How's everyone today?
I'm doing pretty damned good today... I made it through my period, but my face is TOTALLY freaking out now that I'm off BCPs. Anyone have any idea how long it'll take for your skin to figure out it's own natural rhythm (my reproductive system seems to have gotten the hint, but my face hasn't caught up yet!)
It's going to be GORGEOUS here today if we can hold off the thunderstorms. (Then it drops to 48 tomorrow and rain all weekend!
) So I'm hoping to enjoy today!
Re: TGIF, ladies!
Enjoy the nice weather, we're supposd to be in the high 80's all weekend.
I came in to a nice voicemail this morning from a lady that saw my resume and would like to talk to me, it's in our government group, I'd love to be in that group. I'm so torn as to what to do, I mean I know what I need to do but the whole thought of staying home for the summer was a great one but we would really struggle without my salary at least for another year then we'll know for sure that John's company is going to stay as steady as it is now.
I may not be on again today so have a great weekend ladies!
Morning! I'm so happy it's finally Friday and the sun is shining and we're going to have a beautiful day and a great weekend here!
Plus my boss told me to go home by 10 so I could enjoy the day
Paula...you went off of BCP's?????
I'm so glad it's FRIDAY! seriously, this has been such a stressful week I just want to lay around all weekend, it's suppose to be 80 tomorrow!!
I have to AW my hubs, he put on a pair of jeans last night that he wore on our first date 4+ years ago (back when he was in the army and workingout), he's looking hot! I've lost 37 lbs since Jan 1st also, I don't have pics, but I'm feeling great, I'm just below my wedding weight, I can't fit into the jeans I wore on our first date, but they're still in my closet, I think I'll be back in them by our anniv.
I'll be in and out today, hope you all have a wonderful weekend
Had to, Kristin.
How fun to leave at 10!! You should definitely do SOMETHING!!
Congrats, Heather!! You're such an inspiration - I see your posts on SP and it seriously pushes me because I know you're doing it!
You guys are doing AWESOME!!!! You have to take some pictures so we can see how great you look!
Happy Friday. I am in a great mood, the weather is nice, I am having a good hair day and I can't wait for the weekend!!!
Paula - My skin has been terrible and I went of BCP's in October. I actually have it on my calendar to make an appt w/ a dermatologist. My skin has never been this bad.
I usually have fairly oily skin with some breakouts. Now my skin IS FLAKING off to the point I'm putting Neutrogena handcream on it!!
Wait...when'd you get of BCPs Paula??
Way to go Heather and Heather's DH!!!!
I'm off work today, but it's a crazy day. I still have to run to Target (again...this is trip #3 this week) because I want to buy some cheap sunglasses to take w/us. I have a pedi/nail appt/wax appt this afternoon...plus laundry and packing. And studying if I can find the time. AHHHHH!!!

Oh it is really dry, I guess I assumed you were breaking out badly since that is what happened to my skin. Do you have a humidifier in your bedroom? That would help a bit...not that you need it once the weather warms up.
Paula it sounds like maybe you could use a daily exfoliating scrub and it might help. The one I use is a little expensive but the bottle will last me at least a year and it's gentle enough to use everyday. Let me know if you'd like the info on it.
When I went off of BCP's my face was breaking out like crazy too and it didn't get better until I got pregnant.
I swear to god, you're a mind reader...I hadn't even told Mike that I was bringing the book with me!
I have to bring it! My test is on 5/30 and I'm a FAILURE!
.: Diary of a Recovering Runner :.
you better be careful, he might throw them in the ocean ;o)
What part do you have? Besides, 5/30 is more than a month away, that's pleanty of time.
Seriously, though, you'll bring the books and I guarantee you won't open them. Save the space in your luggage, your back will thank you later.
My chin has always been some form of broken out, so there's really nothing new there. LOL I typically use St Ives Apricot Scrub almost daily and then Mary Kay microdermabrasion once a week (if that); that typically has kept my skin fairly clear, but HOLY COW.. now it's totally dry (even though it's steadily warmer now).
Great,... I have this to deal with until I'm pregnant, Kristin?! LOL
Doesn't matter how warm it is or how moist the weather is I always have to use a daily moisturizer and usually every other night I put on night cream to help hydrate my skin.
I do too - daily moisturizer before foundation and then I sometimes use the same at night after washing my face (sometimes I break out from using the nighttime cream I have every day because it's TOO much and causes my face to get greasy.)
