I really don't mean to sound crabby, but lets face it, some mornings are harder than others- and I sometimes can't help but feel that it is pre-cursor to my day. Shall we begin? My hillbilly downstairs bathroom is so small that the sink is outside of the bathroom. Legally- it is not a bathroom if the sink is not in it. YAY for tax reasons, but super hillbilly none the less. And really no offense to hillbillies- I come from a long straight line myself. So, as I am carefully trying to get my expensive rosacea moisturiser out of the tube- I squeeze a tad too hard and a stream of it SHOOTS out steady line that goes across the sink and about 6 inches on the washing machine. Oh did I not mention that my washer and dryer are right next to the sink... which is much better than when we had the washer ,dryer and LITTER BOX next to the sink, because as you will soon read, I drop things.... So what is a rosacea faced girl to do- what any non self respecting girl would do, I salvage what I can off the counter and the washing machine and apply it my face. DUH. I am thinking to myself, hummmm I hope this isn't a sign about how the day is gonna go. I think it was. Next up, lets curl those eye lashes. Sounds dangerous. Not nearly as bad as after you fish the curler out from behind said washing machine after you drop it, and it is covered in so many cobwebs and spider bodies you wonder if you have every actually cleaned back there. Yes I have. To stay optomistic, you say to yourself, gosh remember when the litter box used to be there and you would drop stuff in there.... Oh a little hot water and soap will fix that- o.k. a little more hot water and soap. Next up- mascara. Really, am I brave enough today? Men, if you are reading there is a phenomena that occurs during mascara application. The twitch. Something takes over your hand and arm and you just poke yourself in the eye with that wand. We don't mean to, we try to stop it by closing our eye, but instead we make a la brea tar pit mess on our lid, lash line and if lucky in our eye. I have to say that mascare in the eye is way better than the toothbrush with paste on it. Lets just say that minty fresh was not meant for your eye. You with me so far?? Moisturisure on appliance, curler behind washer, mascara in eye. I was kinda afraid to try to get dressed as I might kill myself in the process. I am happy to say no one was injured during the dressing process. AH- ready to begin my day! I grab my stuff and this red rosacea faced, la brea tar bit watery eye girl hit the road. It is gonna be a good day. I can feel it.
Hmmmmm.... perhaps the approaching full moon has something to do with it? Hope the rest of your day improved!
And thanks for a good laugh! I've had that morning! :)
