“Can I get everyone to please turn on your cameras?” Ugh, my least favorite thing to hear when I hop on a Zoom meeting at work lately. So, the results of the Q4 Gallup survey here at Tabs the Cat Industries, LLC got Rosie very concerned — so concerned that she’s increased the number of required weekly Zoom meetings from four to 14, so now we have at least four Zoom meetings per day! BRUTAL. 🙄 Man, Rosie can be a really tough boss. She’s just all business, all the time. Granted, that’s why she’s such a butt-kicker in her professional life, but it makes it tough if you’re one of the regular staff. Tabs, on the other paw, was just better at making everyone feel like a valuable, trusted member of the team. Some bosses are just better at leadership, you know what I mean? Marnie’s having a tough time adjusting to the new changes to the meeting policy. She’s been stressing out about it. Luckily, she forgets there’s a new policy after a[Continue reading...] The post Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 878 appeared first on Makeup and Beauty Blog | Makeup Reviews, Swatches and How-To Makeup.
So…what is the Monday Poll? Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. What’s your favorite punctuation mark? I’ve got a major soft spot for the semicolon; my heart also loves an em dash. 2. Are you just as shocked as I am that it’s going to be 2026? Seriously, how did an entire decade pass since I gave birth to Connor? Time is a crazy ride, man. 3. What sounds do you hear right at this very second? Children screaming (with delight), Marnie Mae barking and chasing the previously mentioned screaming children, and the robot sounds of laser tag toys. 4. Did any of your pets attack or ruin your holiday decorations? Ugh, these two fur kids decided this was their year to break sh*t. Rosie gnawed on the tips of some pine branches. Marnie Mae decided that she[Continue reading...] The post Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Vol. 894 appeared first on Makeup and Beauty Blog | Makeup Reviews, Swatches and How-To Makeup.
So…what is the Monday Poll? Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. What holiday beauty gifts have you bought? I picked up a lovely Jo Malone perfume duo, a couple of Laneige skin care sets, my favorite body scrub and a tea tree oil foot spray, among other things! 2. And were any of those beauty gifts for yourself? LOL, surprisingly no! I did buy an azelaic acid serum for myself, though, while I was at Ulta. 3. What’s for breakfast today? Trader Joe’s Protein Pancakes. Have you tried them? They’re so good! 4. Have you baked anything for the holidays? Not yet so far, but next weekend, I’ll be doing either cookies or brownies. At least, that’s my hope. If I’m completely frazzled, then I’m going to give myself the option to tap out of that yearly tradition[Continue reading...] The post Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Vol. 893 appeared first on Makeup and Beauty Blog | Makeup Reviews, Swatches and How-To Makeup.
So…what is the Monday Poll? Excellent question! It isn’t, contrary to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. Have you finished your holiday shopping? Have I even started holiday shopping yet? LOL! I’m really behind this year. 2. How early is too early to put your pajamas on in the evenings? I feel like anything before 4pm is a little too early because there’s technically still light out. Any time after 4 is acceptable, though, since the sun sets around 4:50-ish around these parts now. 3. Something you’d like as a stocking stuffer? I could use a few new beauty tools, like nail clippers, tweezers and the like. It’s time for a refresh, methinks. 4. Something creative you enjoy? Even though I haven’t been hanging out here on MBB as much, I still really enjoy the creative side of writing. 5. Do you prefer colorful[Continue reading...] The post Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Vol. 892 appeared first on Makeup and Beauty Blog | Makeup Reviews, Swatches and How-To Makeup.

It’s just a list of more or less random questions I’ve been posting on this blog every Monday morning for the past quadrillion years (since 2007). 1. Something you need to do for beauty maintenance soon? Oh boy, my upper lip could use a wax. LOL! If I let it go much further, I’m going to look like a bad guy with a twirly mustache. 2. Something nice that’s beauty-related that you’ve done for yourself recently? About a month ago, a friend of mine and I went to the Cavallo Point spa in Sausalito. I can’t wait to go back! 3. What’s a word that you like? Honestly, I have so many. Off the top of my head: jaunt, effervescent, soliloquy. 4. What’s a funny little habit that your pet has? When Rosie sleeps, she snores loudly. (It wakes me up sometimes.) Marnie likes to bring her favorite tennis ball outside; she doesn’t actually[Continue reading...] The post Makeup and Beauty Blog Monday Poll, Vol. 891 appeared first on Makeup and Beauty Blog | Makeup Reviews, Swatches and How-To Makeup.
