This is my workout face.
I have always been quite self-conscious about my butt and thighs, so it is a big deal when I say that I really like this outfit. I’ve never liked myself in shorts or jeans, because it highlights my butt and my thighs, whereas skirts tend to camouflage what I consider to be my problem areas. I credit the cardigan for part of the camouflaging done here, though, since it’s designed to fall gracefully in the front and creates a straighter, more flattering line visually. But exciting news!

I have bronchitis– my mother insisted on taking me to urgent care this morning– and I look about as sick as I feel. Apparently, if we’d let this cough go another week, it would have turned into pneumonia. That would have been exciting.

I demolish things.
I have a nine hour shift today and a ten(and-a-half) hour shift tomorrow. Yesterday I was all set to show you something I did concerning the sewing machine and a wonky garment I found at the thrift store, but I got called in to work unexpectedly, and thus didn’t have time to photograph after pictures (I have befores.) So. Can you guess what I did with this unfortunate pair of shorts? It shouldn’t be that difficult to guess. I wish I had time to show you what I did with them, but I have to finish getting ready for work. Have a beautiful Friday!
