The make up debate from yesterday got me thinking...
I have not blow dried or styled my hair since DD was born almost 19 months ago. Who has the time. I'm lucky that it's stick straight and air dries pretty well, but I actually prefer a shorter cut and have been avoiding one because I know that when it's shorter i'll have to blow it dry and use a flat iron most days. Instead whenever I go in for a cut the directive is "take whatever is necessary, just leave enough for a ponytail."
for some reason I still go to a fancy salon and pay $70 to get a good hair cut and style and then I get home and do absolutely nothing for 6 months until I go in and get it cut again. I've never colored it because I know there's no way on earth I'd be able to deal with the upkeep.
My nails are always painted, but I do them myself every weekend.

I try not to put it in a pony at the office though. At least then it's not completely obvious that I DGAF.

So I guess my confession is that I judged other women so hard about having plastic surgery and now I'm jumping on the band wagon as soon as I can!!
FTR I was leaning toward just living with my twin skin as I didn't want to risk any issues with anesthesia for cosmetic reasons but now that I learned I have a decent sized hernia that I have to go under for anyway... full steam ahead!
I've been trying to find the military wife poster who was surprised by her third child born with Down syndrome. She had posted her Instagram info and I missed it. I was so amazed by her story and strength. Anyway I can't find her on any of the old threads now... so here I am confessing my creeping while also hoping someone knows who I'm referring to
FTR I don't mean any of that in a negative regard to the navy as I am so grateful for all active and retired military folks! There are just high standards which I completely understand the need for...

My son is 14 months and goes to an in-home daycare run by the sister of my husbands best friend. He has become addicted to his pacifier and its creating problems at home. I decided this weekend would be the best one to take the pacifier away in regards to my work schedule. We started last night. At home, he only has it to sleep but at daycare he has it all the time. I had mentioned previously to daycare lady that I want it gone.
Well, last night I posted on Facebook that night 1 of paci weaning was under way. I posted this so she would see it and know I mean business on the no paci deal. She commented that it was not a crime to let him have it and that I was doing my son a disservice by taking it away. I explained that it's become a major problem at home and that his pediatrician wanted it gone to months ago. She replies that the doctor doesn't need to know and it's her opinion that I'm only going to hurt my son by taking it away so early.
Me: 36; DH: 38
DD: 7; DS1: 4; DS2 due 6-21-17!

I use adult hair products on my 2yo. We wash with Johnson&Johnson baby wash, but I haven't even tried children's conditioner. She has super curly hair, and it's been a rat's nest this winter. It comes from DH, so I was letting him handle it (what do I know about curly hair??) and he was trying coconut oil. It was kind of working, but then we ran out. I used my salon conditioner on her one night, and they turned into lovely little ringlets. And I always use a detangler spray that I used to use on myself but don't anymore.
There. My confession.

And my other love: writing
Picture because I'm an AW:
I did also decide to go on a "encouraged, but optional" trip for work next week partially since DD is being a giant pain and a night in a hotel didn't sound so bad after the yelling from 5-6am this morning.

I am the worst at any sort of "girly" upkeep. Hair, eyebrows, nails. They're just on the back burner. My poor husband.
@kfitz1900 I'm not sure what her bump name is but I think I'm following her on Instagram. I'll have to check.
I wish so much that I could air dry my hair and it not look like hell. I also can't wear it up without a headache so I wash it every other night and straighten or curl it a little in the morning. I hate doing my hair.
I also use real adult hair products on my DD. My conditioner and its a 10 leave in make her hair so much easier to handle.

My mom always wore/wears makeup, and I have worn it since I was a teenager. Granted, I wore too much then and a lot less now (part of the growing up process, I guess?). But my younger sister (14) and my brothers' wives hardly wear any at all. Ever.
None of the women on DH's side wear makeup unless it's a special occasion, so even with minimal makeup I tend to look all made up when we have family gatherings.
One of his SILs has only had her makeup done for her wedding or when she is on stage in some way, so basically every time she applies it herself it ends up looking like stage makeup or Michelle Duggar. Her husband hates makeup, but I think I know why...
Edit: I think I meant to post this in the UO thread from yesterday, but oh well.
