Look Good, Feel Better

This evening I went to "Look Good, Feel Better" at Florida Hospital. The American Cancer Society uses volunteer cosmetologists and makeup from leading manufacturers to show women how to apply makeup when a) you've lost your hair and feel icky about it, b) feel icky in general from the treatment and c) show you how to use makeup to disguise the fact that you've lost your eyebrows and eyelashes. I haven't lost eyebrows or eyelashes YET. It was a fun thing to do and it's nice to socialize with other women going through chemo or radiation. And I came home with a goody bag full of makeup....some things I'll use and some things I'll give away (like the blue eyeshadow trio).

I did some yard work out back today and stepped into some weeds harboring some fire ants. OUCH! Just what I need. I'm going to have to be dressed from top to bottom if I continue to work outside. I can't risk getting an infection. So much fun!

Be careful in the yard.
My mom told me to send you some garlic. She claims that it is her cure all.
