This is one of those days when self portraiture is not so much an exciting adventure of self discovery but one that is mostly just challenging.

My skin is dry and flushed, my brow furrowed with a headeache and just being run down.j

My hair is unkempt.

Day 4 of a bug that is going through the family and it is my turn.

Although I didn't want too, I did go out this morning to take my youngest to her play therapy appointment.
