Olivier came home this weekend to celebrate
his 23rd birthday. Christian
was 4 years and two weeks old when Olivier was born. Struggling every winter with two indoor boy’s
birthday parties sometimes had me asking “Why me?” Fortunately, today they are both grown up
enough to sort out their own celebrations.
I can’t believe that February is on its way
out already. Like almost everywhere else
we’ve had non-stop rain. Though we did
have a couple of days of sunshine, but usually with a cold wind. There are one
or two violets in the garden and around the village quite a few daffodils in
flower.
Just before Valentine’s Day I had my
monthly Glossybox with a rather interesting make-up pencil that I never thought
would have such an interesting effect. Those
who have followed my blog for a while will know that my eyebrows dropped out
about 7 years ago. I learnt how to draw
them in, but they do tend to look as if they’ve been drawn with a crayon. I had a clear wax crayon which normally you
use to slick down your natural eyebrows.
I was a little disappointed that it wouldn’t be much use to me… or so I
thought. A little bit of wax picks up
and emphasizes the one or two hairs that I have and makes the overall effect
more natural. So now you know.
