6 Months to Christmas

By -
Don't panic.  Just sayin' its 6 months to Christmas. :) 

Today is product day here at the EYES blog. ;) 

 Shout out to my stylist Shanelle.
I told her I wanted an "ashy" blonde instead of gold this time. 
Love it.  Much closer to my dishy water natural color. 
I use UNITE with tonifier shampoo, to keep the tone.
It works. I noticed a huge difference when I ran out last time. 
 This is a foot scrubby.  Sorry, I didn't keep the packaging.
Grocery store find.  Keeps my summery sandal feet looking and smelling nice.  
 Zach plays tennis with a man from China.  His wife works for Wrigley.  He gave him a case of their new gum.
I can't try it due to sorbitol issues, 
but everyone at work loves it.  I share. ;) 
I haven't found the correct way to really wear my bolder band. It does work well when I'm getting my 10,000 steps in.  
Speaking of, I don't get my steps in everyday. I am however, much more aware of my sitting time.  
Most days I get a good 8,000 steps in. 
Not good enough. 
Must walk more. 
As one of you said,  my wrist pedometer keeps me accountable. 
I haven't lost it yet!  Love the wrist style.  I lost all the clip ons with a few days in the past.  

Last Product update should involve knitting right?  
Karen has this Fix a Stitch tool.   I want one. I know they sell them at Three Bags Full.  
Handy little tool sure helps !
I know I can ask for it for Christmas

I was just thinking about that Christmas thing the other day. I'm thinking there will NOT be a lot of Christmas stitching this year.

I have so many other ideas in mind.

It is about that time of year I start thinking about finding the perfect gifts for the holidays and tuck them away.

You introduced some interesting products too.

My husband's birthday was yesterday and he stated that his birthday is 6 months to Christmas Eve and where we live it would probably be cold. We were hot and sticky yesterday when we were walking around.

I love ash blond and the picture is so pretty! Your Bolder Band will be pretty around your pretty ash blond head as you walk. I walked a lot of steps today. According to my Fitbit it was 10,000 plus. That's one, heehee.

I am a gum chewer so I must try Swerve. Thanks for the product reviews.

Great reviews! I want a new shampoo. Do you wash daily? I didn't have to when I was walking, but running makes for a sweatier head...

Love my BBand too, but I'm pretty sure I don't wear it correctly either.

And true confessions... I swore when I saw the title of your post.

I've never heard of the Boulder Band. I need to Google it later.

I haven't tried any new products lately because I rarely go shopping.

I think I have gained 10 pounds from all my World Cup sitting and knitting. I need one of those gadgets to shame me into getting up and moving around more. I think I know what I'm going to ask Santa for this Christmas.

Hey even if you haven't hit your mark, you are VERY aware of your sitting time. I think I need to get one of those....

I've already started putting gifts away for the holiday season - but I have a buttload of birthdays that month too - so if I don't start early, I go crazy

Fun post! I'm going to dye my hair this weekend. I am going every other time to the stylist. I think my natural hair color now is just gray. Fun product reviews! I like that there is a chewing gum with the name swerve. hehe.

(just another baby legging in the image. Using my socks yarns a little differently) I think that blogger may not have correctly counted all the posts I've written. I've been posting since 2004 so I guess it is possible. I'm not going to go back and count them all. It says this is post 987. So we'll go with it. Im having a little contest for the milestone, but I have had writer's block since I decided on the 1000th post contest. So to take the pressure off, we are just going to do this now. :) I get crazy with pressure around events of all kinds. I just do. To enter: Please please please only leave a comment about this post on this post.

If you dn't know anything about Lace, ask someone and share their knowledge. Do tell us who gave you this lace advice, to make it f...

This is a call for knitters to knit a baby blanket no bigger than a cookie sheet. Blankets will be distributed in the NICU where I work. We just don't get many blankets. We need them. Traditional baby colors will do, but we'd love you to branch out a bit. Use up those leftovers if you wish. You could win a lovely prize. All who send a blanket by November 1st, ALL SAINTS DAY, you angels you, will be entered in the drawing. Here are the rules: Blanket must be made of yarn which is washable. Sorry, Hospital rules. It cannot be bigger than a cookie sheet. Smaller is welcome also. That's it. Those are the rules. I'll post the prize by next week. Mail a blanket to me Kathy B if you need my snail mail address,email me at Harpnut@gmail.com
