Did we forget FFFC this week?! Let’s hear those confessions! *Not guaranteed to be flame-free.* (And since this is posting late, we can carry it into the weekend if anyone’s game.)
Things I have/have not done for the last 3 weeks: -haven't worn jeans except for grocery shopping and the family birthday party last weekend. all other days have been jogger sweats or yoga pants/shorts -haven't worn a bra except for the family birthday party. There's been the occasional use of a bralette, but otherwise these girls are swinging free (bonus to DH haha) -pretty sure we've HIO more times during these 3 weeks of quarantine than we have since the start of the year (IF treatment is such a buzz kill) -I have NOT stayed in my PJs. I always change into something else for the day. -I did makeup the day of the birthday party and just concealer another day before going out to the grocery store, otherwise it's just been my usual skin prep with moisturizer, etc every day and nothing else on top.
Other random confession: sometimes I get weirdly aroused when using Q-tips in my ear. also when they scratch an itch in your ear - that may be the best feeling in the world
