Sea Buckthorn Review

I was recently given the opportunity to try a product from Sibu Beauty. They have a wide selection of products on their website. They have various skin care products made from Himalayan sea buckthorn berry. The website states that these berries are good for hair, skin and nails. I was very anxious to give these products a try. I chose the Sea Buckthorn Body Cream. I am always up for a new body lotion. This body lotion was amazing. It smelled great. I was reminded of a citrus type scent. I got a lot of compliments from my family. One thing I really noticed was how soft and smooth my heels are. Honestly this is the first time in a really long time they felt so soft.


I can't think of anything I really dislike about this lotion. I want to try other products that they carry now. I was unsure about this because I do have pretty sensitive skin. This product has made my legs silky smooth. Now I just need to decide what I want to get next!! :)








I was given this product to review but the opinions stated are mine and mine alone. 

Gabbi the Princess

Gabbi really does believe she is quite the princess. She loves all the pink stuff, crowns and frilly clothes. On the same note she's quite the tomboy. That girl will burp or fart and just thinks it's the funniest thing on the planet. It's hard to not laugh while teaching her it's not nice to do that and laugh about it INTENTIONALLY. I understand those things happen but she does it on purpose and gets a kick out of it. Anyone else have a child that thinks bodily noises are just hilarious? haha Oh man. Who knew 4 years ago that's what I would talk about on my blog?

I have had 3 days of orientation on the unit now. By that I mean working on the floor as a nurse. All of those shifts were 12 hours so it feels like a lot more than 3 days. I work tomorrow for an 8 hour shift so I bet it flies by. I really feel like I have learned a ton. I have done so much in this time. I know I have a lot more to learn and it's overwhelming sometimes. I know I'm meant to be in this profession though so I pour my heart and soul into it.

I have some gift cards for a movie that I got at Christmas. I am just so unsure as to what I should watch. Any suggestions out there?

Orientation and A Review Coming Up

I started Orientation as a nurse this week. It has been a lot of long and hard days. It's not even physical work. I am listening to people teach me things for the most part and boy would I rather be on the unit doing actual work! I have been learning the hospital computer program which I already know well since I went to school there. However nurses from other schools do not know it so I have been learning it all again. There are new things of course that I am learning as a nurse that I was not doing as a student. It has been informative and I will take a l ot of this information with me on Tuesday. It will be my first day on the actual unit. I start my orientation on the floor that day. I am really excited but anxious because I will be working 12 hour shifts. I have heard horror stories about those shifts turning into 16 hours and really I do not think I can physically manage that. I just do not think I can. We'll see. I will try to manage my time well!

As for the review, let's just say I got a new product in the mail today and I am SOOO excited to try it out! As soon as I am ready to give my opinion I will be posting it. So be on the lookout for it soon.

I passed!

I'm now officially an RN. I passed the boards. I am officially RN, BSN. I'm pretty proud of my accomplishments. I've come a long way to get here. I finally decided to go back to school after already having a family. It was hard, but I did it. I then got sick and pregnant again. I took a little time off but went right back to it and this time with four kids! It hasn't been easy but yesterday the result of all my efforts came to me in the form of one simple word: PASS. :)
