The difference I just happened to remember. You see details to right
about how to improve things.

That is good to me even more.

my rosacea is flared up, have to go see the dermatologist again.
and it doesn't help that I have been picking....
sigh~
I look terrible and am embarrassed...and now I am going to have to slather on make up to give my in-service.....

why can't i just leave my face the ffudge alone ....

Bizi,

Remember that you are beautiful. Remember also that sometimes our bodies do things all by themselves -- even when we are tuned into them and paying attention.
I hope that you are happy with your in-service.

oh Bizi.

at least, we DO have make-up. so try not to add the embarrassment about looks to the existing anxiety. you can make your face look "normal" for the inservice and it will only be for half an hour, plus maybe an extra quarter hour or so if there are questions or you are asked for business cards, etc.

Speaking of which... DO remember to bring a stack of business cards. Come to think of it, i would not wait for requests but hand them out matter-of-factedly to all the staff members present, at the end of your presentation, when you are at the "you can give them my number" stage.

Anyway. About your looks. Remember you have a beautiful inner glow and that will radiate through. You also have a lovely smile which will decorate your face even better than the makeup.

love

I know the roceacea is a sore point for you. But I look at it a different
Way. If its still a little visible just remember its part of the problems
of getting older, like having to ask for help with the nails, like is
what to me the need for someone like you.

I have problems at times with mine too. But it doesn't seem to bother
me as much.

Well I am drinking my second drink at 5:15, dinner is made just am waiting on hubby to come home so I can pop the spaghetti squash in the microwave.
brown a pound of very lean ground beef and added a jar of cajun power spaghetti sauce and will have salads too.
Don't know when he will be home.
my face is a mess...it has been draining and crusting today.....very greasy from the make up and my face is over all oily...it was like my face was good for 2 months on antibiotics healing up etc. no real new break outs then about a week ago I started haveing a few white heads around my mouth then around my nose and now on my cheek again. I called the dermatology today. I was supposed to go see them after the antibiotics and start on a different anti biotic oracea or something like that. But no....I felt like I wanted to see if I could handle it with just the aczone ointment and my cerave cleanser.
nope can't do it...so am back to being desperate, I see them on thursday afternoon.
I just started today so that probably contributed hormonally and the added stress of this inservice.
sipping my mud slide....

Bizi,

That's good you have an appointment set for Thursday. Sometimes it is comforting to put yourself in the hands of the doctor.

Dinner sounds delicious.

Dear Bizi,

Best wishes for your inservice tomorrow!!!!

i agree the hormones probably pitched in re the break out.
i'm glad you got in to the derm for thursday anyway.

(((hugs)))

Just thinking of you for today and wishing lots of new outreaches,
I know the rocesea can flare its ugly head just at times we do not want, as if it feeds on stress.
But, pat a bit of powder to adhere the make up,
Remember, every single woman in front of you has something about their body that day they are not happy with. Even if they do look like a model, they still have an issue. Terrible hair day, scare, weight, not afford a nice outfit, feel you are so informed and they have so much to learn. Needed new shoes, forgot deoderant....all sorts of things.

They are not there to see madonna, they want to hear what you have to say. You are so informed and they will take away the needed material to make them a better provider.
Hugs

thank you for your kind words....I will let you know how it goes...I just want this behind me now.
My face is all crusted up this morning...sigh wish I was not a picker. I am going to commit to not picking after I see the dermatologist.
I already have scars from the last time this flared up.
thanks again for your support.
