Day 165 - Day 167 The Magic of Makeup! And ooooh The Wrist

I successfully wore makeup for the first time in months!!  And it did the job!  Day 165 I did my hair and makeup and looked pretty darn normal!?

Up close it's a bit flakey and cakey, but it'll due!  From a distance NO ONE would look twice!

So painful.  SO swollen.  So ANNOYING.

Day 159 - Day 163 Exhausted, Flaring, and First Photo Shoot in Months

These few days were blah.  The wrist was so disgusting and annoying.  Flared a bit and was REALLY tired.   I felt very very exhausted these days but somehow pulled my crap together to take some engagement pictures of my brother and his fiancĂ©. I chugged a gallon of water over a few hours.  At the shoot I ITCHED AND ITCHED and my icepack busted open on my collar bone and ended up giving me a rash several days later, but we produced some insanely gorgeous and touching photos (I shared a few below).  It was the first real photo session since TSW started.  Have missed it.

The good thing about the flares is they aren't lasting as long.  But they still suck.

Day 163


163
This was from an icepack that broke on my collarbone during the photoshoot.   It caused a major breakout.

Moisturizer withdrawal lasts only a bit for me.
