check these out! I paid $7 and they're normally $29- and it was free shipping.
sign up at Ebates.com and put in JC Penney as the store and see if you can beat that! Received standard shipping in 2 days. seriously was easier and I didn't have to use gas or pay for a sitter but MOST importantly I will get a check in a few weeks .....or less because I used Ebates ;) I know you guys think I'm crazy but for the past 2 years I been working this. My stress level is better and all my stuff will be delivered to my door cheaper ;) and a check will follow ;)

Why I Love Ebates.com
needless to say- between no gas usage, mostly free shipping but more importantly A CHECK sent back to me for shopping is why I should have done this earlier through EBATES! I'm getting smarter.....as my dumb ass brother says lol- JK Randy, love you ;)

Stay Out Of My Stuff!
After many years of sharing my cosmetics with all my girls just to apply my own in peace, I realize I've given them a license to destroy and help themselves to whatever. Now it's my turn.....I'm going to salvage what I can and start looking for the deals. ;)
Estee Lauder Michael Kors Special Offer
Michael Kors Cosmetic bag with lots of color!
purchase worth $170.00 but-
$39.50 with any fragrance purchase at Dillards
Estée Lauder Blockbuster Color Stylist Special
Nice deal to get in on and they have some left. If you don't like everything in here, you can always wrap and gift to someone. Makes nice stocking stuffers and it's a value worth over $340.00 My mother would always buy these sets for me as a teen to get me started on good makeup. Nice ;) and more than just a gift.$57.50 with any perfume purchase at Dillards

Victory of Light Expo
I spent a weekend with the kids partaking the many dimensions of http://www.victoryoflight.com/ Victory of Light Expo . I've had the pleasere of this for the past few years and I can't tell you the excitement the girls and I get when the mail comes with the info inside for the upcoming show. It's always a priority to make it there and hopefully for the entire weekend. Seriously, since I love my STAYCATIONS and can't muster the money to take the kids away and leave the dogs, maybe I should just reserve a weekend at CoCo Key across the street?!
This sort of thing has been one of my passions for as long as I can remember. I've been drawn to this type of mental healing and positive flow of energy. I can't tell you how many times I was a gypsy or crytyal ball reader as a kid for Halloween. I must have used the same skirt my mom made me for a few years. Strips of different kinds of material and some little heels we bought in New Orleans on a trip to visit my uncle Robert. Ahhh, the good ol' days that leave the ever lasting impressions. Almost like my free spirit attitude in high school was perceived and deemed a questionable label like many other things people are undeducated about or a feared deep down for the same reason. For me, it was just a problem with committing to anything other than a travel size product or huge carry-all bag. Now, it's a matter of my cell phone and lip balm. Bringing my kids are a given :)
I set out specifically to go to a seminar called Channeling Your Spirit Guides. It was written to be in room 101. Now if anyone knows me, I've got this pretty much planned and mapped out but by the time I get anywhere with all my girls, I'm running..........and tunnel vision is all I have going for me. Well.... and a little speed in my step ;) So quickly, along with my good friend Denise, 5 of my girls ages 12-2 yrs., we grab a back row seat praying............"Dear God, please let the kids be good and if they're not, please let us sneak out quickly!"
About 10 minutes into the seminar, Denise and I look at each other. OMG! I think we're in the wrong room! Turns out wrong seminar-right room. There are no accidents! Besides, the kids were being extraordinarily good! So we just go with it. A little more talk and the meditation CD comes on. No....are you kidding me? How we gonna do this? Anyone with kids knows things can change faster than a blink of an eye but again, we just go with it.
Before I know it, everyone is in their own world and all is very quiet. It's peaceful and the kids are calm and sitting still. The baby, on my lap, is about asleep, AGAIN! She'd already had a nap in the car right before we got there so this is highly irregular. I'm doing my best to relax, and doing well, but I'm certainly ready to spring up out of there should someone start up I can't wind back down! My oldest was starting to poke the back of the chair that belonged to the man in front of us. She didn't realize he could feel every time she stretched or moved and I'm not sure how long she did this....ooooopppps! All is going well and we're winding down to getting back in reality ;( when my 4 year old falls asleep........standing up! This went on for quite some time until it was completely time to wake at which her hands were just moving and she was so peaceful. I guess she just wasn't ready to get back to the REAL WORLD...LOL! It didn't take me long to purchase the CD. We've tried our own meditation routine at home but this guided one was a huge success. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone!
We brought our lunch so we went to the car and ate. It was just an all round peaceful day. There were several seminars we wanted to go to but it's just impossible to do them all and with kids knowing all the items for sale, especially the jewelry, I didn't stand a chance. I carefully picked the next seminars and was fortunate to get another great ones, Ron Muskopf. I'm posting the pic of him with the lights on the side that look like their crosses.....but they're just ordinary old lights. He was very down to earth and funny with his knowlege he shared. The kids enjoyed it too!
Face painting was a huge hit and very reasonable. The ladies were so personable and freindly. Mostly everyone there is someone I'd love to know or spend time with because we all have the same agenda. It's just that vibe and you'd have to know it to understand but it doesn't take long to figure out a good feeling. I can remember my ex flipping a bit about the whoe PSYCHIC thing since he grew up Catholic. It made the experience for me an everlasting impression on how it can be if you have that fear of the unknow but now I think even he has learned what makes you feel good can't be all that bad!
We packed up and went home saying how we couldn't wait to go again........tomorrow! I knew I was on my own though. However, I have a babysitter, Alyssa, that loves doing the things we do so we called her and made a plan to go, shop and face paint while I go to another seminar. I was wanting badly to see Victor Paruta in his Psychic Seminar. Again, I ran down and mapped my escape from the kids so I could go. Alyssa came running blocker for me and grabbed a front row seat! Unbelievable...me, a front row seat and no kids?! I'm telling ya, the weekend was a slamming one for me. I taped the whole seminar and by the time I was finished, the kids had another round of face painting!
On our way out we stopped by a Tarot Angel card reader ;) Always nice to end the show with a little deep stuff just to connect all the dots before going home to wonder what it was you were planning to do all along this lifetime. I have to say every year gets better and better and I'm looking forward to the next show already. Thanks Mr. Victor Paruta for putting this whole thing together.....now next time could you please pick me for the FREE READING?! ;) Better yet, teach me how to do it myself!
