What was the last thing you did for play or fun?

The rest of this week and all of next is going to be rough at work. I have about a gazillion interviews to sit in on as a member of an interview panel, and some looming deadlines to meet before the start of next calendar year.

I took today off of work to decompress and get some things accomplished around the house.

These are tasks that I would consider fun!

One was creating a DIY Vitamin C Serum I found on Pinster (Pinterest, for all you normies). The recipe was easy enough. Heat-infuse grated carrot and grapefruit into oil. Make flaxseed gel. Mix the strained carrot/grapefruit oil with the flaxseed gel, and add Vitamin E and aloe vera gel.

My “serum” was not serum consistancy at all.

I made snot. Thick, yellow, brown-specked snot.

I didn’t want to let the snot, er, concoction go to waste so I applied it as a face mask. For a nail biting 30 minutes or so, I wondered if I was going to look like President Trump when I washed it off.

I had fun messing with my husband son whilst wearing said mask. The boy thought I had mustard all over my face. My husband, who is used to my wide array of face masks, was a tad concerned, given the bright color.

I didn’t play in the traditional sense, but I did have fun experimenting in the kitchen.

It doesn’t take a lot to amuse me.

Oh, and I’m happy to report I do not have an orange face. ☺️
