bad day bad night

Lets be honest....

tired, nervous, puffy eyes, pale, stressed eyes, spots and dry skin, with lank hair.

So I am choosing this point to improve upon.

the last 36 hours have been difficult- I felt very drugged and worn out.  I slept loads and didn't leave the house.  I was overly hot and couldn't concentrate on reading anything, or even a tv show.  Added to which, I missed a dose of one of my tablets.

On the plus side, I managed to be up and about in time to take my car in for a service.  I feel more energetic today (though to be fair that wouldn't be hard) and feel like I could try to go down the shops this afternoon for a walk.

Sun is out, sky is blue, so off to try to make the most of it.

mini rant of the day

When referring to Make-up for Ever H.D. foundation, please note. It is aitch dee, as in short for high definition.  It is not, and never will be haitch dee.  There is no such letter as haitch, and saying it like that makes you look like an idiot, regardless of your expensive foundation.

Hello, if you have found this....

Welcome to my page.  I am in the process of battling clinical cyclic depression, and wanted to create something to record some of my experiences, examine my mood swings and try to involve myself in my interests that include beauty products, cookery and generally take better care of myself.  Who knows, I may even enjoy myself....?

Today I treated myself to a Sainsburys tagine dinner- as I haven't been feeling up to cooking much for the last couple of weeks.  It seems relatively healthy, and tasty, so I could almost convince myself I was hungry when I ate it.  I would recommend this item to anyone who finds curry too spicey most of the time.  It has a much more delicate flavor.

Eating has been awkward to say the least, of late.  My mood swings are pretty full on at the moment so apart from my constant desire to have a cup of tea on the go, I haven't really been feeling the hunger thing.  I am sure this is doing no good what so ever to my skin.  My face is managing to be both greasy/ spotty and dry and flaky at the same time.  I know the tablets and the disturbed sleep are contributing to this state so I am going to try my lotions and potions as well as trying to eat better to try and improve matters.

I will keep this short as my concentration isn't what it could be at the moment, but am glad I have started this little project, and will try to do an update later in the week.
