I had some free time last Wednesday night while Brad and the girls were going to the church and a little "allowance" money burning a hole in my pocket. I ran out of my blush a couple days before and my eye make-up and powder were running on empty...plus, I dropped one of them so it was all crumbled up in the case...I was to the point of trying not to lose any precious crumbs as the lid popped open....so I thought, "I am going to treat myself to some new, fancy make-up!" I remembered right before Homecoming I took Savannah to Ulta to get new make-up for the dance and there was a really nice lady working there who did an "on the spot" mini makeover for Vannah so she could see what we chose on herself and decide if she liked it for the dance. So I was scrubbing my face when the girls were getting ready to leave for the church and they asked me what I was doing....I told them I was getting ready to go into town because I knew that would puzzle them :) I said, "I am taking all my make-up off, so I can get a makeover and buy new make-up.....WOOOOHOOOO!"
That was my plan anyway....I got to Ulta and a lady asked me if she could help me....I said, "yes....I just removed all my make-up so I could get someone to help me find the right tones for my skin and buy new make-up tonight." AND, I SMILED....as pretty as I could muster with no make-up on. She said, "Ummmmmm" with a really long, drawn out M....(side note:) when the M is that long, you know something's the matter. Then she told me I needed to schedule an appointment with a skin specialist and gave me a business card. I guess I should have told her I was going to a Homecoming dance, but my laugh lines and wrinkles always give my age away :)
Not sure why that was so funny, but I laughed all the way home....sometimes it is really funny when a plan doesn't come together the way you expect it to.....OH, WELL.....who cares if I get more laugh lines, right?!
Maybe next time?
It's funny that verse is in Eeeeek-lesiastes...me without make-up, ha!
