That’s a wrap

I’ve seen so many bloggers talk about trying these. I myself have wanted to give it a go.

I saw a post about wraps months ago. I’ve been dying to try them. And I can’t wait!
I could go on about all the fabulous things I’ve heard.. or I could let a reliable source take over.
I’m letting Tara take over today because I know a lot of you are just as interested as I am!

Thanks so much for the shout out! I am so excited that I stumbled onto your blog…Its fabulous!

So, quick introduction. My name is Tara. I'm a super woman wannabe... I flutter here to there, trying to spread a little magic everywhere. I’m an incredibly busy working mom with a real life controlled chaos situation, but it seems to fit our family really well.

I work full time for a non-profit and have a home based business selling skinny wraps. I am actually retiring at the age of 37 in just a few months, so I am really excited about that!

So, how in the world did I get into this? I have never "sold" anything really. Except for yogurt at a health food store in high school...and then had a retail stint in cosmetics for a few months. I am not a real "seller" kind of person. I really just like to try stuff, and I wanted to try a wrap or two to get rid of my saddle bags. So here is a little story on how I became the Texas Wrap Girl.

It started with a cruise...a cheap cruise out of Galveston for a week…our first real vacation in years. We charged it because we were desperate to have some sort of vacation. So we went...and we went on the cheap. I went to the spa tour...entered to win something and saw this treatment they were doing. It was so cool! They paint you with some goo, wrap you up and in an hour, you shrink! Mind you, I've never been a "huge" girl, but I was once referred to as a "big" girl. I so wanted to win it, but no such luck. I was still really curious, but it was $500! Ouch...that was almost more than what we paid to get on the ship! No way would I ever have done that.

So we get back from our sweet little vacation, and I was still curious...could I get that wrap from somewhere local? Was it just that expensive because everything is so overpriced on the ship? Nope. It was still expensive…about $300. So I did what every super thrifty girl does. I googled how to make my own! I came up with nothing.
Except this little ad popped up and I clicked on it.

Who knew it would forever change my life.

What has changed in the past year? What made me go from ho hum to holy moly? Well, I used the wrap, I lost my saddle bags. Super happy about that… I even got up the courage to post a picture below. I quit poisoning my body and detoxed with our products. Lost 35 pounds, and paid off a ton of debt! We are going on a third cruise since the first one! But I am happy to say, this time, we are paying in cash! I bought a new car, sent my son to camp for the first time, and have forever changed other people’s lives forever. I can’t believe all this started with this crazy wrap thing…what an amazingly blessed year! I am still thrifty though...no cure for that I'm afraid.

You can’t blog with us!

I’m not digging all of these big shot bloggers trying to make these rules for blogging. I have read posts about how not everyone should have a blog. If you’re not a big shot blogger, like myself.. this post is for you. If you are a big shot blogger, this post is also for you.. but, none of you will read this. These are just some of the rules that I don’t follow.. Your blog will be judged by it’s cover. Have a perfect layout. If spending $100 to have some make a layout for my blog means you’ll read my blog and you’ll follow me.. then I don’t give a damn if you’re not following me. Respond to all comments left on your blog. It is important to respond to comments.. however, I do understand why people can’t always respond. Personally.. if you ask me something I most likely will respond. A lot of the time I get comments that pretty much all I can say is “Thank you!” to.. I mean.. I’ll absolutely always respond if you e-mail me.. or even if you comment on instagram.. I respond almost inst...

Friday’s Letters!

Dear Pictures Of Myself, Why do you always look so bad? And, no.. I am not saying I’m ugly or any of that.. so please, don’t jump down my throat about that. But you know how some girls look 100 times better in their photos than in real life? Well, that’s not me.. and people have had no issue telling me that. Which, I guess is better.. unless you only see photos of me.. ehh, whatever. Dear Blog, I will be spending some time on you today. Planning some posts, commenting on some of my favorite blogs.. all of that stuff good bloggers do. Dear Friday, I’m so glad to be seeing you! Next Friday I will be enjoying Chicago for the very first time at the Keane concert with the love of my life! I need to make you a very productive day.. since Thursday was anything but productive. Dear Lucas Blaze, Thank you so much for planning on booking our room today after you get out of work around 7am… You’re the best. Last weekend was so amazing. I love all of our fun little dates. Dear Dark Hair, ...

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...
