Hey @mutualofomaha I genuinely want to know how yo Hey @mutualofomaha I genuinely want to know how you think I can safely work as a dental hygienist with extremely noticeable hand tremors and shaking happening all the time.

How can my short-term disability claim be denied while saying I’m still capable of doing a job that requires me to use extremely sharp dental instruments underneath people’s gums every single day?

If I were your dental hygienist, would you feel comfortable trusting me to clean YOUR teeth while my hands are shaking like this? Because I don’t.

I’m not trying to get out of working. I’m trying to protect my patients and myself while I figure out what is happening to my body.

I’ve spent over 10 years working as a dental hygienist, and right now I physically struggle to hold my instruments and perform my job safely because of these tremors. I still don’t have answers or a diagnosis, and I’ve been waiting weeks for a brain MRI to hopefully help determine what’s going on.

But in the meantime, I’m expected to just go to work and continue using sharp instruments in people’s mouths like nothing is wrong?

This is so incredibly frustrating. I want to work. I WANT to be able to work. But I also want to be able to do my job safely and responsibly.

This is what happens when the healthcare system and disability insurance system fail people who are genuinely struggling to work.

If you’ve ever dealt with a denied short-term disability claim, disability insurance, chronic illness, unexplained symptoms, tremors, or being told you’re “fine” when you know something is wrong, I’d love to hear your experience. ❤️

I just wish I could sleep as peacefully as Toby does for ONE night. Must be nice to have a life where your only responsibilities are deciding when it’s time for your next nap or when you’d like a little snack. 😴🐾

What a life that must be… I’m sure it’s absolutely EXHAUSTING. 🤣

And naturally, he has to get his beauty rest after stepping directly on my face at 3 AM to wake me up. Because apparently my sleep schedule is interfering with his. 😂

Cat life really is something else. 😹🐈‍⬛

PSA: If you want the best faux fall mums, don’t wa PSA: If you want the best faux fall mums, don’t wait… they sell out every single year! 🍂

I know it feels a little early to be thinking about fall decor, but trust me on this one! These realistic faux mums are one of my favorite outdoor fall decorating finds, and they always disappear fast.

Last year I finally swapped my real mums for faux mums, and I haven’t looked back! 🤎 I could never figure out how to keep real mums alive. Too much water? Not enough? Either way, mine never seemed to last more than a few weeks. 😅

Now I can decorate my front porch for fall with beautiful artificial mums that look incredibly real, save money in the long run, and I get to reuse them every single autumn. It’s honestly one of the best fall decor investments I’ve made!

So tell me… 🍁 Are you Team Real Mums or Team Faux Mums? I’d love to know which you prefer (and if you’ve actually mastered keeping real mums alive, please share your secrets! 😂)

I’ve been seeing these viral amber glass pumpkin jars EVERYWHERE, and instead of spending a ton on them, I decided to make my own budget-friendly DIY version! 🙌🏻

I found these super cute amber pumpkin jars and added battery-operated tea lights inside, and y’all, I’m OBSESSED with the cozy glow! 🧡 They’re the perfect easy fall decor idea for adding that warm, moody amber glow to your home.

And honestly, I think I like this DIY version even better because the jars are still totally functional! If I decide to switch things up later, I can use them for Halloween candy, small treats, or other fall decorations. 🎃🍬

I’m convinced amber glass + fall decor = the coziest combination ever. 🍂🤎 There’s just something about that warm amber color that makes everything feel extra cozy!

Why do husbands suddenly develop selective vision Why do husbands suddenly develop selective vision when they get married?! 😂

Anyone else’s hubby like this?! Because explain to me how this man can spot a golf ball from 100+ yards away… but somehow can’t find the ketchup when it’s literally RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS FACE in the fridge. 🤣

Apparently, he has 4K vision for golf and absolutely ZERO vision for anything I ask him to find. 😂

I guess when it comes to golf, he really knows how to lock in… but when it comes to finding something in the refrigerator? Suddenly he’s legally blind. 💀

Husband humor + marriage humor is truly unmatched. 😂 Tell me I’m not the only one married to a man with selective blindness! 👀

I like to tell myself that baking is therapeutic for me, and sometimes it really is! But other times, I’m already in the middle of 17 things and somehow decide that this is the perfect moment to make a homemade dessert from scratch. 😂

Like… am I stress baking or just creating additional stress for myself?! 😜

But honestly, I really do love baking. There’s just something about measuring ingredients, mixing everything together, and ending up with something delicious that makes all the chaos feel worth it. 🤎

Please tell me I’m not the only one who uses baking as therapy and then immediately regrets how much work I just created for myself. 😂👇

From the spooky decor and cozy haunted vibes to the shelves packed with thrillers, horror, and mystery books, this place is an absolute dream if you’re a book lover.

