I don't wear a stitch of makeup. EVER! It makes my mother and sister crazy. I wish I knew how many hours of time I've saved over the past ## years by not having to 'put on my face.' I'd like to rub it in their painted faces! ;-)ChiTown Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240876368610100419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193817821028926017.post-86558398706145054302010-11-04T19:02:45.551-04:002010-11-04T19:02:45.551-04:00Brilliant post Clippy, you had me laughing as usua...Brilliant post Clippy, you had me laughing as usual.

I always imagined that putting on make-up had an almost theatrical effect; like it enabled the wearer to assume a role or play a part.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133900289384226725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3193817821028926017.post-17256257097712412302010-11-04T08:19:02.619-04:002010-11-04T08:19:02.619-04:00Suz: That is so TRUE!

Who's willing to take that risk? Not you.

I am resigned to waiting; thankfully she doesn't take too long.<br /><br />Often we arrive somewhere by car and she insists on putting her make up on before getting out - but we're only going to the supermnarket I say. Makes no difference; I still have to wait.The bike shedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05195882998271591934noreply@blogger.com
