I use the term "crusty" to describe myself when I've not showered or gotten ready for the day(s). Do ya'll use this word like that or is just me?!?
I turned 30 in December. No big deal, I was totally fine with it. Until today, that is. I walked by a picture that sits on a shelf in our living room and actually stopped to look at it.
It's a pic from the 4th of July...so I started to reminisce about that day the pic was taken...two years ago. All the while thinking to myself how YOUNG I looked...then it hit me! That pic is not from two years ago, it is from LAST 4th of July!!! What the heck happened to me this year?!?
OK, so I know what happened...but out of all the natural disasters, I'm gonna blame it on the fact that since I turned 30, I've probably washed my make-up off before bed, like 10 times. *gasp* (by the way, this is just between you and me...do NOT tell my Arbonne friend)
So bloggy friends, I'm off to wash my make-up off...wait...I didn't put any on today because it just doesn't go with the crustiness of my tiny-town right now...but I'll wash and moisturize anyways! And, if you happen to have a miracle in a bottle that is also inexpensive, I'm all ears!
Side note: My short hair this year...WAY BETTER...I'm not a long hair girl, doesn't fit my personality...at least that's my theory for now.

I thought I taught you that word "crusty"?!?! Daniel probably taught it to me...or did we all get it from a cartoon?!?!?
ReplyDeleteoh, and in case you did not know... you are so skinny now that you look ten yrs younger than that pic anyway!
ReplyDeleteI eagerly read your blog to find out what is happening in Tiny Town (I know where it is) Sarah M is my daughter-in-law and I am very interested to know what is happening there. I love Pat and Leon and wonder how they are doing. Wendi tells me some, but not a whole lot. Keep writing and the pictures are wonderful. A
ReplyDeleteI hear you girl! I keep looking at current pictures and think "I look so old!" When my hair was short, I thought I looked younger with short hair. Now that my hair has grown out, I think I looked younger with it short! Usta!
ReplyDeleteOkay girls, just wait until you get old enough to be grandmothers! I look in the mirror and ask "who ARE you?" :) I've resigned to the fact that aging will happen so I have determine to be the classiest old lady ever. :)
ReplyDeleteYou guys are darling!

I'm not always good about washing my make-up off before bed either. But I think you look great!
ReplyDeleteI've had the same thoughts when I look in the mirror!
ReplyDeleteLove your short hair - curly and straight!
Great Picture! I think you could be bald and still look darling! Your boys are cuties!
ReplyDeleteThe 30s are interesting, to say the least. I think I finally liked me, for me. Although the lines around my eyes are a little scary.

I don't know what you've been looking at, but the pictures of you on your previous posts are ANYTHING but crusty! You look fantastic. :) Not crusty. For sure not crusty.
ReplyDeleteLove this family picture. The boys show so much personality!
Yes, I use the word crusty in that way, but you do not look crusty in that picture!
ReplyDeleteCrusty is a great word - I think I will use it!
ReplyDeleteI don't think you look old!!! I actually think all of the stress you have been through is just messing with you!
Hugs
Yes, I like the short hair on you too. I'm planning to cut mine soon!
ReplyDeleteYes- you are sooooo a short hair girl. I think I am going to start a club for us! :) I think you look amazing and fresh...not crusty.
ReplyDeleteHi Sarah! I found your blog by way of my friend, Stephanie. I hope you don't mind my checking in.
ReplyDeleteYou are so fun! I really enjoy your blog. I understand the word crusty! I'm the mother of two little boys, and I just turned 30! I'm moving to a tiny town too, however I'm just moving back to the same tiny town I grew up in. It should be interesting!
I'm praying for you and your tiny town!
Okay -- 30!! I look at pictures when I turned 30 and it seems like just last week not 17 years later! Someone just looked at a picture on my desk and commented that I looked so young in that picture -- it was TWO years ago. I promptly put it away!!! I'm going to stop looking in the mirror but hey -- right now I don't even HAVE my own mirror . . . .
