Face Photo

Here is this month's face shot of me. I've just had my hair cut so feeling a little pleased with myself, although now it is beginning to kick in as to how much hard work it is to keep it looking nice. I prefer the straight look to the birds nest look, so I have to get up about 20 minutes earlier each morning so I can straighten it.... oh well, it's worth it.

I went and bought my piece of make-up which I am rewarding myself with this week and I purchased some mascara. I think it is the very first mascara I have actually properly paid for in my life! I hate paying for make-up as I feel it is so expensive and the cosmetic companies really cash in on women's insecurities. I have always seemed to inherit make-up one way or another through the years and as I don't really use it that much, it lasts me years. I was an Avon lady for a while about 10 years ago and through my commission I built up a little store of make-up (so I wasn't really buying it) and I still have my eye-liner now, going strong, not running out yet. My mascara, however, had died a dry and sticky death, hence the reason for the new purchase this week.

I have a feeling that my weigh-in tomorrow is not going to be all that good as I haven't really gotten into the flow of things this week. It feels like I have been eating all over the place in a random rather than orderly way and I'm not convinced I will have lost any weight, I may have even put some on. We shall see tomorrow I guess.

Signing off.
