The Daily

This is me on the daily, actually maybe a little more done up because I am not in pajamas. Instead a surf t-shirt, old jean shorts, hat to hide the sun...and a bathing suit which never really saw the sunshine. Oh, wait I almost forgot the shades that I often rock even in the house to hide no makeup and dark circles...

This was a few weeks ago on a camping trip...I think the expression sums of my life as of late. Tired, exhausted, a little confused, wanting to escape...I love my life almost all of the time, but I do get overwhelmed a lot of the time. I am not the best multi-tasker. Nor the best at hiding my emotions in the way I look. I tried this summer to step out of my new norm and look pretty again, but it has been  a struggle. Hot Kona weather, not being able to manage my time, depression sometimes reaping it's ugly head, kids, not leaving the house so why dress up, I could go on. These are just excuses though. I want to quit with the excuses and work more on me. Inner and Outer. So I will try again. I took a few pics today of my normal attire. No make-up, similar to this one above. I will post it tomorrow. These pics will be my "before"...I want to work on documenting my transformations on my blog and finding my inner "fashionista"...I know I can finally do it. I am great at picking out fun and unique clothing. My problem is letting it sit on my hanger because I am too lazy or self-defeated each day to "work it girl"...I am excited and optimistic. Next week will be week one. I must document in writing and pictures at least twice during the week my looks with a little bit of effort. I am even going to attempt again linking up with some of my favorite bloggers for their fashion features. The hubby has promised to help taking pictures and I am pretty sure the two munchkins will keep their dirty fingers off me for at least a few minutes while the pictures are being taken. Luckily, I don't own too much white!

Happy Friday! Have a great weekend. I just hope it cools down in Kona.
