| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 7:36:06 PM | | I've never experienced this problem worrying about how I look. Ohhhh boy do I have those days when my personality is definitely ugly. Not that I go out of my way to be nasty to anyone. When I have those ugly moods...I tend to shy away from people and keep to myself. It's best that way because if I'm in an ugly mood and someone says something stupid.....I can have thoughts that a serial killer would envy and I would definitely make the Incredible Hulk look like a tamed kitten. | |

| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 7:59:38 PM | | LOL oh yeah.. long hard battle with my self esteem resulted in many days like that. However I have learned if I go have a shower and take some time with my hair and put on just the littlest bit of makeup and then look at myself again, I don't feel so bad. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 8:08:58 PM | | Yes, and those seem to be the days people are just droppin by all dang day *growls* | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 8:14:55 PM | | Yep. What helps is to remember that mirrors reverse left to right so what you see is a bit of a distortion compared with what anyone else sees. So it might not really be an ugly day (and a pretty day might not really be a pretty day either). What also helps is thinking of all the people out there that are uglier and then remembering that you can brighten someone's day up by smiling at them even if you aren't attractive. Ugly personality days are said to be cured by going back to bed and getting out of the right side next time. My bed is by the wall so getting out of the wrong side doesn't seem to be an option. :) | |

| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 8:19:46 PM | | ok swblooking that's one I would not hold my breath for lol seriously though I have never had those days, but have had my grouchy moments. I think everydays great because it's another day I can share in the lives of my children and help mold tham. You never know each day which moment will be the last you or they'll have to remember you by. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 8:21:46 PM | | them* and I hope I don't have to remember myself lol that should be that you will have to remember of them or they remember of you | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 8:22:39 PM | Too funny....
Great name for those days....I never understood why nobody else recognized them. I could see by my image in the mirror but no one else seemed to notice.
And, no, I doubt men have them. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 8:30:35 PM | Yeah I have days like that when I'm so tired of trying to find certain balance in my life between being a wife a mother and a carer to my mum who is terminally ill....It's usual when mum god love her has had the worse day sickness wise and it bounces of me, but thats out of her hands too, on the whole mum is a very positive lady and that also projects into my personality too...
I have to laugh however because apparently my husband knows when I'm having a ugly day because he has told me I have a pair of purple pj's that are just "pure evil" when I put them on....And that's not in a good way folks either.....How can pj's be "pure evil" or make me like that I ask? lmfao!!!! | |

| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 9:32:51 PM | | You need to have bad days........so you can appreciate the good ones. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 10:28:07 PM | From my point of viewing, everything about you is right whether in proportion or let alone quality. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 10:33:00 PM | Yeah, I always feel ugly when i have my "time of the month" I feel fat and bloated and I don't want anyone to look at me or touch me or anything. Otherwise, unless i've just had a bad break up and have been crying i'm usually ok.
Peace

What? I disagree. I haven't felt that way since I was a teenager. Today, I look in the mirror and know I'm an ordinary woman (on the "looks" scale) on the best of days. I don't see how being fairly happy and accepting of that makes me "shallow." I just enjoy the good stuff, and don't let the bad things (and there are plenty) bother me. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 11:41:58 PM | Heck even men have this problem
like me for example...............not saying I'm hot and all....but if I dont get enough sleep or dont properly hydrate myself I can tell in my face, I look/feel like poop and it ruins my confidence for the whole day :( | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/11/2007 11:42:33 PM | I think everyone gets these days,I know i do lol...Usually round a certain time of the month,Many a time i've felt like climbing back in to bed and hiding under the duvet lol

SOMEONE SEND A RESCUE PARTY PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 4:52:31 AM | Uh...no.
I can't imagine being so vain that I don't want anyone to see me because I 'think' I look ugly that day. Jeez...what a desperate cry for attention. | |

Gardennut is having an Ugly Day.

If I could I would :)
I'm having one of those weeks. Everything is happening at once, and I haven't had one minute alone at my house since before christmas. The only time I'm alone is after I drop the girls off at school, and am walking back to the house. I don't remember a time when I've even had enough time to use the bathroom without someone banging on the door...or eating without the phone ringing or a knock at the front door.
I've noticed that I have the "ugly days" when I'm tired, and there's too much going on. I desperately need some "me" time. | |

| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 6:03:51 AM | Could these feelings be brought on by the Season?

| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 6:04:20 AM | | Could these feelings be brought on by the Season? Most of the posters who suffer seem to be from places that have a Real Winter. I know people who feel like this anytime of the year but I bet it's worse when you wake up to a dreary day. Maybe something like S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder). I can look out my windows and see the snow on the mountains, that's a lot different than having to live with it for months. | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 6:06:55 AM | I think both sexes have days where they feel like a can of smashed *ssholes!!!
I have had my fair share...though I find them days the more relaxing one's!  | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 6:12:23 AM | | Oh my God..most definately have days like that,nothing goes right,clothes dont look right,nothing matches,hairs a mess...!Aarrgggghhhhh... | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 6:37:15 AM | john I disagree I don't need to have days like that to appreciate the good ones. I appreciate everyday that I wake up, for I did and was able to get around and do the things I want and need to do. I am always thankful for that.
Also I wanna inquire about this can of smashed *ssholes..................Is this something you find stocked on the store shelves in Canada? LOL | |

| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 6:37:38 AM | | Here it's called potted meat........... | |
|
| Ugly days Posted: 1/12/2007 7:53:59 AM | Ooohh, boy! Do I ever have those days!
Recipe for an "oogie" day, lol:
I woke up late so I had to yank my hair back into a bun. Don't have time to coordinate an outfit so I grab a standard pair of black slacks and a shirt but somehow I don't like the two together but I don't have time to change. No time to properly apply make-up which leads to everyone asking, "are you feeling ok?". Certainly, no time to accessorize so I hear my mothers voice in my head all day, "a good Southern girl never leaves the house without earrings and lipstick"....sorry, mom! So I spend the whole day hiding in my office.
On those days, I try to tell myself that I don't look nearly as bad as I think I do but it never works, lol!!! | |
