I've Got the Shopping Bug

After almost 4 years I have finally paid off my school debt and now have an extra $800 a month to spare. I've been putting money away religiously into savings and retirement, however, could not help but splurge a little yesterday. It's been a while since I've shopped so I deserve it heh.

My first big purchases after being debt free:

My last curling iron broke, so I purchased the Solia 25mm. I will be using it on my hair to see if it really gives me the Kim Kardashian curls I like, and will post a review.

Also......I managed to snag a rare Samantha Thavasa Hello Kitty bag!!!! It's a bag I've been wanting FOREVER but those bags are like $1200 on eBay. I got it for a steal for $200.

I've been pretty lucky this week! Hopefully it continues! Will post separate reviews soon!

Update on Life

Hubby left for Korea yesterday. I bawled my eyes out at the airport like I always do and came home, sat around and stared into space for an hour before going to the gym.

Some updates:

Had our vow renewal in March. It was a lovely day even though I was stressed the whole time and could not focus on one thing lol.

Gave away our lab because of food aggression issues. :(

Got a jack russell terrier pup to replace him. He's a smaller dog so I will be able to handle him.

Moved out of boring Idaho and am officially a Colorado girl again (at least until we find out our next duty station, so I am a Colorado girl for a year).

Joined a 24 hour fitness so I could continue building my booty. Yes, I have a booty building journey and have been squatting and lunging for over a year now. I will have to post some progress pics. I usually post on Instagram and Facebook as I can't be bothered to blog but once again I have all the time in the world now.

I am planning a trip to Seoul to visit my husband in August/September. Should be interesting, as I've never visited anywhere overseas other than the Philippines.

Also, planning our honeymoon to Honolulu in December! We will be having a photoshoot in a waterfall location and the beach 20 minutes away. Have to keep myself busy by planning every minute of our trip itineraries.

I've also been applying for jobs again, but we'll see how that goes. I HATE having to start over every time we move, but unfortunately it comes with the lifestyle of a military spouse. Can't complain though, at least I get to travel. Will update again soon. No promises though, I have a hard time keeping them.
