January 20 Day 318: Grey Hairs

Posted byJenny QuinnPosted inPandemic, reflections

I needed a new “professional” photograph. I considered using a Zoom screenshot with appropriate background, but instead asked my husband to help out. He took more than 100 photos with various backgrounds.

I don’t particularly like photos of myself. And COVID isolation weight gain hasn’t improved my self image. I see myself on Zoom daily. Why do I look so different in his pictures. And when did I get all those grey streaks?
