THE REST OF MY TRAVEL PLANS and What's Keeping Me Up

Ok, so i'm just venting.  It is the middle of the night and I just can't sleep so I am thinking about all my travel plans as they remain.

I am going to enjoy Turkey head back to Rome fly out of Rome, go home for a few days and fly out to New York City for a week to shop for cool clothes for the reunion and eat at my favorite places and yes we have a list of things we plan to eat.  LOL.  Then........ I fly into my hometown for my family reunion,  I will be there for 2 weeks.  So I still have close to 2 months of vacation ahead of me.

I know i'm going to start missing my own bed soon cause I have been gone so long, but i'm enjoying this part of my vacation.

When I get home from my family reunion I will be getting my eyes done.  Dam this is one expensive summer,  and having my eyes done adds on a couple more thousands but it's worth it.   I am excited to get my eyes done, a little nerveous but very excited. 

OK, yall.  I gotta get to sleep so that I can enjoy Turkey tomorrow.  I just had to vent what's keeping me up tonight.  

Later  :)

I know what missing home is like big time.  I am so sick of shuttling N to S.  If you want to meet up pm me when in NYC. 

OK, eyes?  What are you doing to those beautiful eyes?  Please don't tell me plastics cause that would be betond insane.  Lasiks perhaps?  I want it, I'm covered, I'm chicken, lol. 

Yep, plastics, Blepharoplasty. I have huge bags under my eyes and I have been wanting to get them done for a while.



I went to 6 diff surgeons over the past three months and I found one I like, so it is planned. I hate my face with these bags and there is no hiding them because they are all full. The doctor said there are three under eye bags and all three of mine are full.



They make me look so tired and old.

I can't say **** except I never noticed in your pics.  You look much younger than your age. 

I've got bags too plus flapping neck skin and a face that's fallen in in the center.  If I had the funds and the courage I'd get it all fixed too. 

Now I've got to look up what "full" means and how you can have three bags.  That explains why it looks like I have two bags that expand and contract. 

Under your eyes there are three fat bags one in the middle, on near your nose and one on the outer edge of your eyes. As you age the muscle gets weak and sags and the fat pads look puffy and make you look tired and old.

The reason you don't see them in my pics is because I don't post them, and I don't post close ups. But trust me they are there and they are huge, just like my dad.

It is a easy fix so why not.

Hey, MSW is right, you look much younger now, so when you're finished, don't be surprised if they start carding you again!!  LOL

When you're in Istanbul & you have time, look for a textile shop accross the street from the Sirkeci Konak hotel on Taya Hatun Sokak No:5 34120 Sirkeci - http://www.sirkecikonak.com/en/location

The owner is Kurdish & lived in the Bronx for several years & is a wealth of information,  fun to talk to & has good prices & definately quality, as I love the stuff I got from him  & wish I'd bought more.  He doesn't really barter, but may come down on the price a little.  His hame is ingen & pronounced Engine.  But, beware of the carpet place on the oppostie corner, the staff at the Konak told me that they had several complaints from customers about them.

Thanks GiGi,  I may look younger but because of the bags I look very tired all the time.

I am so dam sick of textile, rug, carpet, flying carpet, maps and all of those dam shops.  LOL.

I have gone into 2 of them and in Egypt I went into 3 and it's the same dam thing they give you a drink and try to sell you $10,000 rugs.  I don't care how many dam knots are in it i'm not paying that much for a rug.  LOL.

But thanks for the info.  LOL.
