Default This day has all the earmarks
...of being a long one! I mistakenly passed by a mirror a few minutes ago, and AAAARGH! Death warmed over. Something the cat dragged in.

I shuffled into the kitchen and said to Bob, "I look terrible!"

Now the thing he might have said would have been, "Why do you say that?" or "No you don't" or possibly, "You do seem a bit tired this morning."

What he said was "Yeah."

*sigh*

Sometimes confirmation isn't exactly what you want!

Awww...B2Y. Don't despair!! If your husband is anything like mine was I could have walked in and said "Tim, there's a hippo in the pool - do you mind if I fish him out and feed him breakfast?" He'd have said "yeah..whatever you want."

If it's any comfort I don't exactly look my best first thing in the morning, either!!

Well, B2, I guess I've just resigned myself to the fact that "it is what it is". I do try to look my best - for whom I don't know....I guess for me. Maybe the cats??

I guess I'm just to the point of "what you see is what you get." I have a hard enough time trying to find the energy to look my best. If anyone doesn't like what they see I guess they can look the other way. I do the best with what I have to work with....and that changes everyday.

It's what's in your heart that matters....everything else is just aesthetics.

I hope your day gets better! You are so beautimous to us!
