I use a combination of the following daily prompts, with an odd one occasionally thrown in there for good measure.
Fandango’s Rules For the One Word Challenge. Today’s word is dumbstruck.
I am also using the Three Things Challenge for today #M724.
Your three words today are:
HORRIFIC
MUNDANE
NORMAL
**********
I am also using the Word of the Day Challenge which is authentic.
**********
I am also using the Rag Tag Community Daily Prompt which is blemish
**********
I am also using The Daily Spur prompt which is bulletin.
**********
And last is the “My Vivid Blog” daily prompt which is nucleus.

17-year-old Michelle stared dumbstruck at herself in the mirror. Overnight, she had developed an authentic patch of blemishes on her face. The largest was like a nucleus, with smaller ones spreading out in a circular patch. The acne was so noticeable she might as well have taken out a bulletin announcing it to the whole school. No one could miss it since she normally does not have acne. Her complexion is usually very clear.Once her classmates saw her face, she knew today was going to be a horrific day. She longed for the mundane days when nobody noticed her—when she could just exist without being the center of attention.

Why is it us women get a zit or acne flare up on important occasions, like weddings, job interviews or meeting new people?! Thanks for including the 3TC today.

I don’t know why Di, but it definitely happens. I have known people to miss out on something they really wanted to do because of acne. It is more painful when you are a teenager, but as an adult I still get acne occasionally.

I’ve always been pretty lucky with my skin, but I did have a beaut of a zit on my nose the day before my wedding in 1977!!

I used some special acne cream and witch hazel which at least took the inflammation down and it wasn’t too bad.
