What is Wrong with this Picture?

ChinPerhaps you’re asking what IS this picture? It will shock, amaze and perhaps even disgust you.

This, Intrepid Web Surfers (IWS’s), is a magnified close up of my chin. As you can see, I haven’t shaved for a few days. Those thick dark fibrous filaments sprouting from my skin, are stubble. Now for the shocking part. Those light, almost invisible strands to the left of the photo, are also stubble hairs. Which means, shock, horror, gulp, that I’m going grey. And that means, ladies and gentleman, that I am officially getting OLD.

And that my IWS’s, is a very sobering realisation.

It makes me think of how far I’ve come and where I’m going. Of how it could be, that success continues to evade me… and how I shall trap the crafty bugger before it is all too late!

Blogging Regularly

Filed under: Personal — masynee @ 8:03 pm

Ha-de-ha-ha-ha. What a joke that turned out to be. It wasn’t until Sherry asked if I still had a blog that I even remembered I had started this one.

But started it I did, and I will write regularly again. I will I will I WILL!!!

Tonight Jo has the flu and is lying in bed groaning. I just spent the last hour getting Willliam to sleep and he slept for a whole seven minutes… He’s currently rearranging a giant pile of clean washing that has overgrown the laundry and is spilling out into the hallway. He will wear himself out eventually. He has to. Doesn’t he?

In other news we’ve taken the somewhat psychotic decision to start a new business. (William is currently peeking around the washing pile and shouting BOO at me. Very cute. Now he’s burrowed his way through the baracade and has impregnated my office. The perimeter is breached! I’m under attack… HELP!)

William - launching an attack

More later…
