Just a little filler, just whiling away my days
I've been a little lax with the posts because honestly life these days leaves me unmotivated and exhausted. My cat, Pebbles, is getting weaker daily and has now come to a point where our vets are starting to say, 'She's not doing so good', and that is the hardest thing to hear. I'm dreading the day when they suggest that we put her down as so she's not suffering; it has been over a week since she has eaten and since last Tuesday she has been surviving off saline, glucose and protein drips twice a day.
If I suddenly disappear, it's because I'm focusing on my main priority: family.
Here's my look of the day for today. Darling Girl Cosmetics always cheer me up because they are such feminine and beautiful colors and the owner of DGC, Susan, is an absolute sweetheart.
I know my eyebrows need maintaining and my skin could do with more hydrating and my hair could be cleaner and my facial expressions could be happier but you know what? I'm not going to apologize for any of that and instead I'm just going to point my flaws out to you, shrug and ask so what do you care? (:
I used Frolic and Plunder and loved how they worked well together. Definitely made me happy as it's a subtle daily look and yet purple is involved but not overbearingly so. Before I felt restricted to only mixing purple and black together...well, black and every color really but thanks to the blogging world and learning more about makeup I'm more open to trying different colors together without playing it safe.
Being home in Sri Lanka this time around is surprisingly relaxing and I'm loving being at home for the holidays. I'm grateful for the time with my parents and of course my adorable critters...
I haven't mentioned this before but we actually have a tortoise! When we first moved into our house two years ago our gardener discovered a tortoise outside our gate with a broken shell. We took her to the vets and got her shell fixed up (that yellow, globby patch on her shell) and adopted her. Much to my surprise she has grown quite a bit since I last saw her and is still as frantic and solitary as ever!
Another surprise: I expected to arrive in Sri Lanka and face over a month of sunshine, humid days and blaring heat but instead it rains daily and we are pretty much flooded daily too! Ironically enough, back in Adelaide there has been torrential rains as well resulting in flooding. Could this be Earth giving us a hint?
I had a lot more posts that I had planned but I really have no motivation to do them unfortunately, stressing out about Pebbles' condition and my university career is just taking its toll on me. Hopefully soon I'll get some posts done. Until then I hope everyone is doing okay.
