Cool and damp to start, warming, with possible overcast all day. The sun did come out yesterday and it was quite nice in the late afternoon. Maybe that will happen again today! Or not.
Didn’t end up doing much yesterday. Caught up on auction stuff, and did a bit of domestic bliss.
I hope today will be better. I’ve got D2 at the orthodontist in the morning, then both kids need rides in the afternoon. That means I’ve got to get my errands done without too much faffing about. Some can slide until Wed. but some need to get done today.
The title refers to me having shaved off my beard and mustache yesterday. I’ve been wearing them for better than 5 years, so it’s a big change. I caught a glimpse of myself in a mirror, and I thought I was looking tired and haggard, with the grey, so I took the big step. I’d forgotten how prominent my scar was… when I picked up D1 from school the first thing she said was “gee, you can really see your scar.” Kids.
I’ll probably grow it back, facial hair seems to be the norm these days, and I already miss “playing” with it. In the mean time, I’ll give it a chance. Funny thing is W hasn’t said anything yet. She gave me some funny looks at dinner, but didn’t say anything about the missing hairs…Could be she’s just messing with me.
Sometimes it’s good to make a change, to break habits and set patterns. We’ll see if this was one of those times.
Stack something today.
