Let's Chat About Makeup, Cats, Blogging, Photography and Wicked Mood Swings in Today's Open Thread - Makeup and Beauty Blog

I'm back from the parade and feeling much improve. It helped to walk around exterior, get some sun and see happy people and kids, and oh! — animals.

Yep, seeing animals e'er does wonders for my soul. Any day y'all come across a pet hog wearing Mardi Gras chaplet in a stroller can't be also bad, you know?

(Information technology made me feel like less of a crazy true cat lady for wanting to become Tabs a stroller so we can cruise the mall.)

Team Canine was definitely in the house! At that place were lots of dogs, and many of them were dressed up for the occasion.

This girl was my favorite.

Meet the crossed paws action? 🙂

FLAWLESS. She has "International Doggy Supermodel" written all over her.

Quite a few horses out and almost, besides. They were dressed for the occasion in glitter, bows, body pigment and stars.

Yup, it's official. If I e'er accept a horse, I'thou dressing her upward in sparkles and bows on the regular.

A proficient time was had by all…

I recall this is actually the best I've felt in days.

To be honest, I haven't been feeling that not bad mentally, and over the past seven years of blogging, I've learned that I really have to come up to the keyboard in a good state of listen; otherwise, I end up writing steaming piles of true cat poop, which is why I haven't been writing as much equally usual.

Plus, I don't ever desire to bum you out or bring you down. The world is already hard enough equally it is, and MBB has e'er been my rubber and happy place.

That ordinarily works… I can usually get myself to see the brilliant side, only not then much lately. I haven't been able to go my sh*t together.

Outset, these past few weeks have been physically uncomfortable for me. I've had an ache in my lower back, my breasts have been extremely sore, my lips have been unbearably painful and dry out (discover how I haven't been taking whatsoever closeup lip shots?) and none — I'm talking NONE — of my clothes fit.

I've pretty much been living in stretchy pants.

And then…the mood swings.

We're talking out of control, completely cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs cray! Probably the worst I've always had. One infinitesimal, I'll be fine and functional; then, suddenly, I'll feel like the weight of the world is on my shoulders. Pretty soon I'm balled up on the couch crying uncontrollably.

With all of this craziness happening with my trunk and mental wellbeing, I really thought I might be pregnant, and for a second, I was hopeful.

Just information technology turns out I'thousand non, and I am a little disappointed and sad most that. I'm nevertheless working my manner through information technology…

It'll take at to the lowest degree two tubs of ice cream and half a pound of chocolate this weekend to recover.

At least I experience similar joking again. 🙂 And smiling a footling bit, likewise. Those are good signs.

My mom says that when y'all smile, the whole world smiles with y'all, so I'm trying to notice those small things, those reasons to smile, like making silly faces when I see myself in the mirror, watching kids run effectually and play, seeing happy dogs on walks with their people, and going to a parade on a sunny 24-hour interval.

Anyway, that'due south basically why I haven't been effectually so much. I'one thousand sorry about disappearing without an explanation. It's only been kind of hard for me lately, that's all. But it'southward getting better.

When I woke upwards this morning, I thought I'd feel similar doing makeup reviews, merely I'm non quite there yet. How near if we exercise an open up thread instead?

Ask me annihilation — makeup stuff, blogging tips, pet dilemmas — whatever's on your mind. But leave a annotate. I'll be effectually the residue of the mean solar day.

I promise all is well with you.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen
