with the website and then open it up so we can chat about whatever you want.
So let’s see, what’s new with the site? Not much actually. Everything seems to be running smoothly and working as it should. I don’t have any major overhauls planned at the moment. I have noticed an increase in traffic in the last couple months, so thanks to you all for that!
I have been posting a lot of cosmetics and beauty posts, but also posting pretty much the same amount of nail posts as in the past. I have noticed though that while people often comment on nail posts, I don’t get very many on the other ones. Is there any reason why you might not be commenting? Just curious. I’m not going to let that stop me because while I know some people want me to only blog about nail polish, I will continue to do what I love doing, otherwise it gets boring for me.

Hey guys!
This afternoon I’ve got another installment of my Coffee Break series. If you don’t know what these are, basically it’s just an open session in which I give you some news about what’s going on, and you get to ask me questions about whatever you want!
I want to welcome all the new people I have recently seen on VV (and Twitter), thanks so much for reading the site! Without you I am nothing. 
Hey world!
Sorry I haven’t been around, it’s been kind of crazy this past week.
On Thursday we were in the middle of having new carpet installed in the house when we got a phone call that a relative of Mr. VV’s was very sick, so we were worried of course. The carpet was installed from 9:30 am until 8:00 pm, then we had to get all the furniture moved back into the house and put the beds together. We were up util midnight doing that.
By Friday, which was also my birthday (and the most stressful one ever) things looked bad, so we had to get tickets for a flight to the south. We spent Saturday preparing to leave and getting as much of the house together as we could. The cats, especially Sammy, was totally freaked out by everything. Sammy was VERY upset because we got all new bedroom furniture and completely re-arranged the way it was set up. He used to sleep on top of our armoire, that was HIS spot, and we gave it away. So the first 2 nights he woke us up at 3:00 am crying and looking around for his spot. 
We do have a friend staying at the house with them though and he seems to be fine now.
On Sunday we got up at 3:30 am and flew out to Alabama. Things have improved greatly with Mr. VV’s relative since we got here, so it’s very good news and we can relax a little. Have I mentioned it’s HOTTER THAN HELL here? Oh yes, I know it’s only been summer for 3 days, but it’s already one of the hottest ones here. It’s been about 97-100 every day with massive humidity. The heat index has been 100-105. And the bugs. Ick
We have made it to Friday, or maybe Saturday, depending on where you are in the world. Finally! I swear it seems more and more like 5 day work weeks are set up to purposely try and kill me.
If you are not familiar with this type of post let me just explain quickly. Every month or so I just want to check in with you guys and give you any new info on the site, or anything else exciting that’s going on. You also get a chance to ask me anything you want under the sun!