If you’re visiting Broadway at the Beach in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, don’t skip this hidden gem. It’s one of the cutest bookstores we’ve ever been to, and it’s the perfect stop for anyone looking for unique things to do in Myrtle Beach. And it’s conveniently located at @broadwayatthebeach too! 

Now tell me… if you could only leave with one thriller, which author are you grabbing first? 👀📖

Beauty Gift Guide

I thought it would be fun to share a little beauty gift guide with you all for some Christmas gift inspiration. I’m sure we all know someone who enjoys makeup and beauty products, like myself, so I figured I would share a few of my favorites to help y’all out if you are searching for the perfect beauty related gift!

Beauty Gift Guide

Face Products

I have been loving Tarte products here lately and they are pretty new to me. I started using Tarte’s Face Tape Foundation this summer and I am super impressed with how full the coverage is!

I was using the Urban Decay Stay Weightless Foundation before switching over to this product. However, I did not like that one as much.

I preferred the older version of Urban Decay’s foundation so I am glad I made the switch over to Tarte!

Another Tarte product I love is their Shape Tape Concealer. When used in combination with their foundation, you literally can’t see any blemishes at all on your face. This is a power duo and would make an amazing gift for someone.

The last two of my favorite face products are both from Urban Decay. I love their bronzer/highlighter/blush palette.

I think all the colors in this go perfectly together and I love how it all comes in a convenient case with all three products together.

I have also been loving their new Brush Off setting powder. This is also a newer to me product as I have only been using it for a few months now.

But I do enjoy using it and I think it gives your face the perfect finishing touch. I also love how they offer it in a universal shade, that way you can try it out if you are unsure of what color tone would suit your skin best.

Eye Products

As far as eyeshadow palettes go, I am a huge fan of Urban Decay. I have gotten almost every single one of their new palettes when they come out, and I have always been super impressed by them.

My most recent palette purchase was their Honey one and I got that one last year for Christmas as well. I have been using it almost every single day since, and I have not ran out of any colors at all!

It’s really amazing how long their palette’s last and that’s why I think they are definitely worth the money!

My go to product for eyeliner has always been Stila’s Stay All Day Liquid Liner. It is so easy to apply and wears well into the day.

I also am impressed with how long this product lasts too. When I first bought, I thought it would dry out super quick.

I was used to using eyeliner pencil before I made the switch over. But I quickly came to realize it lasts just as long as my pencil eyeliner did!

Hands down my favorite mascara is Lancome Monsieur Big. I never thought I would be one to pay $25 for mascara.

I used to always just buy the drugstore version. But y’all, let me tell you this mascara is so worth it. It makes my lashes so long and I can always tell such a huge difference after I apply it!

Another thing I like to splurge on when I can goes in combination with my mascara. It’s their CILS Booster Mascara Primer.

When used in conjunction with their mascara, it really results in longer and fuller eyelashes. Definitely worth getting both in my opinion and would be an amazing gift for the beauty lover you know.

Lip Products

I am not huge on lip products right now with masks and all, I find that it is kind of pointless to wear.

But I used to wear Stila’s Stay all Day Liquid Lipstick all the time before all this corona craziness happened and I love it so much.

It really lives up to its name because once you put it on, it’s not going anywhere!

Skincare Products

It’s no surprise that I am also including some of my favorite skincare products on this beauty gift guide.

Y’all know I love me some TULA skincare and all their products are made from superfoods and probiotics so they are wonderful for your face.

They are also cruelty free as well so I love supporting products like that.

You can also use my code 15CHARITY to save 15% off anything on their website too. I would definitely recommend their face primer.

That stuff lasts forever and it really helps your make up stay perfectly in place all day long. Another good one is their face cleanser too.

I listed all of my favorites above so be sure to take a good look around there and see what piques your interest too.

