What a morning

Wow! Let me say this morning was the morning of all mornings. First, the power goes out, and this is bad. let me say why....Webb (my husband) is a saltwater tank freak, so he has a fancy tank all set up. When the power goes out, all hell breaks loose. Let me say we had maybe 10 gallons of water goes all over our dining room carpet and all over our kitchen. What's the best is that our tank is now on the wall connected to another apartment. But we became lucky ducks and no water went into apartment next to us. so reaching him was a sight. I tried to get on another wireless network from a local shop or whatever to text him. No wireless networks in range. So I had to find a phone ASAP! I went to the neighbor's house and used her cell phone. we have one cellphone we share. so he comes home from work, to become my knight in shining armour and check on his baby (his tank). Well most of the water went into the kitchen, and with half of my towels in the washer. I was limited to towels. but I did have flash backs from Hurricane gustav. If you didn't follow me from the hurricane, I'll explain next.

If you didn't follow me with Hurricane Gustav, it was a hurricane that hit Louisiana on September 1. Your asking why do I know the exact date..I was 38 weeks pregnant! So we were hoping I wouldn't go into labor with the pressure dropping so much. Well, I had JJ a week later. Well we were out of power for a week over here. No money b/c my husband just got laid off..(seriously), no radio, very little food, and a POS car. It was the hardest week of my adult life so far, but it was the best also. We got to spend time with Mason before JJ was born. I was miserable, we were miserable, but she didn't know what was going on. So the hurricane was a blessing in disguise. Then my brother in law hired my husband until he found a job and my father in law gave us his car for 150/month. So we had very little income coming in, but it was something. Don't ask why I'm putting this out here. so now we are ok financially, so i can say we are blessed.

so all is right in the world, so we think. but waking up to no power and a tank leak (again), can drive a person out of her mind.

New Channel



Hey guys! I made a new channel just for makeup and hauls only. Since I'm probably boring the guys to tears with my makeup and Lush talk, I decided to make a channel for that. but...the blog will be the same instead. so if they look at the blog, they can always check out the other entries and so on.

so subscribe to danistuttermommakeup!!!! Yes.....do it!!! and do it now!!! :D

I have plenty of videos that i saved from the stuttering channel, that I will put on there. I also made 2 new videos also. so check back during the week. I will be a posting fool!

I will delete danistuttermomcooks. no use for it, and don't have the time to cook b4 hubby gets home. so no videos = no happy viewers..means time to delete channel.

Interactive Stuttering Series #4

Hi guys! I did this video last week, was going to upload it this weekend, but things got hectic. I also was out in the middle of the sticks of Louisiana and had wireless for like a whole 30 minutes. WOOHOO!

So here is the questions...

1. What letters do you stutter on? If you haven't noticed in the videos, it's S, M, N, L, and those darn freaking F's are killer!
2. What words can you not get out? mostly words that start with an S and F. and if someone asks Mason's name..I'll say UM Mason..so everyone swears my child's name is PaMason. ah well...
3. What kind of reaction do people give you when they realize you stutter?
Sometimes I get understanding, sometimes I get shock, and sometimes I get laughter. When I get laughter, I realize Karma sucks, and they need to also. I don't get laughter too often, but you have those people who think it's funny.

I realize I make videos and get some views. I know I don't have over 300 subscribers, and many people don't comment. But lord knows how many times I get picked on a day without me knowing. I'd rather not know, and be left in the dark. but you know what, I'm doing this for myself and all stutterers out there.

I'll write another blog about my crazy ol weekend. :D and post videos sometime this week whenever I do videos.

This week! no videos.....

