frumpy

I've been a total frump lately.

And for that, I feel like I should take a moment to apologize publicly.

Phew. I just had to get that off my chest.

I realize those most affected by my frumpiness are my loving husband and son, but my coworkers, neighbors, and friends have had to suffer because of my sorry-ness as well.

Maybe it's just the winter blues but no part of me -- my hair, skin, nails, make-up, etc. -- seem to be cooperating lately. It's downright embarrassing. (I'm seriously ready to star on an Oprah-makeover show. Too bad she's just finished filming her last episode!)

I know, I know -- "it's the inside that counts" and I DO believe that. But you gotta admit, how you feel you look on the outside has a definite impact on your confidence level and relationships with those around you.

Hoping I can pull out of this rut soon...but in the meantime, know that if I've been a bit unsocial it really is me, not you.
