    I love watching you on PTL.

    You never answered heather this morning. How many inches of snow did you get?

    I got two right today. I'm proud of myself! Especially since I don't know much about baseball 🙄😒😕😑

    Shout out to my big sister who texted me with hair advice! Thx!

    Here’s what I used. Find it all on my YouTube channel youtube.com/post/Ugkx9hToAhxVKKAeEQ6tLfiyKssiDUvPTYGY?si=uwu8nS-n0rZPns_P now!

    You look amazing!

    HOW DO YOU get the gray out of your hair at your hairline? That's amazing? Not that you're not gorgeous WITH the gray, but for media? Incredible.

    Beautiful no matter What you do.

    Beautiful Like always!

    You look great!

    My all time fav jewel, pearls and gold...niiice😁

    Beautiful!

    PTL day, you look beautimis! xo

    We all must learn to age with grace for ourselves and eachother. God reads the heart, so should we.

    lovely both ways.

    The biggest difference I see in the photos is your smile. Your naked smile feels happier to me. You have the same beautiful face with or without the caked on makeup. Makeup just enhances the parts that you want to pop,I guess.

    I think you should let your hair go gray ,beautiful silver color!!

    You clean up well!!!

    I adore wearing pearls... I always have! They look lovely on you, Dr.Lori! ❤️

    You look beautiful!!

    Beautiful and what kind of pearls are those?

    Beautiful!!! Did a makeup artist apply your makeup? If you did I want an instructional video!

    You looks great.

    Beautiful without makeup and with makeup! Shine on Dr. Lori !✨️

    Dr. Lori, you always look great. 😀❤️

    You are great natural and with make up as usual!! 🙂 have fun!!

    Spent today shoveling out, chatting with thrifters on video calls and talking about snow totals nationwide. My Hair is a 911 situation! #shopping #snow #hair ... See MoreSee Less

    Comment on Facebook

    Shout out to my big sister who helped with hair advice.

    Still time to sign up for tomorrow night’s How to Sell Old Stuff for Profit class on Zoom. Visit events page on my website.

    Yup, here where we moved to Manor, Tx it’s been ice cold at 14 over night, heavy sleet and dripping our faucets!! Hugs!! Travel safe for the show!! 🥰❤️🥰

    Do you have any brown eye shadow. Try that

    Your loved because of you not your hair

    In Minnesota, we had no snow but has been very cold and still cold. The worst was last Friday, bringing dog out in the morning it was wind chill of minus 45 degrees.

    Dr. Lori if you go sledding, make sure you use a tube because you love your hips. Trust me on this

    There came a time when I said enough is enough and quit dying! It's salt and pepper now! Never regretted and never looked back!

    I think you should go natural

    It really is SO PRETTY. I’ll bet anything that you have a fabulous vintage scarf or special hat that you can use. Life is TOO SHORT, my friend, we must have fun with every moment we have!! I can’t wait to see what you choose! (Image is not mine, just for reference 🙌🏻)

    That's why I finally quit coloring when I turned 50.

    I bet mine is bigger than yours….i had to reschedule to Feb 2….ugh

    You can wear a headband or a scarf as a hair band it'll cover it up trust me I've been in your situation before😉👍

    Wear a cute hat

    Hoping everyone stays warm and safe. I switched to gray hair for men color - lol. It fades slowly so no more hair color line emergencies 😆😆😄

    I'm sure you'll look great. I turned 61 and my hair became color resistant. I would color it every 3-4 weeks and it did not stick. I gave up. left my gray/silver/white hair come in. It's so much easier....But, I'm not on t.v. See you tomorrow. FYI Loreal hair color spray is great!.

    Relax and take a break

    "911 Hair situation!" 🤣

    Don't know what's worse, all the snow or the -15 degree weather with -45 windchill. Yikes.

    Get ready for the brutal cold 🥶 Brrrrrrrrrr!

    More snow next weekend!

    LMFAO .... talking about the accumulation. Ditto! I need a haircut. I haven't had one since August!!! I even dyed it to cover the greys, then trimmed.

    Brown eyeshadow dabbed in the needed areas with a big makeup brush.

    Grow it out. If I had nice grey, I would.

