POISON IVY

I recently heard a comedian talking about a girl with a “bitchy resting face.” I laughed so hard because I’d never heard anyone refer to the term “resting face” before.
Then I had to wonder, is that me? Oh no, I think it might be. Some people tell friends of mine that I look mean and we laugh about it because I am a nice person! 90% of what you are telling people, you are telling them with your body language and face.

Sometimes, there is just a lot on my mind, so walking around with a big grin painted on, is not in the forefront of my thoughts at times, hence the bitchy resting face!
With that said, in editing these photos for the blog, I took a good look at myself and realized I may not come off as the friendly and fun person I actually am!

I love this new pleather top from Forever 21 because it’s got stretchy fabric on the sides and back so it bends and breathes. I really need the stretchy part because this past year of blogging has added 12 pounds to my frame! EECK! This year will be different!
With the new year of this blog, and all that comes with it,I’ve learned two things. I will not gain one more pound as I will be make time for the gym again and I will work on my resting face and try to smile more!
I suppose the issue is not living here in the moment enough, but instead I am constantly thinking six months down the line. If I am walking down the road…I am not really only walking down the road. I am thinking about my taxes, business, making dinner, have the dogs been to the Vet, why is our health insurance so high, when am I going to pay my car off, does my husband think I do enough around the house, do I care if my husband thinks I do enough around the house, why is my car insurance still so high when I keep get older every year and so does my car and various and sundry other things that warrant thought and concern.
And that’s my story! I suppose that is what is actually showing up on a bitchy resting face of most people. At least that’s my story.
