Because I don’t have time to take NEW photos. If I did, I might have taken a photo of my orangey stained hands. (I just henna’d my hair today, and had run out of plastic gloves, but didn’t discover that until it was prepared and ready to be slopped on my hair. So… orange hands.) Or, I might have tried to get a good shot of the color of what my hair looks like RIGHT after I’ve used the henna…
But no, I have nothing like this for you today.
So… instead… you get this photo I’m still not very happy about, though other people have said it’s nice.
I have GOT to get over my self image issues and just accept what I look like. Maybe someday.
It’s an enormous file, because I was too lazy to make it smaller.
Now… back to sewing furiously so I don’t start out completely naked for my first try at burlesque in front of people on Sunday. That would be so anticlimactic.

You need to love what you see in the mirror every time you look at it, because whatever is there is BEAUTIFUL! HHNT!

I’m looking at your beautiful pic and wishing I looked that beautiful!

I’m not sure what you see when you look at that photo, but I see a very lovely, beautiful and sexy woman.
If you’re like me, I suspect you tend to focus in on and only see the parts you don’t like, while the rest of us don’t even notice that but just see the totality. It’s hard for women to be content with how we look, I try to make myself focus on what I love about myself, my boobs, my eyes, my nose, my ass and not the parts I totally hate, ahem, my flabby belly. Still sometimes it’s the only thing I see.
At any rate, you look great to me. Happy HNT.

We are our own worst critic and so many people can tell you what we all see, a beautiful wonderful woman, but it’s you that has to see it.
Love you honey!
And naked burlesque… um… isn’t that the point??
