With the last few days being so stressful, finishing the web site, and spending the whole weekend helping our oldest daughter and her husband move into their first home, I thought that I deserved a facial. When I read the directions and they implied that you should lie down and rest while you wear the mask, I thought yea, right with two little ones good luck. Therefore, I opted to wear the masks as I sat in front of my therapy light. I sat the little ones down in front of the t.v. to watch Sesame Street. I hate using the tv as a babysitter but sometime it is necessary. Therefore, here I sit with the mask and light on. As the mask tight, I lost the ability to speak with out causing major damage to the mask as well as my face. Sure enough, the youngest becomes scare of one of the monster on Sesame Street. As she runs in yelling “mommy, mommy scared,” I am think scared if she take one look at my face she will surely see scared and with the inability to speak I was only left with the option of waving my arms and hands to direct her to come to the side of the chair. I quickly buried her head on my shoulder hoping she would not look in the direction of my face. Now, all I can do is grunt my sympathies as I pat her back. The crisis fads and she wants to go back to watch tv, Saved by Sesame Street! The timer goes off telling me it time to remove the mask and man my face is so tight that I swear that if I try to smile that my face will just fall off. I get to the bathroom, turn on the light, find the paper with the directions and reread how to remove the mask. I then turn to face the sink to rinse of the mask when I see this reflection in the mirror that caused me to jump 4 feet in to the air and let out this yell this brings the little ones running. I had to do something QUICK, I can not let the little ones see my face it would scare the living daylights out of them as it did me. The only thing that I could do was jump into the shower so they could not see me. I do believe I have never in my life removed my clothes so fast as I did then. I was successful from hiding my face from the little ones but I do not think I will be repeating this process any time soon.
I would like to send all of you very big Cyber hugs and lots and lots of positive thoughts.
Warmest Regards,

You have the best sense of humor for the situations in your life.
OMG, I don't think I've laughed like this in a while. Thanks for sharing your story.
I usually use a masque in the shower while I shave my legs. It might not dry completely before I wash it off but I'm hiding out in the shower the whole time.
