The week started with sickness but ended with new lipstick
Today is the man's birthday. He doesn't like a big fuss being made so I'm not making one. We went out with friends on a long planned outing last night that was only supposed to last about an hr or so, nearly 5 hrs later Das poured my tired ass into the car, lol. It was a lot of fun and we have all determined we must do it again. Not much sexier than domly ones puffing on cigars while us s-types get tipsy while still keeping an eye out for their needs. I loved the low key but attentive vibe of the night.
Although I wasn't dressed up by any means I looked cute, extra much since I had finally broken down and bought some damned jeans that fit, lol. I went to the dreaded mall to get a lipstick (somehow 2 followed me home a near hot pink and a bright red) and Express lured me in with promises of well fitting pants. It was a gamble since I don't actually know what size I wear at this point it but the sales clerks were quite helpful and accurate at visually gauging my size. I walked out with a couple pairs of size 12 boot cut low rise jeans that make my butt look awesome. Of course a belt is needed b/c of the ever present lower back gap due to generous bootiage. Luckily Das has the best belt in the world, a non notch belt that stretches to accommodate a variety of waist/hip widths. I need one of my own but I haven't seen one yet so in the meantime I just keep stealing err "borrowing" his. So my outfit ended up being light blue distressed bootcut jeans, red mary janes, black sleeveless one shoulder top and I even threw on earrings for the occasion. The red lipstick won the coin toss. The kidlet took a couple of pictures of me which I have yet to download with the good camera no less. If I ever wanted to start a fashion blog I'd have enough pictures to start off with since my vanity knows no bounds. :)
Gladly I have been on the mend this week. Monday I took a dreaded trip to the doctor where the sinus infection was verified and antibiotics were prescribed (again) and I promptly went back home and fell asleep. I have done little but sleep this week really only coming up for a piece of toast here and there. By Thursday I could breathe and the never ending pounding of my face/head had finally stopped but I was still very tired so it was nice that by yesterday I was able to get stuff done and go out. Somehow laundry and basic cleaning happened. Unfortunately today I did not make it up in time to watch the 5am soccer game but I did get it together to see Das before he had to go into the office this morning. The kidlet is about to be off to spend the day with a friend and I will get cute and tidy and be ready for when The Man gets home. Celebrations shall ensue! ;)
