I wore this mask to Walmart, and all the other old people shopping the senior hour had on mask of some kind.
This is a N95 whatever that means, a car pulled in my driveway and my Friend Jackie and her daughter CC, had brought me 2 of these because my home made one made my glasses fog in the cold store. I stood the correct distance from the car and the 3 of us talked and talked...
The good news is, No make up needed, and even if my hair is a mess, know one can recognize me.
I did wear a little make up because like wearing clean underwear when you go out, the face under the mask has to look OK.
I mean what if I got in a car accident, or fell down in the store parking lot and the EMTS came to help me and saw me with no makeup.... Then I would be transported to ER where the doctors and nurses would see me with no make up. PLUS I might be there for weeks with NO MAKE UP ON..
of Course no one could come visit, so I guess it doesn't matter. Linda Chapman do you wear makeup under your mask? Myra?
I got a basket for a lady that was in line without one, she shared a wipe with me for helping her. we chatted from 6 feet away while in line and it was odd talking to someone and not being able to read their face... And the Oddest of All, is I felt like I was a bird let out of a cage... Woo HOO! a Walmart speed shop. we all go fast and get out... But I did get to TALK... Bob says he is afraid i might blow up from lack of
DO you vote for number 1 or 2 of MY BEST SIDE? in case you need help 1 is at the top and 2 at the bottom... OK i will be rambling on off now...... Bob was right I MAY EXPLODE right here on this blog.

I like your first picture better. The last one has you looking mysterious and like some kind of spy. Remember when Jethro in The Beverly Hillbillies wanted to be a double naught spy? TOTAL non sequitur!! Anyway, I am so glad you have a fancy proper mask! They are worth more than gold now. Matter of fact, don't spread it around that you have one...
how great that you have a mask... we made ours at home and it looks... well... like all our diy projects..LOL
You look good. I haven't worn lipstick in weeks!
I'm so glad you protect yourself from corona ... very sensible! I can't choose between 1 and 2 ... so I vote for both!
Stay at home, stay healthy! Hugs!

Let's face it (no pun intended) masks are fast becoming the new fashion statement. I just crocheted one last night - and going to have another go today, refining that prototype... YAM xx
I swear ... it's like shopping on a movie for some kinda sci-fi thriller isn't it?
I'm not a social person, so getting in, and getting out as quickly as I can is all the much better for me. I like your pose in #1 best.
Keeping my fingers crossed that my comment publishes. Internet issues on my side.
I can't choose because I think both sides look good.
I went to Walmart Saturday for the first time in several weeks. I had heard that they were only letting 50 people in at a time but there were WAY more than that in the store and the lines were long
Hello Sandra,
You look great in your mask. I never wear makeup. For our state it is mandatory now for everyone to wear mask in the grocery and pharmacy stores, any retail store. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy, healthy new week!
you look great in your mask. i vote for both!
i too wear mask in the grocery and pharmacy stores. and i always wipe down the handle of a shopping cart before holding it.
have a wonderful week ahead!
I vote for the first one, too. Lol about the make-up
What a nice gesture, Jackie getting you that N95! (I wasn't sure what that was, either - except they're more precious than gold.)
Again, I'm laughing and nodding my head like a bobble-head doll about the cosmetics dilemma. I've been awfully lazy about applying make-up (not). Then, when I made an effort the other day, it did wonders for my morale. So yeah, at least I'm applying pencil to my non-existent eyebrows and liner. Still debating whether I want to brave WM tomorrow morning or just stick with the smaller market near home.
Forgot to vote! I'm going with #2, just because it looks like you're contemplating something naughty. :)))
I like the first one because of the twinkle in your eyes. I've not been off the property in 41 days now. A younger friend picks up and delivers groceries for me. Don't know when I'll venture forth again. I enjoyed shopping via your adventure in doing so. Thanks for sharing ~ FlowerLady
Today was my VERY first trip to Walmart since March 10th. I went at 8 am
not many inside but I had on my mask as did all employees and about 3/4 of the folks shopping. I hear you on the foggy glasses. LOL
Hugs Cecilia
PS I too love that no makeup required.
Got my super jollies from the comparison of no-make-up under mask comparison with mothers' admonitions to wear clean, no-holey underwear in case you were in an accident. Will young moms in years to come regale their teenaged daughters with Covid-19 mask and makeup horror stories?
# 1...
Yay for TALK.....I can see you are a happy camper now...
Hang in there, you can do this...
WE can do this !!
You look good from any side! And I'm glad you got to talk to someone! lol It will feel funny when I finally get to walk around in a grocery store. I'll be lost! lol Glad you got a good mask and that you're wearing it. Not everyone wears on here....ggggrrrrrr!!!
That was nice of your friend to bring the masks over and nice of you to get a cart for the lady in the store. I vote for #1
I think that mask works for you on both sides :)
I hope you and Bob are doing good and staying safe.
Either one is good. I told the guys at the garage the other day that, you know you don’t get out much when a trip to the garage is exciting .
Everytime we go out to a store, which is less and less these days, and I see the various forms of bought and homemade masks it reminds me of some bad science fiction plot. I wouldn't be surprised to read that an author is actually writinbg a story based on mask wearing. I also liked the first mask photo of yours in this post, Sandra. As for no makeup, my reply is "who cares" but clean underwear is quite a different story.
N95 means it keeps 95% of all particles out - it is the best you can buy I think. I have one - bought it a long while ago. I am having trouble mentally wearing it - like conspicuous. Isn't that silly - others are wearing them. I tell you what - I just am watching GA is opening up this Friday - Phase 1 - I can't believe it. You looked cute in both pictures. sandie
I actually take my glasses off when I put my mask on because they fog up so badly! I like the sassy look in your eyes in the second picture!
Speaking of not getting out much -- we did our speed shopping yesterday, and I was exhilarated today because I did some laundry, which meant several trips to the laundry room! (It's in a separate building so I had to go outside.) How exciting is that??
I like the second picture best, because of the angle of your head.
In more ways than one I do not think you have a bad side :)
I vote for both sides. I wear a mask when I saw stuff or work with reno and demo and I've got makeup on. Some days I don't. Like today, I have smudged makeup on.
