Amazon Products To Help Pass the Time

-
Another week has gone by and we are all still stuck in the house, and it looks like we will be through April! Bearing that in mind, you probably went through my first guide of things to do while stuck at home by now (10 Ways to Stay Occupied During Quarantine). So now I thought that I would find some fun things you can order from Amazon to be shipped right to your doorstep, no direct human contact has to be involved! (Even though I’m sure everyone is probably ready for some!)

The first thing is an adult coloring book! There are all kinds of fun ones to choose from: drunk animals, Swear Word Coloring Book: Hilarious Sweary Coloring Book For Fun and Stress Relief, The Beauty of Horror 1: A GOREgous Coloring Book, Cat Butt Coloring Book: A Hilarious Fun Coloring Book for Cat Lovers… The types of coloring books are endless!
Adult Coloring Books


This is the one that I am ordering! :)



















To go with your new coloring book, did you know there are mechanical crayons? Neither did I. I will be ordering them and trying them out ASAP!
Crayola Twistables Crayons



The next things a dream catcher kit! I know that I am personally obsessed with dream catchers and think that it would be fun at any age to make one. This would be especially fun if you have kids though! Not only does this help kill some time and work your creativity, you have a pretty decoration out of it!
Craft-tastic Dream Catcher Kit



Find a puzzle or a LEGO set of something you like. They both come on all different sizes, complexities, and price ranges. For example, there is a LEGO set of the Friends ‘Central Perk’ building with over 1000 pieces! Or there is a much cheaper Avengers: Infinity War puzzle that’s 100 pieces. Easier to do and takes less time.

Avengers Endgame Puzzle














This next one is definitely unique, and one I think a lot of you will really like. This is a DIY Hanging Planter Kit. The only disadvantage to this is you do need paper towels for this project. I know that those are hard to come by right now so if you’re one of those people who has enough paper towels, I would give this one a go!

Get a tie-dye kit! I know when I was a kid it was the style to have tie-died clothes, then it kind of went out of style. Don’t worry though, this colorful style is back! Take plain white clothes and turn them into your favorite colors.
Tulip One-Step Tie-Dye Kit 15-Color Party Kit



Something that isn’t necessarily something to do with your hands but will definitely keep your mind occupied. Montague Island Mysteries and Other Logic Puzzles. This book is like a novel, but you also solve puzzles to figure out all the secrets of the mansion. I personally have not read this book, but it looks like something that is right down my alley that I would really enjoy.

Then, last but not least. Find some sort of devotional journal. I’m not going to link any particular one because everyone has different things that they need to work on and are in different places in their lives. There is one out there for just about everyone though. Right now while you are hopefully at home practicing social distancing because of the corona virus is the perfect time to really build and work on your relationship with God.
Devotional Journals List


Just a reminder that to try and shop local when and where you can. This time is really hard on small businesses and they need all of the support they can get. I know most store fronts are closed, but if they have a website, please check out a local businesses’ website before shopping amazon. I made this list based on amazon because it is something that I know is still available for everyone!

Dysautonomia Awareness Month

-
Image
Hello all! This month is dysautonomia awareness month! Now this is probably where you're saying dys-auto-what? This can get really complicated so I'm going to try to put it as simply as possible.  Dysautonomia is an umbrella term that refers to conditions which cause dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. I personally have postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome or POTS*. There are many other conditions that are under this umbrella, but I am going to keep the focus on my personal conditions.  *My POTS was caused by a genetic condition I have called ehlers-danlos syndrome, which affects your connective tissues.  So now you know what the word means, but now there is the question: What is the autonomic nervous system? The autonomic nervous system refers to all the body's involuntary functions, or the functions you don't consciously control. This means things like heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, vasoconstriction/dilation, pupillary response, sweating and more

My Top 10 Favorite Harry Potter Fanfictions

https://www.warnerbros.com/movies/harry-potter-complete-8-film-collection/ The Light by Everlaih  Hermione G, Sirius B, Remus L. Complete. Rated: T “Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of places, if one remembers to turn on a light.” During the final battle, Hermione gets sent back in time to the marauders time at Hogwarts to save her life. Now that she is there, she makes a life with them. She Didn’t Need to Be Saved by NineAnd3Quarters  (Fred + Hermione) Complete. Rated: T. "She didn't need to be saved. She needed to be found and appreciated, for exactly who she was." J.I.W I watched Hermione as she sat in the corner pretending to read a book. I say that because she spent most of her time behind that particular book examining page 214. For the past month she had been 'reading' that book and hadn't turned the page once.

10 Common Makeup Mistakes

Using an HD setting powder / a setting powder with flashback to an event/occasion using flash photography You have to be careful with setting powders when you are going to be taking pictures. If you watch beauty YouTubers, you may remember James Charles’ “Flashback Mary” situation as he likes to call it. There are a lot of setting powders that will cause flashback when taking photos with flash, or in other words, creating a white cast in the picture.  Now here are a few ways that you can try to prevent this from happening. Stay away from HD setting powders when you know that you are going to be getting photos taken. Always look at reviews before buying the powder, learn from other's experiences! Give it a test run beforehand - especially if it is for your wedding or something important as that. In the test run, do the makeup how you plan to the day of the event, then take photos with both flash and non flash in all different types of lighting so you can get the best idea on how not

2021 Summer Recap

  Hello all, it’s been awhile. I was just looking and saw that I have not made a post since May! It’s hard to believe that it was that long ago that I was compiling the list of movie recommendations for y’all (link to there here). There definitely would not have been such a long break had I been feeling better. Summers are consistently pretty hard for me. Part of my POTS is that I have a hard time regulating my body temperature, so me and the heat don’t really get along.  Some little things about this summer that seems worth sharing: In May I turned 24! We went to Denton Valley for my birthday and got some fresh pro duce for my dad to cook out on the grill,  and some other goodies from their store. I also updated my drivers license, and now it is the grownup horizontal one! I got allergy tested and we learned that I’m pretty much allergic to everything outside in Texas. Seriously, I’m allergic to pecan trees! We have one in the front yard and another one in the backyard, just like ever

My Mom LIVED at a Haunted School

  It is the beginning of Spooky season! I don’t know about you, but I am so ready for cooler weather, changing leaves, and watching Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown on repeat. To kick off Halloween season 2021 I’ve got a fun story for all of you! Whereas folklore and urban legends are always fun, my favorite stories are the ones where there is a personal connection. So you already know from reading the title, this is the story of my mom living at a haunted school when she was a kid. Now I do have to admit, the things that were attributed to the hauntings happened mostly in the years after she lived there, but not all. Even if she doesn’t have her own personal paranormal experiences there, I still think that this is a really interesting story.  Miller Hall In Albion, Idaho, there was a school that had a couple of different names and types of education over the years: Albion Normal School, or as it was named when my mother lived there, Magic Valley Christian College. You may recognize the n
