Ramblings of a Southern Goddess

About Me

Location: Louisiana, United States

The Southern Goddess pretends she's a goddess, but in reality (she tries to stay in touch,occasionally), she's a full-time working wife, mom, full-time college student, garden lover, wannabee writer, horsewoman, and scrapbooker who pretends she lives in an old South antebellum home surrounded by lovely people who just live to serve her every whim. In truth, she struggles to keep up with day to day life while dreaming of the day when her house is clean, laundry is all done, errands are run, and her life is easy. She pretends she has all the time in the world, but really, she would love to have more time to ride her horses, record her family history in scrapbooks, write profound and inspirational poetry and catch moments in time with her camera. Oh, and blog. She shares her life with hubby, Monkey (not Rhett), Ava (the greatest "teenager" on Earth), four dogs (Lady Bella Grace, Blue Daisy, Captain and Teki) and Robert, the cat who thinks he's God.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

And I'm telling ya...I'm not beholding it this week. Ugh. I just walked by a mirror in the restroom and scared myself.

My hair looks like a rat's nest. My eyes are dark and puffy. My honker looks like I got into a bar fight with Pyscho. Make-up. What make-up?

My clothes are cute as could be. Mid-rise dark wash jeans, really precious high heeled boots, cute top. But they are being worn on a fightful sight. Ugh.

I think it has a lot to do with stress. A lot to do with needing sleep. A lot to do with needing to make some healthy lifestyle changes. A lot to do with needing to take more time for myself. A lot to do with a lot of things.

But the fact remains...I'll be avoiding mirrors for the rest of the day.
