My buddy Jess Gonacha made a really lovely post this morning about the real her. She and a friend had been talking about how many people feel the pressure to appear perfect in the blogging world. So, to give a little perspective on things, she and a friend posted pictures of themselves, first thing in the morning. Not perfect, but real.
I love this idea. Soooo without further adieu, here I am, in our bathroom, one evening after work. Notice the flippy, pony tail hair … the wrinkly shirt. When I get home, I usually change out of my work clothes to lounging clothes because its more comfy.
The T-shirt is something my guy bought in Canada when he was up there in August, its from a fishing place that he and his family have gone to for years. The ring is something I bought myself last year, and I love it and wear it almost every day. My earrings are something I’ve had since college … I actually lost one at one point and had to buy a new pair to replace one. Strangely, my sister had the same pair and had also lost one around the same time, so I gave her the other one.
Here’s a little tag I came across and decided to share in the spirit of sharing more about myself.
