Hey, It's Okay Tuesday!

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about. You're welcome to join in and do something like this on your diary. Doesn't have to be on a Tuesday either.

----------------------

To have not watched the VMAs on MTV like it seemed my entire Twitter feed was doing.



To want to try a Brazilian Blowout for my hair even though it sounds a little scary.



To still not like working out but I’m making myself do it.



To be baffled that there are kids who are suing their parents for not buying them toys. Um, what?



To need to get my eyebrows done. There should be two.



To be glad that it’s supposed to cool down for Labor Day. These triple digit temperatures can get wearing.



To love candied yams so much. Especially when there are melted marshmallows on top.


To really need to make a button for this meme and a linky. Who makes good buttons and what linky should I use?



To be looking for a specific World War 2 print for my husband Tom. It’s called A Higher Call by John Shaw. If anyone sees it being sold, please let me know. I’ve looked online and it’s sold out everywhere. .

  1. Shell at Things I Can't Say (http://www.thingsicantsay.com/) has very regular memes. She has a weekly one plus a monthly one. Her buttons are really cute and are designed by The Frilly Coconut (http://www.thefrillycoconut.com/).

  2. Did you try this place: http://www.airartnw.com/a_higher_call.htm ? Or is that too expensive?

  4. I suggest you try threading your eyebrows instead of waxing or plucking. It does not hurt that much and it lasts TWICE as long.

  5. Regarding the VMA's - I didn't watch either but I just posted about it. I wanted to scream when I heard about the Jay-Z/Chris Brown story. So I did...in my blog.

    Seriously? Kids are suing parents over lack of toys? How is this even possible?

  6. I, too, am psyched for the temps to go down. 107 is too dang hot... Stupid summer in Texas. Totally agree..yams are delish. I need to get to plucking because my eyebrows are looking a little oscar the grouch-ish. Hope the eyebrow waxing goes well. And I didn't watch the VMAs either..seeing as we don't have cable.

  8. Ummm yeah let's talk about the kids suing their parents over toys. It's time to take our country back.

  9. I recorded the VMAs. It's a great sociology experiment. And judging. Lots and lots of judging.

  10. I heard about that lawsuit! Good heavens!

  11. I didn't watch the VMAs either, its just not my thing! Kids are suing parents over toys? What on Earth?!

  12. Oooo...a button would be good (my list is posted). My stylist keeps trying to talk me into a Brazilian Blowout or into trying it at home. I keep looking at the prices of the many, many products it apparently takes to do it.

  13. Nope I didn't watch either......I heard it was BAD!
    OH I would LOVE if you would get a LINKY for this posting! I do my ITS OKAY on thursdays but I'd love to link up and join yours on tuesdays.

  14. No VMA's for me either! And I need to totally get my eye brows done too!

    ReplyDelete
  15. do the blowout! I got it last week {from an Aveda salon} and I looooove it!!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Oh I need to get my eyebrows done too. I'd love it if you made a linky for this meme! I'd play along.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I don't think I've EVER watched the VMA's...

    *InLinkz is a free linky service.

    I am so embarrassed by my eyebrows. They're awful!

  18. Suing parents? Over TOYS? Dear Lord...

    I need my eyebrows done. Badly. And what's the Brazilian Blowout? Is that the semi-permanent hair straightening thing?

    ReplyDelete
  19. I loves candied yams too...especially with marshmallows...yum..now I've got a craving.

    Suing over toys? you've got to be pulling my leg.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I know that getting a Brazilian involves my girlie-bits and lots of wax. I shudder to think of what a Blowout version of this must entail!

    ReplyDelete
  21. My eyebrows a hot mess and I have been too lazy to do them. No shame, no shame.

    The only thing anyone seemed to care about at the VMA's was Beyonce's future spawn she announced on the red carpet. Really, Beyonce? The VMA's? You could have gone with something a little classier than that boozefest to announce it.

  22. Do the blowout! It will make your hair so much easier to deal with especially considering how hot it is there!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Brazilian blowout...makes me think of Brazilian waxing and OUCH!

    ReplyDelete
  24. "Eyebrows. There should be two!"

    I don't know if you were intentionally quoting A League of Their Own or not, but I liked it either way.

    I'm getting my eyebrows done Wednesday. They're starting to move independently of my face.

  25. That lawsuit just made me mad- took an appeals court to finally make it right. There is a Mr linkey that is free and nit bad

    ReplyDelete
  26. So some of the salons here in the DFW area won't do the Brazilian Blowout anymore because it contains too much formaldehyde. For real.

    Someone suggested threading your eyebrows, which is what I have done, but I still find it hurts like a murtherfurker. The bonus is that my skin doesn't break out like it does from waxing.

  27. I love this list!! I think it is more than ok to like candied yams! I love the ones my grandma use to make with apples, brown sugar and marshmallows! Extrmely healthy!!

  28. Good for you for still working out. Hope it gets easier.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I didn't even realize the VMA's were on.

  30. When you figure out how to make a button (free) can you do mine too?! No amount of google searching will help me figure out how to do it!