This week is what we call "hell week" at my house. Why must I say that right? wedding...and

Well tomorrow, we are having the carpets cleaned, so I'm getting caught up on like 100000 loads of laundry, and picking up things on the carpet. You may ask why am I getting the carpets cleaned this week of all weeks? Well, my husband and his awesome plumbing job and a little black kitty cat is all I can say. we had a 30 gallon tank on the floor full of water (don't ask). I walked into Mason's room and I thought Hooch peed on my floor. well, til I looked up at the tank and it was empty!!!! so yea it's nice and hard from all the saltwater. So we are getting our carpets cleaned....

this week...i have to go get my haircut, get Mason's hair trimmed, pack for like 2 days..and be in my hometown by 2 on Friday to try on my dress for my cousin's wedding that will be Saturday. then be at the church for 4PM on Friday for rehearsal. YAY! and do loads of laundry, and organized, and still do my ebay and mark business.

JJ is teething, and is about to push up a toofer or two before the wedding comes. I promise plenty of pictures of the wedding and family. It will be fun, but hectic b/c of everything. Hooch is going spend the weekend at the kennel, so he may hate me by Monday. so on top of sinus trouble, and dealing with a teething baby, and a demanding 2 year, I'm ok. :D

at least I've kept my front room clean for the last 2 days...i need and deserve a freaking cookie.

I'm officially a Lush Addict!!!



You can add me to facebook if you want under danistuttermom@yahoo.com but tell me how you know me..if you don't (like say via youtube) got it?, I will not add you.

I went to Lush again today and bought more than I should, but I always do!!!

Lush for those who don't know they are a vegan bath/body store. I love it! You can smell the store from upstairs. smells really good. :D My old boss is now the store manager over there, some maybe I should sweet talk her into hiring me one day.

First of all, thing I want most of all:

Mommy Gift

Things I got:

Angels on Bare Skin - I love this!! I've used it for a week now, and boy I can feel a difference in my face, and see a difference in my skintone
Imperialis
Breath of Fresh Air Toner
Butterball Bath Bomb - love this. makes your skin very soft
Ickle Devil Bath Bomb
Happy Pill Bath Bomb - it looks like a giant pill! so it makes you happy just looking at it. I bought just for the fact it was called Happy Pill, and we used it every day for 2 weeks by breaking pieces of it.
Too Drunk to *$)* Emotibomb - never used it yet, but I heard it was great for colds..so I got it for that reason since I have a cold
Up The Wooden Hill Emotibomb - makes you so relaxed you want to go to sleep. my husband loves this
Double Fast Luck Emotibomb - got it today as a free gift, and never tried it yet
Extra Virgin Olive Oil Soap - got it today b/c I love the smell. it does not smell like EVOO (sorry for the Rachael Ray talk), but it has an herbal earthy smell.
Karma Soap Sample - like the smell, didn't like it when I first smelled it but it's growing on me
Porridge Soap - it lathers well, but gimme a week and my tone might change, but guess what the smell is amazing. it smells like sweet oatmeal
Hot Milk Bubble Bar - my husband used this today and it smells good.
pop In The Bath Bubble Bar - got this for Mason's easter basket, so I'll let you know what I think of this
Floating Island Bath Melt - used this. I wanted to get dreamtime, but I wanted to try this. You put in the bath and it melts, so I broke off a piece. made me really soft, and it smells really good.
Hybrid Solid Shampoo - your probably thinking solid shampoo? well it's a shampoo bar pretty much. you rub on it your hair until you get a little bit of lather and that's all you need. they last FOREVER. I like this bar, but too bad I can't use it for JJ.
The Olive Branch - this would be the 20 dollar bath mason had. she smelled like pine tree in a forest for like 2 days, and also she was softy mcsoftenson
Cupcake face mask - can only get that at the store...

Your probably thinking DAMN girl you bought a lot of stuff. MOST of this was free samples and things. but I did buy a lot of stuff in the past 2 weeks, but I want to give honest reviews. I'm about to go try Cupcake.

If I wrote a list of things I want to try, I'd be here for another 2 hours just typing...but I want to try more than anything in the massage bars and buttercreams. :D
If there is anything you want me to try....I'll do it!!!! but i am picky about scents...but I'll try it

Stuttering Series #3

OOO this might be a good one?




