It is the 27th Day of our lipstick challenge and thank God it is Friday! As we sit here lounging on this lazy Friday night, Mia has on Razzleberry by Origins and I have on Honeyed Bloom by Covergirl- a very nice neutral.
Since our last recap, we have both worn English Rose. Mia says that was her favorite color and the longest lasting and I must say it did have great staying power and went on like velvet. My favorite color though was Ladybug and that stayed on nicely too.
As I muse over the past week and a half, I am very happy to still be putting on lipstick every day but disappointed I did not do much with my hair besides pull it back in a knot. I definitely need to work harder at that but think my nerves got the best of me so I am cutting myself some slack. Mia and I only went to the gym two times BUT both times we did more than we had previously so that was a plus. However, I ate ice cream while watching TV in bed two nights in a row which really made me feel like Francine from Polyester and that is not a look I aspire to own. To make matters worse, this past Tuesday I went from eating chips and candy in the afternoon while waiting for Mia to get out of surgery to sushi, chicken strips, fries and then more fries to celebrate it being over before falling sleep at the hospital. Even though I kept my Chocolate Bronze lipcolor in my pocket and reapplied it liberally throughout the day, it did nothing to curb my appetite for carbs. I'm not going to fret too much because the surgery went well and we are out of there and safe and sound back at home and that is all that really matters. We have had two days to decompress so tomorrow we get back to action. Mia starts with her homebound school teacher and I am back to work! Happy days--and nights--are here again!
