I should be sleeping Part 2

Having trouble sleeping again. I do need the sleep because without it, I'm a little more wobbly in my walk. Maybe it's that I slept for nearly a week straight and now don't want to miss anything. Oh well, I'm sure it will catch up soon and I'll be rested again.

Today hasn't been as smooth as the previous two days but that's expected. The doc said I would likely have see-saw days when I feel like a million bucks, then struggle a little more. Over time, I just need to keep making progress.

I did meet my goal today: Victoria's secret perfume, pretty toes, brushed hair. I even added some make-up! Wow. That's progress. Tomorrow's goal is to match that, plus 10 minutes of Wii Fit. It should be funny to callibrate my balance for the first time post-op! If you haven't tried Wii Fit, you should! It's a lot of fun. I especially like the balance routine where you aim your head at soccer balls.

Oh, do any of my girlfriends out there have a miracle cure for dark circles under the eyes? I look hideous.

Dark circles--It isn't a miracle cure, but Bisque from Bare Minerals hides the darkness under the eyes.
Love you,

I immediately thought of tea bags, not kowing why. But I googled this...

"Most of the ingredients for the home remedies / treatments are lemon, tomato, cucumber, honey, milk, turmeric powder and tea bag."

I also read camomile is the best tea- or regular , I think its the tannins that do the trick. Best wishes... Hugs, Dawn

Hi Stacey,
It's Roseanna Dubinski from Bloomington. I've been following your progress and I am so glad to hear you are doing well. What a journey you've been on!! We will continue to pray for you as you make step by step progress.
I second the motion on the Bare Minerals concealer, it is pretty amazing. Just a little goes a long way. Agape, Roseanna

I heard the best cure for dark circles under your eyes is to mix diet coke and vaseline with whitening toothpaste and then apply liberally three times a day. Try it. I dare you.
