FILERS, DAY BEFORE..4 HOURS AFTER
Well, I decided to let you see some pictures of the fillers I had done. Now, I want you to keep in mind that the picture is only 4 hours after the procedure. And that it takes 2 full weeks for the filler to get to their maximum effect. They absorb 1000 times their weight in water so the difference will continue to be evident. Note where you can see the needle mark down my frown lines and around my mouth. Plus there were other injections you cannot see. Notice how smooth the frown lines are compared to picture one. And if you will look at the right, bottom corner of my mouth you will see a very deep wrinkle and it is virtually gone with the fillers. The smaller lines will gradually diminish over the next two weeks. I will post other pics with more recent results next week. But would appreciate your feed back on this one. I had one of those night where sleep kept eluding me. Always just beyond my grasp. I was up at 12:45 and stayed up until 3:15. I finally fell back to sleep until 6:30. I feel like I have been run over by a truck. I do not function well with out my 4 hours of straight sleep. Unfortunately, I am not a day time napper. Plus I don’t have time to take a siesta.I had a man here yesterday that is going to paint my upstairs hall/office. Normally, we do all our own work but this job requires scaffolding and he has all the right tools. He is a younger guy, late twenties, just married. He seems to know what he is talking about. I hope he is up to the job because there is a lot of drywalling that needs to be repaired at the seams. The last guy didn’t have a clue about feathering out the seams. You can see where every piece meets another. Bad, bad, bad!!!! He told me what to get for paint quantity. I use a flat or velvet finish on the walls. He is also doing the banister and repairing cracks in that. I am using a semi gloss latex on that. He will be starting on April 14, this is after Easter weekend. He could start right away but with our cruise coming up we really don’t want to get into that kind of mess. This will also give us the weekend before he starts to clear out the room, remove base boards and tear up the horrid carpet. I may even tape off the border myself even though he said he can do it. His rates are very reasonable, $15.00/hour. If he is any good I may get him to do the spare bedroom and this is basically just straight painting.I think I am going to give up my little business of getting groceries for people and doing house work. I am finding that it cuts into my time too much and I often feel stressed about it. I also find that it is hard on my body as I work flat out. The next day I am always sore in my knees. The groceries always takes an hour minimum and I usually have to lug them upstairs or down a long walkway. And I am only charging $12.00/hour. So it is hardly worth my time and effort with the gas cost factored in.Had a nice visit with my daughter yesterday. She is looking for an apartment for the first of April. Presently, she lives with her boyfriend at his parent’s house. This was suppose to be a temporary situation. They were suppose to get an apartment of their own months ago. But he is a mama’s boy and does not want to move out. Why would you when it is basically free rent, food, lights, laundry etc.???? He is going to be 26 years old and he has never been on his own!!!! My daughter can’t take living there anymore. It’s not that the parents aren’t great to her because they are. It is a matter of privacy and space. She is fed up trying to light a fire under his butt so she is going out on her own and if he doesn’t like it too bad. She will then see if their relationship improves any, ie. He is more willing to cut the apron strings. If not she is going to call it quits. She says she refuses to be a surrogate mum to him. I totally agree with her.Well, I have been long winded in this journal so I will sign off for now. I wish you all a wonderful day. Debbie
