Cheap Chica Find: Joy Tissue Holders

Saw this yesterday at Mercury while buying MB”s migraine meds:
joy tissue canisters 2, by bitsandtreats 
So cute! And it’s only Php35! I checked at Landmark Super today but they don’t have these canisters.
The only thing I don’t like about this is the tape that they use to seal the top.

The print sticks to the edge of the cover. But I can live with that. I only saw 2 designs so I got them both.

On a side note, if you have moderate to severe migraines, you might want to ask your Neuro about Lyrica. MB’s neuro suggested he take this at night when he gets a migraine attack during the day to prevent further attacks the following day. It’s sort of a happy pill. It makes you sleep very soundly. I tried this for my polymyositis and it works. It’s non-addicting too. But you do get very vivid dreams. You’ll be able to remember most of your dreams when you wake up. = )

Oh, and one thing more. If you regularly take Ponstan SF and Lyrica, you can ask your doctor for a discount card. It’s a lifetime discount card but it’s only limited to about 20 pieces or so a month. Huge savings, I tell you. We save around Php40 for just a few pieces of meds. You save more when you buy more.
Happy Sunday everybody!

    Thanks for visiting Mia! I've only seen this at Mercury. They don't have it at Watsons, Beauty by SM nor Landmark.

Soul Notes: For Your Journal Tonight

Come sit with me for a while. I have my journal open, and tonight I’ve been thinking about something I suspect I do more often than I realize. I turn healing into another thing I need to accomplish. I want to know when I’ll be over something. When I’ll stop thinking about it. When something that hurt will finally stop hurting. When I’ll feel like myself again. And somewhere along the way, healing quietly becomes another deadline. Another invisible date on a calendar. Another thing I can somehow be late for. But maybe healing doesn’t work particularly well under project management. Maybe there are things I will understand quickly and things I’ll have to revisit again and again. Maybe I’ll feel completely fine one day and unexpectedly tender the next. That doesn’t mean I’ve gone backwards. It means I’m still moving through it. I remember one day, many years ago, when I had fibromyalgia. I lived in constant pain. I just couldn’t get a good day. And then one day, in the office...

Used to the Last Drop: The Ones I’d Already Told You About

  There’s something particularly satisfying about finishing a product you’ve already written about. Not testing it. Not forming first impressions. Not wondering whether I’ll still like it three weeks from now. Finished. My Molang Honey sheet masks and this body scrub both made it all the way to the end. (Finally for the Molang sheet masks, right?) I’ve reviewed both before, so I won’t review them all over again here. But perhaps using something until there is nothing left to use is its own kind of review. Beauty products come through my bathroom rather frequently. Some are lovely for a week. Some get pushed to the back of a shelf. Some simply stop working for me. And then there are the ones that quietly disappear because I kept reaching for them. Maybe an empty container is the shortest review of all. I liked it enough to finish it. If you want to read my thought about these products, just type them on my search bar. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E...

The Pleasure of Leaving It Behind

  I really liked this dress. Enough that I stood there looking at it for far longer than necessary, having that familiar little debate with myself. It was black. Simple. Very me. I could already imagine how I would wear it. There was only one problem. The fabric was thick. And perhaps in another climate, or another version of my life, that wouldn’t matter very much. But I live in the Philippines. We’re going through El Niño. Heat and I are already not particularly good friends, and my histamine sensitivity has made me even less willing to wear something that might leave me uncomfortable simply because it looks good. Still, I stood there. Because sometimes walking away from something we like is strangely difficult, even when we already know it isn’t right for us. We start negotiating. Maybe I’ll only wear it indoors. Maybe the fabric isn’t that thick. Maybe I’ll regret leaving it behind. Then I realized I was trying awfully hard to convince myself to buy something my body had alrea...
