Organizing Your Desktop

Hey guys! Here lately I have been messing around with PicMonkey and making all kinds of cute designs and collages.. Well I found this awesome way to help organize my desktop for my computer thru Pinterest using PicMonkey.. I have to say I think it looks awesome..

Here is what my layout looks like... Then all you have to do is organize your icons in the appropriate sections.. Here is a pic of my layout... 

 
 
I found the tutorial for it here at  I heart planners ...She goes thru it step by step for you in a video.. And makes it really simple to do.. This is for Mac users I think.. So I will list another link for PC users HERE..  Her site is called Moritz Fine Designs   Very awesome website.. Both of these Blogs are awesome.. I can't wait to explore them more..
 
Here are a couple of screenshots of my desktop with some of my icons organized.. I am loving it so far..


 

Sorry the shots are a lil dark.. I don't know what is up with the lighting in my bedroom.. must be too dim.. anyways.. Just thought I would share.. I really like this idea.. Go on over to these wonderful Blogs I linked to and check it out for yourself.. These ladies do awesome work and I am so glad I found them on Pinterest..

That's all for now.. Hope you enjoyed this lil post.. And I hope it helped you in some small way.. I know it did me.. I hope you have a great day today! And I will be back to post some more great ideas for organizing and what-not when I run across them.. And I would love for you to share any and all organizing tips you get with ME!  Bye for now!!

Frugal Living at it's Finest

Hey yall!! You know I'm all about living frugally and making sure I don't spend too much money each payday.. Well some of my items came in the mail that I got GREAT deals on and just wanted to share with yall..

I got my ELF products today.. yay!! I have been waiting on this setting powder that I LOVE!! It makes your makeup stay on all day long.. I especially need that for work.. Here's a pic of my ELF products that I ordered..
I can't wait to try the ELF SHIMMERING FACIAL WHIP!! That's one I haven't tried yet.. But if you guys are looking for a face powder that really sets your makeup and lasts all day.. You should really try the ELF PERFECT FINISH HD POWDER.. It's translucent.. plus it's only $6.. This is my second time ordering it.. So it is def becoming a staple among my makeup..

And then I also got a YERDLE package that I have been waiting on.. I ordered some indoor tanning lotion. Only paid 5YERDLE $$ Dollars for it.. and I think like $7 for shipping and service fee that YERDLE charged me.. still better than like $30 bucks at tanning salons.. Its a brand new full bottle.. Here's a pic of it.. It's called Australian Gold "Scientific Velocity". has bronzer in it.. Can't wait to use it tonight when I tan...
 
Sorry the pic is sideways!! URGH.. that's the way my camera imported it on my computer.. Anyways, just wanted to share with you some of my items that I received in the mail.. I love getting goodies in the mail.. I will be doing a blog post on some more cute stickers and journaling cards I found on Pinterest.. So I will talk to you guys soon!!! Hugs and Kisses from Me

Podcasts Anyone?

Hi guys! How is everyone doing this evening? (this day has flown by for me).. I hope everyone is doing well.. I was laying here relaxing, thinking about work in the next few hours... Kinda dreading it, but kinda not.. Might as well get it over with, eh?

I haven't done too much organizing or cleaning today.. Just kinda resting before I have to go in and work the next 12 hours. Third Shift takes a lot out of me and has me totally messed up anymore. On my days off, I am up at all kinds of odd hours in the night.. Usually researching things on Pinterest or Google.. Watching video's on "How To" on YouTube.. etc, etc...It is not rare to see my lights on all throughout the night.. With a full pot of coffee brewing in the kitchen. Oh, I know.. i'm weird that way.. Thus the life of a third shift worker.. Us Night Owls...

Anyways, the title of this post is Podcasts.. So, let us talk about podcasts.. I was laying in my tanning bed a couple of hours ago.. I have my handy dandy "laptop" of course beside me on a side table.. I decided to use my computer for entertainment instead of my stereo while I aimlessly lay tanning.. So I pulled up IheartRadio.. And they have some very awesome Podcasts you can listen too.. I had no clue.. I mean am I seriously behind the times or what.. It was amazeballs!!! I could literally listen to my favorite subjects while I lay around.. I was tickled..

One that I found that wasn't on IheartRadio.. Well it might be but I didn't know how to search for it.. lol.. I just found her on a site.. Anyways she has some pretty killer podcasts.. and it was on A SLOB COMES CLEAN .. She has oodles and oodles of podcasts on time management.. (which I so desperately need to get better at) cleaning, decluttering.. organizing.. you name it.. It's there.. Love, love, love her site. Give her a listen.. you will be glad you did..

And then on my IheartRadio... I listened to a station under podcasts called "Pratically Posh".. Wonderful lil show.. Oh I love it.. it's a "Smart Girl's Guide to a Glam Life".. their motto.. and it really is.. It is jammed packed full of practical advice and tips to help you Glam up your life.. Without spending a fortunte.. Gave me some really great ideas and inspired me during my lil tanning session today..

Just wanted to pass along the goodies that I ran across.. I love finding sites and listening to Podcasts like these.. Just really gets the inspiration vibe juiced up real good, ya know.. What are some of the great Podcasts that you listen to?  and do you listen to Podcasts?? I always love listening to Dave Ramsey.. Man, I wish I was that good with money!!!

Well gotta run.. Time to get ready for work and go make that all mighty dollar $$$.. cha ching.. lol.. I wish!! one of these days I will have a better paying job.. But for now, at least I am working.. And the job I have is rewarding when it comes to helping other people.. I just wish they paid better. They really should considering..But I won't list my gripes here! I will RESTRAIN!!! lol.. Have a great evening yall!

Happy Days are here with my new "Happy Planner"

Hi gang.. Just had to let yall know I got my "Happy Planner" by MAMBI (me and my big ideas) today in the mail.. Oh I love it. It is so pretty!!!!

I got it off of  Blitsy (my referral link) .. for a grand total of.....$15.94.. Can you believe that price?? I think that is way better than paying $50 for most planners.. If you are a new customer to blitsy you are supposed to get $10 off your first purchase.. that is how I got mine so cheap.. It was originally $19.99 minus $10 new customer discount then add $5.95 for shipping.. = $15.94... you cannot beat that price.. Here is a quick pic.. I will load more pics of the inside later.. I'm so happy with it.
