The title describes my "look" today. I ran into a good friend as I was picking Ava up from school this morning. Thankfully, since she is such a good friend, she refrained from commenting on my rather half-hazard approach to appearance. I have on a dark brown shirt, navy pants, white socks, and black shoes. That is just wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
My hair is in the same pony tail I pulled it into 2 days ago. I've slept on it, twice, and it is frizzing out like crazy. I obviously haven't showered in 2 days, and I kind of stink. I, of course, am not wearing any make-up, but I DID brush my teeth this morning.
Lucas had a bad day yesterday. He basically fussed or screamed for about 12 straight hours. I had to hold, bounce, and nurse him all day long to try and stop him from screaming. I was having visions of baby Ava dancing in my head. He was close to matching her craziness. Today is much better. But, that doesn't mean I could get dressed appropriately. Maybe tomorrow.

Hey, you have a new baby...You're entitled to having "Train Wreck" days. I always tried to put up a front when people from church brought me food. I would have to run upstairs and try to pull myself together just so people wouldn't see how bad it had gotten. And it could get pretty ugly! :)
Becky,
12 hours of crying? Oh my! I don't know how ya'll do it? I don't know what makes us so vain? I remember in the hospital just being mortified for people to see me without makeup, but then the hair? When you are laying in bed all day what can you do with your hair? Anyway, once I was home I just loved not having to get dressed or put on makeup and just conserving the energy that it takes to do all that. You get so used to taking showers you don't realize how much energy it actually does take. They wear me out nowdays, so I skip as many as I can!! Just know that it is okay to go ala natural! Hope there are more good days than bad days ahead.
Becky, do you remember when you broght me dinner after Nick was born? It was dinnertime (obviously)... I was still in my pajamas... I had my glasses on... and truth be told, I probably hadn't brushed my teeth yet. I remember being mortified, but really not having the energy to do anything about it!
I am so sorry Becky. I will be praying for you. I pray Lucas is doing better now for you.
