must stay focused...

April 12th, 2008 at 05:55 am

I really, really must stay focused. There's something about spring that just screams "SPENNNNNDDDD!" to me... it always has. Probably because there's so much that I'd love to do with the house. A garden. Paint. New wall hangings. New dining room table. A patio set. All this I know won't make me as happy as paying off debt, it what I tell myself. And I know it won't.

Although I have been getting a tad bitter and cranky lately about one thing. We really have cut down on so much and buy the bare minimum. One thing that's been frustrating me lately is that I haven't been buying my nice expensive and well working face wash OR makeup (the foundation stuff. I couldn't care less about what mascara or eye shadow I'm using.) I recently ran out of both around the same time about a week and a half ago. Now I am not really that vain and can go the whole day without so much as glancing in a mirror, but one thing really gets on my nerves: acne. Due to crummy face wash and crummy makeup, I am SO broken out and oily and just.... icky! I hate it! I feel like I'm 15 again : ( I just cannot justify going out and spending a bunch of cash on it right now.... even though it really is making me miserable. I've been trying some homemade remedies and facial scrubs and stuff with things made from around the house, but it's just not working. I have a feeling it's this stupid makeup that's making me do it.

Bah.

    Where do you buy the make up? Do they ever have a a sale? Or maybe you could look online for a coupon? Just a thought...

    I feel your pain. I used to use Clinique makeup in high school, and had very little acne or irritation. Now that I have to budget my money for other goals, I have been using a foundation from Walmart. It's one of the creme-mousse kinds, so I actually like the look of it, but I have to be careful or it makes my face too oily. If only makeup were free. Smile