What does your husband/wife/significant other/baby momma/daddy do to support your stuttering?





My husband makes me talk on the phone, because I'm not handicap he says. Even tho I hate the phone, he still makes me call. At first he was a little caught off guard, but he is used to it. He is pretty much supportive. He knows when I want him to finish my sentences, when I don't want him to. He knows when he can speak for me...when he can't. Some days I want him to speak for me, some days I don't. He understands that...and I think every stutterer has those days. I know I shouldn't but I do. so forgive me. :D

Who watched Tough Love???

ooo I watched today, and must say Taylor shocked me. She put her greediness aside (with a secret that came out last show), and had a good time. While Miss Airan (i can't spell so forgive me) was being slutty mcslutterson.

Yet with Taylor.....I guess more is yet to come!
Airan needs to let the trust wall come down. that's her issue. she's been hurt, built a wall, became a whore, and wants a respectable man to wooooo her. if you put your knockers out there and parade around there, no respectable guy will go for you without expecting something on the first date. She's a gorgeous woman and very smart. but with guys, she's as dumb as a rock. (who really thinks rocks are dumb...i don't..but you get my point)

The older woman (can't think of her name) that had the breakdown. I like her! When she went on the date with her guy...she was soo happy before..but after not so much.....but next week looks interesting.

I forgot the names mostly bc I do the reviews a few hours after. I blame that on being pregnant twice. one day I will get my names together.

I really love this show. The matchmaker looks almost like my cousin. You'll see pictures of my family when I do pictures of the wedding. :D

Well, that's all for now. We are about to watch Marley and Me after my husband takes care of his problem with his saltwater tank. He messed with it again and broke something. He always does. I guess that's an excuse just to mess with the damn thing. LOL

Mark Haul and Reviews again

I got my package yesterday, and did the video yesterday also. I got lots of things....
here are my reviews....also the reviews on the eyemarkers
  • Eyemarkers - I got them in Java (dark brown) and Jet (black). I love them. They stay for a long time. I love them and for 5.50....why not? right?
  • Cheekblossom - Its kinda like the smashbox mood gloss but we have the different ones, it's not for both. I love this b/c it makes me have a beautiful pink glow. this will also be different on everybody. so the swatch I made it saying what color pink it would be on me.
  • Glossblossom - same as abo ve!!!!
  • Lip Exotics - LOOOOVE these suckers! :D :D :D they are a lipgloss with more pigmentation than the Glow Baby Glow. They have that spearmint kick to it also. I got them in Pop, Rush, and Thrill. (swatches below) they do not come out that dark on your lips. perfect for summer!
  • Costa Rica Gradual Tanner - I'm not reviewing the tanner YET, b/c I've only had it for one day, but the smell is heavenly. I'm picky about smells if you can't tell yet. But this one smells like what you think of summer should be in a bottle. I love it. I'm buying a bottle for myself.

(in direct sunlight), glossblossom, cheekblossom, thrill, pop, and rush

(under my kitchen light), glossblossom, cheekblossom, thrill, pop, and rush

I will be doing tutorials this week also. :D might post them next week tho, but look forward to them!

Interactive Stuttering Series #2




I have answered this question a couple of times, so I want to know other people's experiences.

I will answer it anyway via this blog. :D

What situation and mood do you stutter your worst?
  • when I have to go to an authority figure (boss). Why? I don't know..itimidation
  • when I have to tell someone something they don't want to hear....fear and nervousness
  • when I have to think to tell someone something....mood..hell i dunno for that one
  • the phone with someone I don't know.....nervousness
  • with someone I don't know......nervousness again

What situation and mood do you stutter your best?

  • when I talk when I'm not thinking...i speak beautifully
  • when I'm mad

have you ever wondered why stutterers are scared more of the phone than anything? gimme your ideas why????

btw...who thinks that ordering a pizza via the internet or text message was the idea of a stutterer???? I DO!
