This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Philips I will admit that of all the personal grooming “chores”, shaving my legs is my least favorite thing to do. It’s time consuming, I often rush, and admittedly, don’t do that great of a job. When the opportunity came to try out the Philips SatinShave Advanced Wet & Dry Electric Razor, I jumped at the chance.

Our Vermont Get Away | MsGoldgirl
As you may already know from a few posts/Stories on Instagram or if you've already watched the Vlog on my YouTube channel, my husband, Michael, and I just got back from six glorious, sunny, perfect fall weather days in Southern Vermont.

I don't know if it's his background in the military or his training for preparing for trials, but this man has an inner travel agent that could probably plan the logistics to move an army. You can hear us … [Read more...]

This was our second visit to the Land of Enchantment, and I can certainly see why that's the state motto. While I'm not a big fan of winter weather, there is nowhere better to go during the ridiculously hot and humid Texas summers than to a higher elevation, … [Read more...]
