Day 38

Snippets of random thoughts and .........things you know

You know things are bad when you look in the mirror and say," Oh, my God".

You know things are bad when your own dog isn't sure it's you.

You know things are bad when you realize you should have used facial masks that tied around your head rather than ones that wrapped behind your ears  because your ears are now protruding from your head at a 90 degree angle.

You know things are bad when you plan on making peanut butter cookies and end up eating the entire jar of peanut butter instead......twice.

Should I worry when I find my husband making a hand puppet, speaking to it and pretending it's answering him back?  Remember Topo Giggio?

Is it strange to get all dressed up as though you're going out to a special event when you're only going to cut your toenails? Because, in a way, it is an event.

Did you know that fingernails grow faster than toenails? See for yourself. Using a fine tip permanent marker, paint a fine line at the cuticle of your thumb and big toe.  Check the growth every single day for 2 weeks and you'll see I'm correct.

Just to mention.....

There likely isn't a woman who doesn't want thicker hair, or at least, the illusion of thicker hair.  I saw this on a "How To" beauty video on YouTube.

This is so simple.......tease the roots of your hair as much as you can.  Using an extra hold hairspray, spray the roots and let the spray dry.  Lightly brush the strands of your hair over the teased roots, being careful not to undo the teasing. Style your hair as you'd like and using a "Pick" to lift the top layers up.  You now have the illusion of a full head of hair.

Sometimes beauty tips offered on the internet should come with disclaimers

The video didn't show how to brush the tight, heavily sprayed, knotted  teasing out.  I didn't wonder about that.   Perhaps I should have.

It's okay.  My hair grows fast.  And I have wigs.  All is well, for now.

38 days?  Has it only been 38 days?
