Meno Moment #314 (or so).....

You will NOT believe what I did, or in this case, didn't do tonight. Honestly, this takes the cake!! Ok...I showered, did my hair, got dressed and we went out for dinner. Had a nice time. Never looked in the miror once during the evening. Came home, went to wash my face for bed........NO MAKEUP!!! I never put one bit of makeup on my face!! No mascara, no eyebrow pencil, no powder, no lipstick, no NOTHING!!! I said, Gary how could you let me go out like that? He said, "Well, that goes to show you don't need it, because I didn't notice". So, what do I make of this? I'm gorgeous to him no matter what? I would like to think so. OR...he pays absolutely no attention to what I look like?!?! I would like to think that isn't true...LOL. Do you all believe I did this?? Oh, and to top it off...no earrings! I feel naked without earrings, THAT I noticed when I touched my ear about 1/2 way thru the evening. I tend to play with my earrings and they were missing. What a bozo!!! Gabby

I rarely wear makeup,and if I do,my hubby wonders who I'm trying to pick up! LOL He says I don't need it either. As for earrings,if I do,I do and if I wear perfume....ooooooo watch out then he REALLY thinks I'm up to something! ;oD

LOL, Gabby, I know exactly how you're feeling. I put my makeup on every day, right after showering, whether I'm going anywhere or not. When the older kids were younger, at first they asked where I was going? They must have finally gotten used to it, because, they quit asking. I once forgot to bring my mascara up to the lake with us, I didn't even want to go outside. Now if I had realized I had forgotten earrings, I may have sat there wondering what else I forgot and would have had to excuse myself to check a mirror, lol. Guess, you should just not worry about it and take the belief that dh loves you so much no matter how you look. Guess you won't do that again for awhile, huh? lol. Take care, Charlie

Aaaaaah! That is so nice what Gary said. I think obviously your DH doesn't think you need it and you DO look beautiful to him without it.

I've done things like that before. I usually check myself 3 or 4 times before I leave the house and go through a mental list as well. It's just too many more important things on our minds is all.

Hope dinner was good.

Gabby I have done that and got the same response from my husband. Why is it they say we don't need make up?? I usually never go anywhere without mine and I play with my earings too so I would notice not having them in and felt not completely dressed.

I usually check two or three times before heading out the door to make sure I look decent. Would hate to scare strangers LOL

Love and Hugs

Since I know Gary I'm taking the 5th on answering that question!

I haven't worn anything but mascara and lipstick for years. Too much trouble and my skin hates it. So I say go without. You said it was hot there yesterday so subconsciuosly you knew it was too hot for make-up. Right?

Don't go anywhere without make-up, forgot to put on my eyebrows once...and have forgotten earrings...deodorant once or twice. I blame it all on menopause....I need something and by the time I've walked down the stairs I have forgotten what it was. At least I've never forgotten my underwear or important stuff like that...tee...hee.....

LOL Gabby! I don't know if your dh is sweet or not....but I do know he gave the SMART answer!! LOL! I don't think I've ever forgotten all my makeup, but I do forget mascara once in a while and I have forgotten earrings often enough that I now have an extra pair in the car!! That way when I check myself in the rearview mirror and discover no earrings....voila!!....an extra pair handy! Menopause.....just lovely huh???

Many hugs!

Gabby,

Sorry gal, but when I read your post, I laughed so hard I had tears running down my face.

At least you didn't go out in your half slip thinking you had your skirt on. LOL.

Thanks for sharing that, really. I needed that badly. You just have no idea.

I have to say though I bet you dont' even need makeup to look nice. That was very sweet what you dh said too. You lucky girl.

Love ya, Terry
