Resolution [1]

The Little Owl
Albrecht Dürer (1471 – 1528)


going to bed earlier

when you get to a certain age
you have to make a choice
between an extra hour in the day
or black rings around your eyes

I have reached that age

which is a nuisance
because I needed that extra hour

    She'd be happy to advise you on a concealer.

  4. So what happens when you go to bed earlier and still have black rings? I am referring to myself and not you of course!

  5. It is my dearest wish that the day started an hour later than it does. Surely we can all band together and go to work an hour later, dark circle free.

  7. I am a Black Ringed Harpie....... its not just the eyes that suffer from that extra hour (My very own Mr M will testify to that......)

  11. Shhhh, I have a secret to share with you. I just discovered Garnier's under eye black circle and bag removing roll on thingy with concealer in it. I am SURE it is the answer to both our prayers. Those nice people on the TV wouldn't exaggerate, would they?

    I shall let you know how I get on.
