I Burned My Veil Long Ago

O.K. motherbumber, here you go... this is 41 ALL DAY:
I don't even put on warpaint for the ladies.

Though in my head, I'm still this person (who also never wore makeup):Gosh darn-it! Who invented mirrors anyway?!!

p.s. in the spirit of complete "truthiness" and full disclosure, (and after actually READING the original dare), I don't usually look that together - my daily mom uniform is not so stylish (I haven't even discovered loga yants yet) and I don't usually wear earrings. Here is my actual first thing in the mornin' shot, well, not first thing, I did wait a few minutes until my eyes were willing to open under the lights:
Who invented lights anyway?!

When you have skin that nice you don't need makeup.

You don't need any make-up! I don't wear any 75% of the time, cause my kids don't care. LOL! I live in Rocky Mount, NC...not far from you! I went to Saint Mary's College and Meredith College in Raleigh, then moved off to Chicago for 7 years or so for Hubby's work. Now we are back in NC for Hubby's work again. We don't really care for Rocky Mount, but we are close enough to Raleigh and the beach so it works for now. Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Ok, Where Was I? said...

Totally second foolery's comment. I love that "in my head." I hope that's how it always is for all of us.

I was reading a kids' book to my 6 year old last night, and learned (yes, I didn't know this) that Queen Eliz. didn't have a clear mirror for twenty-some years at the end b/c she didn't want that kind of clear reflection. I wonder how many of us would be better off that way!

You are BEAUTIFUL, you don't need no stinkin' war paint.

Loga yants are the way to go! Stretchy, forgiving and comfy. They're my new Mom uniform.

You don't need make-up!

If I don't throw on a bit in the am, I look so washed out my features kind of all blend together.

I really want to do this truthiness thing, but my camera is broken. SEND HELP!!!
