I really really want a makeover. I want to have someone (who is really cool) give me a new hairdo, new makeup regime, and pick me out some new clothes. I want to look really cute and stylish. I don't feel like I know how to look good anymore. I am in a mommy rut. Big time! I look back at pictures of me pre-children, and like what I see. I don't like what I see now. It's very depressing. I know the grass is always greener, but I feel like I would just feel better about myself if I felt more confident. Of course there is a lot I need to do to make this all happen, and that's why it is so depressing. I can do it myself, but it will take a lot of hard work, and discipline. How badly do I want it? Really really badly.
I will be turning 30 in just a few weeks (May 4th) and I don't want to enter my 30's as a big blob. So, my goal for my 30th year is to get out of my mommy rut, and get a makeover. By myself, yes, but nonetheless, a transformation of some kind.
I went walking this morning with our new walking group and now have a pedometer. My ankles and shins feel sore already! I am way out of shape! I just need to keep it up, and get into a habit of walking. It's so good for you in so many ways. And it's easy and free.
Holy cow! I was just re-reading this post and it hit me that I will be 30! I am speechless. I don't even know what to say. 30. Hmmm.....
And on a different note, April is Autism Awareness month. My friend Christy has a son with Autism, and she talks about it on her blog. Go check it out, leave a comment about how you heard about her blog (from me of course) and maybe you can win a prize!

I want a makeover

I've never been stylish but I know what you mean about wanting a makeover. Do you have a certain hairstyle/color in mind? Have you found a good hairdresser in the area? I bet KC has some awesome day spas that for a pretty penny they'd hook you up with hair/makeup/massage/etc...
You only turn 30 once!
30s are the new 20s, haven't you heard? We still get to be cool and youthful-ish but we're not as dumb anymore.
I agree with Christy. Go get some pampering. You deserve it.
YES, YES, I know what you mean about looking at old photos of yourself and liking what you see, but not now! I can relate. . . I did just get a haircut/highlight and it made me feel a little better, but girl--I would love to do so much more! I understand. Hope you get to do something fun for your birthday!
Kerry, I think you're saying what a lot of us are feeling. I am SO wanting the same thing! I just bought a double jogging stroller, so hopefully using that will motivate me enough to start exercising more. As for the whole hair/make-up/clothes issue - I'm the same. I just want someone else to do it for me! I'm turning 30 this year, too (in December). Not that I feel old at all, but I do feel the need for something DIFFERENT! (And not baby related!)
Kerry you always look great! Go to the Plaza and get a makeover. Not that you need it, but a little spruce will go a loooong way! Enjoy your walking group!
