Sally Hansen Salon Effects
This past month, I received a free sample of Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail stickers to evaluate and review from Influenster.
I've tried multiple brands of nail stickers, and so far, these have lasted the longest. 12 days, without even using a topcoat. Looks like the retail price is around $10, so not awful. The only negative I'd have to say is ( Read more... ) -

I mentioned the feds' Direct Loan program, so I'm posting the details to help others.
If you work in a non-profit or service industry, after 120 (10 years) of on-time payments, your loan balance can be forgiven. There are restrictions to this.

But just wanted to say that the last few days, my tsh has started dropping, and I'm EXHAUSTED. I'm trying to work all day, but it's obvious this is very difficult, so I think next week may turn into half days. The good news is that it means my treatment shouldn't be delayed and my first blood test is Monday to see what the numbers say ( Read more... ) -
Upcoming treatment
I'm trying to post frequently on my thoughts and such about what's going on and what it's like right now as a cancer patient, both to help myself, to keep my friends updated, but also just to support others in the future if needed....so I'm keeping all these posts public. I don't know if they'll ever help anyone other than me, but you never know ( Read more... )
