I got a surprise in the mail this month from Influenster, it was the TLC VoxBox for Moms ! How excited was I ? Yup super excited, I love getting mail especially when it's not bills. I love packages even more.
Want to know what was inside, of course you do otherwise you would not be reading this. I got the following;
Neosporin to go- Anyone that has a child needs this in their purse, diaper bag, car, bicycle basket, you catch my drift you just need it. Kids fall and you need to clean their scrapes, give it a little squirt of this, slap a band aid on and call it a day.
A coupon for Breyers Gelato Indulgences- The coupon was to get any flavor of my choose, I went with tiramisu and oh my word this is the BEST gelato I have had in a long time. It was the perfect texture, the flavor was spot on. I am hooked. It was just as good at the stuff you can get in the North End of Boston ( aka Little Italy )
Ivory Bar Soap- Personally I am not a bar of soap user so I used it on my toddler. It was gentle enough for her and she loved the fact that it floated. She actually thought it was a boat ! It was cute. And she does have real toy boats in the tub, I do not want you thinking I make her play with soap only or something !!
Avon Anew Reversalist Express Wrinkle Soother- Hmmm I do not have much to say about this. I really with I loved it but I am indifferent about it really. I tried it a couple times but did not notice a difference really.
Puffs to go with Lotion- Great tissues to have in your purse. They do not break and can take a beating. They do not leave your nose raw, trust me they were put through the ultimate test at a wake/funeral.
Shell Fuel Rewards Card- This little card is going to come in handy when we go on our road trip. You use it at Shell gas stations to save money at the pump however you can also rack up points while dining and shopping online, how many other gas reward cards do you know of like that ?!
Overall I am VERY happy with this VoxBox and so glad to be part of Influenster Nation !
Disclosure: I received all of these products for free and all opinions are mine.
Walk through life with me, explore new products. Fall in love with Lush and wax. Help me struggle with my eating habits. Just listen to me ramble and feel free to chime in. Welcome to the ramblings of Diane !

Argan Oil Hair Treatment and Elixir
First I would like to apologize for being MIA, I had been going through a difficult time and have been meaning to review this product for some time now.
With that being said I was sent Insta Natural Argan Oil Hair Treatment and Elixir. It's a great product that has many uses. Before writing this review I used it a few times in a couple of ways to get the full effect of it. Even after a few uses it doesn't even look like I touched the bottle, this product will last a long time, which is great because my hair soaked it up !
The first time I used it, I used it as a two hour repair treatment; rubbed some oil in the palms of my hands and coated it through my hair, through it in a bun and let it sit for two hours then shampooed it out. My hair was so soft afterwards. There was no greasy residue. It looked so healthy. I waited a couple days to use it once again, this time as a protective treatment when flat ironing my hair, since there is no spay nozzle on the bottle and you have to rub it it your hair then wash your hands in between ironing your hair it was a little bit a pain in your balls but it is worth it in the end. My hair was not fried because we all know the flat iron is terrible for your hair ! The shine I got was incredible...shine not greasy look ( big difference ) All in all I am quite happy with this product. Argan oil is great for your hair in general anyway :-)
I would like you all to know that I did receive this product for free, and was not compensated in anyway, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Starting yet another adventure
Tomorrow I start my new job, after two months of looking for and turning down a not so right for me job I found one that I think will be a decent fit.
It's at a semi granola but expensive grocery store which I am excited about, least I know I will be able to get my coconut milk coffee creamer that I have such a hard time finding ! And I was already told there is room for advancement working within the office from the woman that hired me ! Being in a grocery store is a comfort zone for me since it's something I am familiar with and heck I still remember the produce codes, lol.
I would love to be in an animal clinic or doing something with animals but in all honesty it's just not possible right now, maybe down the rode it will happen but for now I am happy with where I am. Wish me luck :-)

The joys of being single
When I first split up with my husband I was devastated now that I am coming to term with things I am actually learning that I like being single !
Let's think about together shall we; I do not have to share the bed, if I want to sleep on the left, I do it. I want to sleep on the right guess where I sleep...that's right the right side but most nights I am right smack in the middle of the bed with all the pillows and blankets and no tug of war session going on here.
There are some days where I do not feel like cooking dinner and I will just eat cereal or a salad, well guess what I do not need to worry about cooking for a significant other. I do cook for my child of course but she is easy :-)
I love my apartment it reflects me and only me, I did not have to worry or even compromise on decor, it was great ! I know I am sounding quite selfish and full of myself but I am the complete opposite, while married it was all about him and making sure he was comfortable, fed and cared for. Now it's all about me and the off spring. I only have myself to clean up after, and the kiddo but I wait till she is sleeping otherwise it's like shoveling during a blizzard, lol ( I love that analogy )
There are days where I am sad and miss someone there to cuddle with me and watch a movie or help carry the groceries in or just be there to listen and talk too but then I look around and see where I am now and think about how much I actually like living alone. And really towards the end of the relationship none of that stuff I miss was actually happening I was alone A LOT.
This has been sitting on my brain, why not unload it here it's the reason why I started this blog not just for product review it's to talk about my everyday living and thoughts and for me to well ramble.
Happy Friday.
