lashing out

I have to be honest with my blog and face the fact that I am going through a "less than fabulous" patch of life right now.  It kind of strange, because I just went through a quite fabulous patch.  I was pleased with my recital and all the hard work I put into it.  I was feeling on top of the world.  Unfortunately, that feeling didn't last very long as life started crumbling around me only a few days later.  Anyway - I need not get into that right now.

I only came here to mention one of the annoying things about going through a rough spell.  And that thing is waterproof mascara.  I don't like the stuff.  It feels "different" when it's on, seems to build up on my eyelashes, and doesn't wash off easily. I don't like the feeling, or the extra step, of the special eye-makeup remover.  I want to wash my face the regular way and have all my makeup off.  But there are days when as much as I don't like the stuff, I thank God that I keep a tube in the back of the makeup drawer.  I recommend every gal keeps some of it around. You never know when you are going to need it and the last thing you want to do on that day is to take a trip to the beauty counter.  Oh, the waterproof mascara blues...
 I look forward to the morning when I have the courage to put on the regular mascara.  That day will come.  Until then I guess I'll count my blessings I don't have to look like a raccoon face by lunchtime.

If you must cry today! Make sure you will not cry tomorrow. Enjoy the day God has provided.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love. ~Washington Irving
