I am so guilty of having a poker face while working or making quirky faces when applying make up as if I was applying my own (opening my mouth while applying a clients lipstick). Softening my facial expressions has been an easy reminder once I caught a glimpse of myself in my computer screen! Hope you had a lovely weekend.  A great ending to a busy work week with  great company and dinner at a downtown favorite, here, Trying to re-create the great margarita with a huge ice cube we ended up at the new Ritz Carlton L.A. beautiful views and lots of cute couples posing for pics and some great music playing in the back round in the women's lounge I wish I could have tagged . 

sunday doggie classes are keeping me balanced.