    Watch the new video at youtu.be/o3DSa75x00o to see my finds.

    Watched 🙂

    Nah, you were great. Especially liked the symbol thing! 😀😃

    Hey, I’m in Renton. We could hit 20 or so thrifts tomorrow. I know them all.

    Were you at the Seahawks game?

    There are some terrifying Goodwills over there...I refuse to go to the Everett Goodwill and the large one in downtown Seattle. Some very close calls that gave me a little PTSD. 😅 When the employees tell you you should head home cause its getting dark....you immediately head home. Come over to Wenatchee and Spokane we have really nice stores for thrifting! Apple Annie's in Cashmere is a hit with every one.

    Ah I was there on Saturday and was trying to channel my inner Dr. Lori! lol

    Some prices are way too much!

    I got a good joke coming on how narcissists manipulate a person and trap them in a environment to manage and deal with all their problems, the 1st thing narcissists do is lie and makeup things about the person and spread rumors to everyone the person talks to and narcissists have their own group networks! Unfortunately narcissists can be anyone even so called family! 😇🫡🇺🇸🌎🗽

    Stopped by the Italian grocery for my favorite quick lunch—Caprese salad and pickled eggplant. Mangia! ... See MoreSee Less

    Comment on Facebook

    Never tried them the eggplant pickled but I have tried them fried and stuffed

    Oh, yumm

    It looks like you are enjoying the food. 😀❤️🙏

    That looks good...Get home and be safe ...

    I used to go to the Italian store with my Sicilian friends and we would get octopus salad

    Delish!❤️🤣👍

    I made pickled egg plant. Wow what a process!

    Looks good!

    Love pickled eggplant! So good 🙂 Enjoy!

    I've never eaten eggplant anything. It looks good I'd try it. This morning I went for the hot chocolate it's freezing cold.

    👍👍☺️🇺🇸🌎

    Are you out in this weather? Hopefully you went out yesterday!

    Yum! 😋

    How did you travel in the snow

    Oh Please !!!!

    When?

     I’d like to try pickled eggplant!

    Mangia bene!

    I have never had pickled egg plant. Sounds good

    I love Caprese. I have a fit too because my fav ice cream is Spumoni. It's nowhere to be found down in SC. Publix had for short time then poof gone.

    Hum

    Xo

    OMG!!!! Just sayin'

    My thyroid meds ruin my nails —brittle and dry—so I keep them short and painted. What do you think of this color? I’m ready for spring, I guess. #makeup #chanel #nails #snow ... See MoreSee Less

    eat more Jello--it strengthens your nails!

    Looks good. 😀❤️

    Very pretty!

    Love the color. I did not know that about thyroid meds I been on them a long time and never realized that might be causing the problem because my nails used to be long .

    Looks really good!

    it's pretty! My thyroid PROBLEM screws up my nails!! Not the meds.

    Gel polish ruined my nails. Never again!

    You would look good in any colour

    The color is a bit gray in my opinion. Nice smoothness and shine though. I prefer nude or bold classic red.

    I love that color! It’s a nice neutral shade for any time of the year.

    I think they are nice

    Love it! Giggled yesterday watching your videos. It was a good way to ride out the snow storm. Thanks for all the advice. Found a Blue Ridge sunflower bowl this week because you told me what to look for.

    Very pretty.

    I love the color! Very chic! (PS I’m on thyroid meds, too, and a daily folic acid supplement has helped so much).

    I like it!

    Love it!

    My nails are the same way & I never knew that about my thyroid medication. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Nice! How was Chanel nail polish? Love their mascara

    Beautiful 👍

    Collagen powder everyday in your coffee! Totally works

    Love the color!

    They look so pretty. And, I love the color!

    Pretty, but you deserve a little more color.

    Oh that is a lovely shade of purple! Love it!

    The color is really nice

    Italian desserts…which one did I choose? Any takers? Got a favorite? ... See MoreSee Less

    Comment on Facebook

    I choose number 2 but i wanted them ALL!!!

    Always the cannoli!

    Cannoli

    Bet you chose the fruit, but my favorite is the Canoli 1 or #7 😂

    Oh wait, I scrolled down!!! Whadya get?

