This is how you know you've made the change
So even though my profession was in healthcare before it was "home engineer", I still got to wear comfortable scrubs but still had to maintain appearance. I still got up 3 hours before I went to work and had my hair, make-up, jewelery and clothes just right. I could even make a pony tail look shiek! Anywho~ I realized the other day when I actually had the time to put on "some" make-up, actually straightened my hair and threw on a pair of jeans and shirt, I was getting complimented on how good I looked and "what was I doing, I look great!" I couldn't figure it out, I thought I really did the bare minimum. Then it hit me! All anyone sees me in these days are my yoga pants, a sweatshirt, maybe, MAYBE some foundation, and a ponytail, which by the way was thrown up the moment I rolled myself out of bed to start my day! So I thought to myself....WHERE THE HELL DID I GO!?!?!? My poor husband, God love the man! Here I used to wear nothing but skimpy matching Victoria Secret sets and now I climb into bed in my granny panties and flannel pants. And he still tells me I'm pretty! Which makes him a SAINT in my eyes! I haven't shopped for myself in almost 3 years really and why...because I was pregnant for most of those years! So...I have made myself a pact that this frumpy shlumpy woman who is now me will be no more! I might be known 24 hours a day (and proud to be known) as Mom, Momma, and Mommy..but I'm still me, I'm still young and I've still got it (uh, for the most part!)
