Vlog: Busy Days, Getting Bangs, Picking A Wedding Date, Prepping For A Pop-Up Shop

Today is the day i'm at my hair appointment and i am doing it. I literally don't care. I don't think it's impulsive, because i've thought about it for so long, but i'm doing it i'm getting bangs guys. I am just so excited i literally have saved so many pictures to my phone, and this is less about doing something, impulsive and more about standing up to something that i'm afraid to do. Um and getting bangs is something that like is exciting, but it's also scary, because it's such a commitment, but i did buy these like clipping bangs on amazon. I seriously should have started this vlog before i left the house. I could show you guys, but those bangs they're, like those wispy bangs that are like longer on the side. They look super cute when you put your hair up and i feel like, depending on how i style them, i could probably like style them to the side, but they're like this long, like you know a little bit past your eyes, so they kind of like it'll. Take some getting used to obviously with them kind of being in my eyes, but the look is just so cute and i'm like what better time to do it now than like in the fall season. I feel like that's when everyone does something like cool with their hair. You guys remember when i cut those side bangs look how long they are now they were like around like my nose and they grew super super fast, and that was just like a few months ago. So i know that if i don't like them, you know it won't be long before they grow out. So this is it we're doing it. I'M in here now we're taking out my extensions and just like moving them up and then we're gon na cut the banks. So so i faced my fears and i actually got bangs and i really love them. They'Re super thin and wispy, and i have barely any time to look at them and appreciate them, because i am already driving again heading to the wedding venue to drop off our deposit. We officially secured our wedding date, i'm on my phone now, because i didn't want to bring my camera because it wouldn't fit in my bag, and i didn't want to just awkwardly be carrying my vlog camera, but we just went ahead and paid them the deposit so That date is set and i'll tell you guys we're getting married on february 4th 2022. So it's super super soon. We have very little time to prepare, so the wedding planning is like on now um, but i already gave you guys a tour of this in my vlog when we first, you know viewed this place, but here's a little look at it. I love all these lights. Yeah the groom's sweet, so that's where the guys will be - and this is where we will say i do so beautiful, okay, i'm back home now and i did just change into some sweatpants. I just really wanted to be comfortable because i'm about to put some work in to my office, as you can see, i have literally so much inventory to go through it's crazy and this friday is black friday and i'm doing a pop-up event. So it's just time to clean things up. I need to get like a head start on this week. Okay, i bought these printable labels on amazon and then i just created these cute little stickers using canva, and now i am just printing them using my printer so that i can put these on the bags for when people check out at the pop-up. I just thought this would be like a cute way to customize the bag, because i don't have stickers with my new design on it. I still have the pink ones. Okay, so here's what they look like after printing they're. Definitely not perfect they're, not as good as if i have them ordered from like a print company which eventually i will do, but for now this will work. And then i also got these just like round white labels by avery and i'm just opening up the pdf document on my ipad and i'm basically just going to make these like price stickers for black friday. So i'm going to just like price these out and then stick the stickers onto the tags. If that makes sense it's much later now and i got so much done - i already feel a lot better about the pop-up event, just getting everything that i needed to get done like kind of hung up, because it's black friday, i'm gon na, do like some pretty Good sales, so i also want to get out some of the older inventory and do like huge markdown sales on that, so i can get rid of stuff, so i'm gon na have to buy more hangers. I think anyway, it's almost 6 30 and chad and i are about to make dinner, and i want to quickly thank hellofresh for sponsoring today's video, you guys already know. I worked with hellofresh a ton in the past and chad and i have just used hellofresh a ton ourselves because we genuinely love, learning new recipes and it's just so much easier than having to come up with things and go grocery shopping. So it's like honestly perfect for weeks like this week when we didn't make it to the grocery store, so tonight we're making white cheddar wonder burgers with caramelized onions, special sauce and old bay fries and their recipes are super easy. All the ingredients are listed on the side, it comes with everything and it's all pre-portioned chad's cooking those burgers. I want to tell you guys why we love hello fresh so much especially during this time of year. The holidays are like the most stressful time of year, especially in florida. I just feel like everyone's here and we have like so much tourism, their traffic so much worse and everyone's jobs are so much busier. It'S just such a stressful time of year and using something like hellofresh takes away all of the difficulty of having a grocery store and plant meals. You just pick out your stuff online and he'll refresh. Delivers it a really fun and exciting way to find new meal ideas and they have lots of different meal options. So if you're someone who's trying to watch your calories, they have a calorie smart option if you're pescetarian vegetarian or if you're like us - and we just want traditional meals with like a protein, a side and a veggie and all the produce that comes in the whole. Fresh meals are sourced directly from farmers, so it's always fresh and the meal we picked for tonight is burgers and we actually chose the four serving options. So we're gon na get four burgers out of this, which is perfect for us, because it's just us two, but then it gives us lunch for the next day. So that's a little hello, fresh hack, just increase your serving size, and then you get lunch. The next day we already used a bunch of the ingredients so far, but another thing i was going to say that we really like is how all of the ingredients are pre-portioned like this. So you never waste things. Chad and i can be wasteful because it's just two people, but with helpless fresh. We end up getting exactly what we need for that meal and then, like i said, we end up getting leftovers out of it, but you can't just like buy a four pack. It'S usually eight pack of buns and then we end up wasting some and like same with a big bag of cheese like all the ingredients are pre-portioned. So it's really nice. If you don't want to be as wasteful chad we're going to do a taste test. We just finished: look how yummy look at those caramelized onions. You ready ready, oh my god that is so much more juicy than on the grill. This is very good. Here'S the special sauce which chad's not a big fan of sauces, but i love sauces um. So good, really interesting, like i've had ketchup and mayonnaise together before, but not with mustard and old bay added it like gives it a spice. Thank you again to hellofresh for sponsoring today's video obsessed with this meal and we're gon na be making the other one tomorrow. It'S like pork, chops or something which i'm super excited for.

You guys can probably barely see me right now, but it's almost 8 o'clock and chad and i are being young and cool, like the young crowd going out on a tuesday night. Some of his friends from work invited us to go out and we never ever ever go out, especially during the week so uh. Here we are we're gon na go and grab a drink with some of the guys from work. I guess one of them got promoted to lieutenant lieutenant yeah. So that's like super exciting. I mean that will be chad way down the road like he just became engineer so, but that would be the next step up from that right, because your engineer, yeah yeah, the next step is lieutenant yeah good morning guys it's the next day - and i am at My appointment in naples to get my final eyebrow touch up, so i think i mentioned the last time when i got my touch-up appointment that i wanted to bring my eyebrows in more and i ended up doing that, but because we brought it in the second time, Like during the touch up and not the initial time, we do need to go over it one more time. So i have another appointment today and i'm excited to like finalize my eyebrows, tomorrow's thanksgiving. So it's gon na be like a crazy hectic on the roads and chad and i literally still have to go to the store today at some point and i have a photo shoot later. So it's gon na be a really busy day, especially with just tomorrow being thanksgiving. It kind of like takes one day out of the week for me to prepare for black friday. So i feel like today is basically like my last day and i still have a good amount of stuff to do. I have to like tag and price things still so just finished with my eyebrows and i'm obsessed. They always look so so good. When i get finished, but we did like let the pigment sit on for a little bit longer and then she like went over a few spots a bit more so that way hopefully um when it heals this last time, like will be perfect and they're gon na, Like they're definitely a little darker than i like, but you know that's how it is they will lighten up. So i'm gon na go grab a coffee before i get on the interstate to head home and we got some work to do today. You
