Being a beauty blogger when you don't feel beautiful
I've been having one of those days, well, more like weeks where I just don't feel great. I've been working an awful lot and I haven't had a lot of time to take care of myself, much less to blog, and the only thing I crave at the end of the day is a full night's sleep... which I'm still not getting. Self-care is a luxury I can only dream of right now.
On top of a pretty hectic work schedule, I've also started taking care of my boyfriend who was in a pretty bad cycling accident last week. He flew over his handlebars and has (temporarily) lost most of the use of his arms. Thank goodness he was wearing a helmet and the damage wasn't worse. WEAR YOUR HELMET. So once I get home from my full time job (which is already a major full time job), my second job caring for my boyfriend begins, and any planning for this blog gets pushed to the back-burner.
I wish I had the time right now to just come over here and blog about my favourite sunscreen for sensitive skin, my white eyeliner addiction, or my newest nailpolish (I did my nails before his accident and I think that's the last time they'll look truly nice until he gets one of his hands back) but I barely even have enough time to take a shower, much less try out a new look.
Luckily, I have some posts in my drafts folder that I will finish and send out over the next few weeks. But if I'm a bit quiet or my posts aren't so fresh? This is why. I don't have time to experiment, pamper myself and feel beautiful when I need to spend all my time being strong. That's all I can do right now, make sure I'm as healthy as I can be to take care of myself and my loved ones.
Send me all your vibes, friends. I'm bound to need them. I'll be back a little more frequently when I have time to look and feel beautiful again.