    I want them all!!!☺

    #2

    The cannoli

    I’ll take one of each…🤭

    Cannolis are my favorite

    3!

    Please come visit Elizabethtown, PA. We have a French pâtisserie, Valosh Pâtisserie, a delightful creperie called Piccola Stella, an antique store, and a couple of interesting vintage sellers (including my little spot, RELIQ).

    2

    That cannoli is truly the champion of Italian desserts! 💌

    Cannoli

    Cannoli, but will.take.a sampler tray of everything.

    Do they make a sampler platter?

    Cannolis all the way

    1,9

    Canoli? Always one of my favorites, but the fruit tart looks good to me today

    #1

    I would pick one of each! At least a bite!

    The cannoli!!

    #1, but for me #4!!

    Not sure I've ever had REAL cannoli. I'm from Michigan though I did have one Italian aunt and she was a good cook. My uncle met her when he was overseas in World War II

    Bobby Bones is worth the trouble! #baby #shopping #nashville ... See MoreSee Less

    Comment on Facebook

    Im from Tennessee, Thanks for the compliment. Love you!!

    I don’t trust the post office to deliver anything.

    Know the voice…Oh my gosh didn’t recognize you in the hat!

    I will take a look in the bushes.

    We can all get crazy at times.. You can only do what you can do...baby baby where are you...Hope you fine them..🙃

    Please be safe with this bad weather going on.

    I love your sense of humor! 😊

    Welcome to my world .... been there done that. Have you seen the videos on crates bought from usps. They video the unpacking of those crates, some do. You might catch the blankets on you tube. Good luck with that.

    If it were Fed Ex you would never see it again 🤣

    Same happened to me a couple of years ago. Shipped a quilt my mom made toy nephew in Texas. Well it went everywhere before he got it. It went to Florida and then to Chicago. He finally got it like 2 weeks later!🤦‍♀️

    Good luck! When we weren’t receiving any RSVP’s for my daughter’s wedding, started calling and realized over 1/2 were never received! It was odd…people out of state received theirs but no one in her home town did! (Toledo). I hope you have better luck!

    omg! i sent maternity clothes to my daughter in montana one time, got one digit wrong on the zip code. the box traveled (mind you i’m in idaho) to new york and like hawaii and all over the midwest. after about 3 1/2 months i got the package back. she of course didn’t need maternity clothes by then haha. nobody in all of the post offices it went to ever looked to see that the box said Billings, Montana on it, or think let me look up that zip code! no lets just ship it around! where is peoples common sense????

    Good that you found laughter in this frustrating saga...

    Postal service isn’t what it used to be unfortunately. I’ve had several Mia deliveries in the past couple of years. This was unheard of ten years ago.

    Please let us know if it's ever found!!

    I love Bobby Bones!

    Your baby blankets are beautiful - I hope Bobby eventually gets his!

    I hope you find them. That is a lot of work to be lost. Someone will enjoy them.

    On a different note...the color of your hat is great with your skintone! If you are thinking of a big change ie..color n cut, to go with your new you. Dark Grey and shortened cut will look great on you.

    Not having patience at a time like this does not pay off, You get more bees with honey, & if you have a sense of humor about it The people will put more of an effort to help find it!, Slow down people& relax life isn't perfect! Dr. Lori I hope it all works out, What a lovely gesture! xo

    I love how nice you told this frustrating story! I hope the baby blanket is found!! 🤞

    Babies need warm blankets! It's cold!

    WHERE OH WHERE COULD MY PACKAGE BE?📦📦📦📦 📦 🤔 😩

    Praying it will soon be found!! Those baby blankets you make will be Heirlooms one day so he can add this story to the documentation of its history for future generations to know just how special it is!!!

    Hopefully the package wasn’t left by the mailbox. We still have mailbox pirates. My son in - law’s aunt made mittens , scarves ,and hats for his children. Package probably didn’t fit in the box. Left at the foot of the post, we think . Daughter asked a neighbor if she’ d seen it as their boxes were side by side. She really blew up for no reason. We always felt she took it. Back in the early 2000’s when things weren’t able to be tracked as they are now. Have several fam members on my Amazon acct. all packages come to my house. No problems with someone coming along and helping themselves. Can’t see anything from the road. Sure hope they get the blankets.