TULA Skincare
I just love all of TULA‘s amazing products! As well as Antique Candle Co too!

Conclusion

Well I hope this little beauty gift guide of all my favorite beauty products was somewhat helpful for you too! Do you have any favorites that I haven’t listed on here?

Let me know if you think there is something that should definitely be added to this list and I will check it out!

However, I think all these options would make a perfect gift and would really make a beauty product lover very happy!

Usually, I look for eco-friendly or organic products but you can’t always find every product in a green version.

Hey @mutualofomaha I genuinely want to know how yo Hey @mutualofomaha I genuinely want to know how you think I can safely work as a dental hygienist with extremely noticeable hand tremors and shaking happening all the time.

How can my short-term disability claim be denied while saying I’m still capable of doing a job that requires me to use extremely sharp dental instruments underneath people’s gums every single day?

If I were your dental hygienist, would you feel comfortable trusting me to clean YOUR teeth while my hands are shaking like this? Because I don’t.

I’m not trying to get out of working. I’m trying to protect my patients and myself while I figure out what is happening to my body.

I’ve spent over 10 years working as a dental hygienist, and right now I physically struggle to hold my instruments and perform my job safely because of these tremors. I still don’t have answers or a diagnosis, and I’ve been waiting weeks for a brain MRI to hopefully help determine what’s going on.

But in the meantime, I’m expected to just go to work and continue using sharp instruments in people’s mouths like nothing is wrong?

This is so incredibly frustrating. I want to work. I WANT to be able to work. But I also want to be able to do my job safely and responsibly.

This is what happens when the healthcare system and disability insurance system fail people who are genuinely struggling to work.

If you’ve ever dealt with a denied short-term disability claim, disability insurance, chronic illness, unexplained symptoms, tremors, or being told you’re “fine” when you know something is wrong, I’d love to hear your experience. ❤️

What a life that must be… I’m sure it’s absolutely EXHAUSTING. 🤣

And naturally, he has to get his beauty rest after stepping directly on my face at 3 AM to wake me up. Because apparently my sleep schedule is interfering with his. 😂

PSA: If you want the best faux fall mums, don’t wa PSA: If you want the best faux fall mums, don’t wait… they sell out every single year! 🍂

I know it feels a little early to be thinking about fall decor, but trust me on this one! These realistic faux mums are one of my favorite outdoor fall decorating finds, and they always disappear fast.

Last year I finally swapped my real mums for faux mums, and I haven’t looked back! 🤎 I could never figure out how to keep real mums alive. Too much water? Not enough? Either way, mine never seemed to last more than a few weeks. 😅

Now I can decorate my front porch for fall with beautiful artificial mums that look incredibly real, save money in the long run, and I get to reuse them every single autumn. It’s honestly one of the best fall decor investments I’ve made!

So tell me… 🍁 Are you Team Real Mums or Team Faux Mums? I’d love to know which you prefer (and if you’ve actually mastered keeping real mums alive, please share your secrets! 😂)

Why do husbands suddenly develop selective vision Why do husbands suddenly develop selective vision when they get married?! 😂

Anyone else’s hubby like this?! Because explain to me how this man can spot a golf ball from 100+ yards away… but somehow can’t find the ketchup when it’s literally RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS FACE in the fridge. 🤣

Apparently, he has 4K vision for golf and absolutely ZERO vision for anything I ask him to find. 😂

I guess when it comes to golf, he really knows how to lock in… but when it comes to finding something in the refrigerator? Suddenly he’s legally blind. 💀

Husband humor + marriage humor is truly unmatched. 😂 Tell me I’m not the only one married to a man with selective blindness! 👀

POV: You’re overwhelmed, so naturally you decide t POV: You’re overwhelmed, so naturally you decide to bake something completely from scratch… because adding more work to your plate seems like a GREAT idea. 🤣🍰

I like to tell myself that baking is therapeutic for me, and sometimes it really is! But other times, I’m already in the middle of 17 things and somehow decide that this is the perfect moment to make a homemade dessert from scratch. 😂

Like… am I stress baking or just creating additional stress for myself?! 😜

But honestly, I really do love baking. There’s just something about measuring ingredients, mixing everything together, and ending up with something delicious that makes all the chaos feel worth it. 🤎

Please tell me I’m not the only one who uses baking as therapy and then immediately regrets how much work I just created for myself. 😂👇
