FRIENDS AND LAUGHTER – NOT

Okay so I am still stressing about my looks.  It just so happens that during the last two weeks I have been given two pictures of myself and all I’ve got to say is, “UCK!!!” 

I look absolutely terrible.  Double terrible going all the way to OMG – what happened here!  So first I asked my daughter, “What’s wrong here?”  Are you surprised that I didn’t get an answer, she sort of hemmed and hawed around and I left feeling worse than before.  So then I asked Fawn and she looked at me and looked at me and looked at me.  (I could just see the wheels turning, she’s thinking to herself, “Do I tell her the truth and risk losing a friend or not?”  So finally I let her off the hook and said, “Is it my eyebrows?”  Well she jumped on that like a kid on a trike and said, “Let’s go play in my makeup!”  I was pretty sure I was in trouble then but thought that since I really needed help I was desparate!!!

I used to have really thick eyebrows (and eyelashes and hair) in fact the only thing that wasn’t thick on me THEN was my waist.  But my first pair of granny glasses rubbed on my brows and thinned them out for me.  They looked good for a while and then they started – oh well, I may as well tell you, they’re awful.  My brows consist of some black & and some white and they get really long but there isn’t many of them.  Then there’s the wee scar on my left one where no hair grows but I sure had fun getting that scar – hey, it was the 60’s, what can I say. 

I had tried eyebrow pencil before but never liked the look but I went ahead and used some of Fawn’s pencil.  And she said, “Well, that’s a start!!!”  A start!!!, I’m looking for a quick all over fix, head to toe, yeah and while I’m dreaming, lets lose a few of the pounds and a lot of the wrinkles.  THIRTY, yeah I’d like to be and look 30 again.  That would just be great for me, I’d be so happy, well maybe I’d need some more money too, maybe a lot of money and I could shop and travel and shop and go out to dinner and shop.  Well, you get the idea.

I’m still wondering why I can’t carry that bathroom mirror around with me.  LOL!
