Anxiety

Most of my life, the anticipation of an event where I must be dressed up as always given way to that awful, sickening anxious feeling....Today, at 32, is still no exception.  I am co-host of many hosts and hostesses this evening for a wedding shower with a Stock the Bar theme...I have nothing to wear, literally...I'm stressing, yep, stressing...

Kroger clearance beauty 4/14/11

I think I lucked up on some good deals this week at Kroger on the clearance aisle..and also on the deli manager special case..

 

  Kroger clearance $10 OOP

$4.50 x 2 - $3/2 = $1 a razor
$4.20 - $2 = $2.20
$1.85 x 2 - $2.50/2 = $.60 a lipstick

I think the deli items came out to about $12.  I got rotisserrie chicken, Boar's Head Havarti cheese, corned beef...
