What to do ~ O ~ What to do ~_^

I awaken to the sunlight and a new day.  Then, oh then, is a new day offered.  What to do on this new day?  Well, I've made a cup of coffee and had 4 slices of toast.  Buttered and a little jelly of course.  I realize that we have choices. So yesterday I chose to watch movies, lay around and play Ruzzle via my cell.  Ruzzle is like a cross between Boggle & Scrabble. Very addicting. Whew...

I am guilty, guilty of leaving my projects alone in my bag ~>


Oh me , Oh my.  This started as a scarf and then I decided to transform it into a cape. But this has been in the making since The evening that Hurricane Sandy touched down and I must admit that I could've been finished with this, but, I dwindled on, letting my project sit and whisper to me..  Work on me, Work on me.

<~~~  This is how it looks open.  I think it will be a beauty and it feels great.  I will not continue to divulge the other sources, rather where are my other WIP projects hiding about my living room.  LOL 

Laughter is good for the soul as is Knitting/Crocheting and Crafting in general.  Why who doesn't love yarn, the softest of the soft? Well those who don't know. Who have not been mesmerized my merino's or cashmere/merino blend, silk and alpaca.  Seriously, I, a knitter for 7 years, I must say that I am sort of a yarn snob.  Not quite fully snobbish but I am I simply love caressing the luxurious yarns who sends quivers through the fingers ~ stimulating the brains thoughts and ideas and patterns that scream of our attention.  Oh yeah.



Now on to life.  I tried the Vitamin E sink-in moisture mask last night.  It requires 10 minutes of relaxation.  After all that is said and done your face is left soft.

Although, I must admit that being forced to sit still was pushy.  I was playing Ruzzle while laying in bed and letting my face absorb this stuff.  My eyebrows and chin need immediate attention from my tweezers.  When I think of my past and the use of makeup, there really isn't much to talk about.

I wore lipstick at times but not for long.  Eyeliner was alright but scarcely used. Mascara, hmm, nope not until the past 10 years have I truly utilized this.  With my skin care routine, there barely was any.  Not unless I was having a breakout and need some stuff to correct the problem, but otherwise, it wasn't until Shakira [my daughter] crept into her preteens that I needed some products to handle her acne.  Prior to that I used alcohol to clean my pores.  Astringent was, scarcely used, but now since Thanksgiving, my purchases have increased.   My makeup purchases have increased.  I know names, products, companies, and the usage of these products.  Yes, I am a late bloomer, although it is never too late in life. 

<~~~ This is Thanksgiving Day 2012 the start of a new me.

Now to the right ~~~> this picture recently was taken on February 5, 2013. 

Lashes are longer, eyeliner more defined, and different products to a slight degree. But, there is a difference because I am using bronzer and blush. 

Blah, Blah, Blah.  Oh well, I am still perfecting my techniques and the time spent doing my face.  Psst.... I love the way I look when I put on my face and the eyes I catch looking. 

So I have been rambling on.  I will return to my movie Can~Can starring Frank Sinatra & Shirley MacLaine.  This is the first time I'm watching this and I love it. Now, I will also pick up my WIP and continue to work on it.

Well enjoy your day and the Sunshine.  I hear that Monday it is suppose to be raining.  Not cool at all.
