Added 2 more Giveaways to the list, that I won't have to write reviews for. They are part of my stuff that I'm trying to reduce. A "beauty box" that includes items for your skin. Stuff like a name brand face & body sunscreen, A name brand hyaluronic acid aqua booster & A name brand moisturizer.
The 2nd is a piece of clothing.
So 6 upcoming giveaways. The first is up... Faux lashes, the next is a makeup bundle, then there's a crystal bundle, & A Google Nest Giveaway.
I'm also selling some stuff on hippiedippie.net and paying to advertise on different venues. In 3 short months, my life will change. You have no idea how bad I want to start my journey now but will wait until after Halloween. I have much to do before then. It's a scary yet exciting adventure. I'm renting A few storage units, to store my personal stuff in but won't have room for random stuff.
My storage facility is in Auburn/Opelika AL. Auburn is where I spent 4 years of my life when I went to Auburn University. I have property there, where my sister use to live. It's now being rented by a college professor and her family. They are very nice people and don't mind random inspections. My sister complained that this & that was broken but when my maintenance guy went to fix those things, they were never broken. You expect that kind of treatment from other people but never family. They received A rent check from the government to pay me the back rent they owed me, for a year... But decided to buy a brand new vehicle instead of paying me. Yes, I'm still pissed off. I evicted my sister even though she was seven months pregnant. Her husband goes to trial in October. The government got pissed off too. I would normally have to pay taxes but did not pay the $2,300 I normally would have, for that 1 property, in 2021.
I worked my butt off to buy that house!! I don't remember any one helping me, either. It was me alone, raising 4 girls & 1 was an infant. I literally cringe, every time some MAN claims that raising his kids is "HARDER". Bullshit. Try raising kids THAT ARE NOT YOURS!! The kids were owed money from the Federal government because their daddy was killed in war AND their mom died from cancer.... But did I ever receive A check? NO!!! The girls aunt on their dad's side, didn't want anyone BUT the infant & stopped me from getting anything for 5 years.
By the time I did receive their checks, 5 years later .... I had already learned to be self sufficient and put that money directly into A college savings plan, for all 4 girls. Gabby didn't get as much as Alexie because she was 17 when the checks finally started coming. I still found grants & scholarships for her extended education though, so she didn't feel the pinch that much. Her major? Graphic design. She works for a large production company now.... In California. Married with zero kids, says she doesn't want them.
Funny thing is ... I never wanted them either.
But that's not what happened, is it? Nooooo.
I'm proud of all the kids I adopted, all 9.
It wasn't easy,
💋
