I so agree with you! That's why it's been on my list too! It's such a rush getting two teenage daughters out of house and dropping them off for school bus and i never have time for the quick bit of make-up. Always mean to put it on at work and usually never get to it!
Just wish I could get your motivation to go to the gym!!0 -

I only recently started to go back to the gym and making an effort with MYSELF. I just think i spend so much time looking after my son, my stepkids (who live with me), my husband and my house that it is about time i looked after myself and did something to make me feel better. I have quite bad depression at the moment, and i can honestly that going to the gym has helped me more than any pills ever have. I find going 1st thing on a morning is the perfect way to start up my day.Slimming World Challenge 2017 0/30.5lb
