Day 2

The only dress that has a date attached with it is the 4th of July.  So the next day to my experiment I wore another dress, I'm sure.  I think it was the day we forgot to take a picture.  I think it was me at the end of the day in the mirror with a camera.  Crazy, I have problems getting people to take pictures of me.  Like it's suuuccchh a hard thing to do.  I love my peeps I do but come on I suck at taking my own pictures. 

I just looked at the calendar and realized I have been doing this for 17 days.  This is going to be a trip trying to make sense of all this. So maybe they won't be the exact days.  Like today for instance.  I fell asleep almost immediately when I got home from P31 last night...makeup on..meds not taken...nothing on the chargers..on top of everything.  The dress for today was fabulous.  But I couldn't get out of bed till 3.  I put it on.  But there's no makeup involved, no hair done, and just a whole look of disheveledness.  Somehow I made it to the kitchen, made pancakes (dress and my apron, loving it) despite the time and vegged out to some Glee that I was behind on.  Then caught up on the George R. R. Martin Clash of Kings book I have been reading and unable to put down.  So, plan is, put this dress on tomorrow, take pics, then put on the dress for tomorrow.  Maybe I'm taking this too seriously lol.  Maybe I will wear this another day.  No one saw me.  Except Madisyn, and the neighbor I borrowed eggs from, and all the people who were outside when I was.  It's ok.  




I've learned a couple things so far.  One, if you don't put on the makeup and do the hair you won't take it seriously and will remain frumpy all day, just in a dress.  Two, do your nails the night before, and shower the night before.  That's two things knocked off your todo list right there.  Three, I stopped biting my nails.  Painting my nails made me stop I guess.  Four, I tend to use correct posture while dressed up.  All that stupid stuff my dad told me growing up. Sit up straight, shoulders back, etc..etc.  I do it without even thinking about it.  Weird.  Five, if I use gel, people think my hair is thicker and looks fuller.  That's all I can think of right now.  


Next time I will tell you about the other experiment I have been doing.  This one I have been trying to do all year but sometimes I forget.  It's not huge so I'm not telling yet.  Even if it was I wouldn't tell you.  :-P  


Hey, here's a project for all of you...send me your best vegetarian meal and I will let Madisyn be the judge.  If you know my daughter she is the double of the boy, Mikey, on that cereal commercial from the 80s.  You know, Mikey likes it!  Fact just learned! It first aired in 1972 and then went on to air 12 more years.  Didn't know that.  Off topic.  So, get your recipes ready.  


Tell me if you don't have an expensive blender thing how do you blend veggie smoothies?  Will a regular blender do it?  Buying those things are way too expensive but I need them!


New with this blog is my amazon associates title.  So if you see something highlighted that goes to amazon, well, it means buy it.  I get profit off it.  The links on the side of the blog as well.  I will put this on the blog so you don't forget.  :-P

Until next time...
