January 1: Faux's Year of Living Out Loud/Tubshroom Recommendation




Well I'm back.  I'm hoping to post daily for the next year.  We will see.  Life gets to you some times, but this is my greatest intent, because through all my growth and learning I realize you do the best you can do.  Of course I'm already behind.

The idea of my blog will shift.  I will still recommend stuff, but also I will just give my ideas on living this thing called life and things that help me to do that.  I'm sure I will falter, but my goal for the year is just to be present.  Whatever that is.  Be here.  Be in a moment.  Let fear go because that is generally what holds me back.


I don't much believe in resolutions because I think they are setting yourself up for failure or at least perceiving it to be failure, so I thought I would be kind to myself and simply state what I want out of this year.

A few ideas of been swirling in my mind and that is that I'm tired of waiting.  I'm tired of waiting to live my life and for those people to do so with me to do so.  I've spent most of my life taking care of others so this year I plan to be a little more selfish or a better way of saying that is taking care of myself.  So I'm making plans and going ahead with them.



There is a quote that speaks volumes to me and has for years.  It encompasses this idea because I think truly not living your life to it's fullest is a form of self pity.  It is ugly.  It isn't sexy at all and in generally is old crap that holds us back.  In order to be you have to just sit with yourself in the moment.  Not yesterday.  Not tomorrow.  Right now.  So here is the quote.


No apologies.  I am going to live this life as fabulously as I possibly can.  That simple idea allows for lulls, but ultimately just sets a realistic goal that you do your best to do what is best for you.  So there it is.  To live my most fabulous life and to do so by not waiting for anyone else to do it.  This is about me.

So as you can tell the direction of this blog is going to change a bit.  I will still give tips of things I've tried and stuff I've done, but it is going to be focused more on just living, because to quote a very intelligent man...


So how did I start off day one of my most fabulous life...

With friends, a bag of Chinese Food that weighed the same amount as a cinder block and cuddling with my temporary puppy and long term cat Simba.

So Happy New Year!  Also I promise this will have recommendations of things that I feel are pretty great so don't give up on old FauxPrah.  Oh and here is one...

One of my best friends Ms. Lisa gifted her Favorite Thing to me today (since she had to miss my party).  Here it is....

The Tubshroom


I've also seen them at Target and Bed, Bath and Beyond

What is it?

A revolutionary hair catch that fits into your drain to catch all of your hair from going down the drain thus causing all sorts of clogs.

What does Ms Faux think?

Well when I'm not writing this blog I am a property manager.  One of the most expensive things you can do in your home is call a plumber for clogs.  Also one of the worst things you can do is pour corrosive materials like draino down your pipes as they cause major damage to not only the pipes but imagine what they are doing to the earth.

Ms. Lisa swears by it.  Ms. Faux has used hers and loves it. 

Alright, that is it for today ya'll but I have to power through 12 more of these but they should be coming out quickly.
