Well…at least one thing is now in my suitcase

Okay, so the last posting was a little silly.  These things cannot be helped.  Only tolerated.

I shall now do a sophisticated blog so you, my good friends, shall forget that brief lapse, fall, perhaps from my lofty perch of...hmm...I’m not sure where this sentence is going?  Best to leave it unfinished and move on to the elegant topic at hand.

I have decided to bring the new face powder that my sister Jennifer bought for me on the road trip to the Kootenays.  It is called “Jurlique” and it is very fancy indeed!  It smells really pretty and right under the brand name it says ”Lavender Silk Finishing Powder A translucent calming facial powder” Then on the back it says “A silky translucent facial powder that refines the complexion and helps reduce unwanted shine.  Leaves the skin fresh and radiant.”

Well, that’s definitely what is called for.  With this “change of life” thing I’m going through, my face could certainly use calming.  Not to mention, who wouldn’t want their skin to look fresh and radiant? 

Oh and then on the side of the box it says ”Beauty from Beauty Our herbs and flowers are gently tended and harvested by hand on our certified organic and biodynamic farms.” Even better!  If there aren’t a lot of chemicals and things, maybe I won’t be allergic to it.  Hopefully.  A terrible case of hives is not what springs to mind when I read “refines the complexion.” I’m allergic to so many shampoos and facial products it’s pathetic. 

Now, one would think that I would try out the fancy new face powder before I left, so that if anything untoward happened, ie: a rash. I would be able to lurk around in my house until my face cleared up.  Probably not the smartest time to try out a new product when I have a bunch of public speaking events to show up at.  But do I stray from this path?  NO!  I am not a timid sort!  Live wild, that’s what I say.  I’m bringing this face powder and I’m going to use it! 

Alright, enough fun, back to my packing.
