Hello everyone, I had planned to do a post yesterday with Jo-Anne's thoughts but it didn't happen after going to the doctors I just didn't feel like it.
When I was having my wash this morning I thought why is it some mornings when I look in the mirror I thought I looked ok as in ageing well, although yesterday when I looked at myself I thought differently. Now I do not think I look older then my years generally speaking but there are times when I wonder if I am being a tad vain.
My grandmother always told me to make sure I moisturise my body not just my face but my neck and chest and upper arms and I still do each morning, although now I also have to moisturise my legs as they are drying out causing me to scratch which causes the skin to break and bleed, something I find very frustrating.
I like to dress nicely when I go out wearing if possible a nice dress or skirt some jewellery, including my train broach that I wear in honour of my Dad. I also like to wear some lip colour either lipstick or lip-gloss and perfume.
When I look in the mirror, I'm generally repulsed. Plus, I shower in the dark. Who needs to see that mess?
ReplyDeleteHonesty IS the best policy, lol!
DeleteA thought many men would have and as Chris said honesty is the best
DeleteI don't pay much attention to aging, really. I know the older I get the more things show up on me that did with my mom and grandmas. The saggy neck and skin turning crepey. I still don't have gray hair at 72 but that also runs in the family. I do know if I am tired I think I look even older, though.
ReplyDeleteI think there are many who don't think about aging it is just something that happens to us all, I am grey as is my younger sister well one of them, but I am fine with being grey
DeleteI'm over being vain- I know I've never been all that attractive. I just don't care for it when I occasionally 'see' my Dad in the mirror.
ReplyDeleteYeah I am sure it bugs Tim when he sees his father looking back at him in the mirror
DeleteIt's not always easy looking in the mirror for me. I do try to moisturize daily. You take care.
ReplyDeleteIt took me years to get into the habit of caring for my skin every day and not just when I thought of it
DeleteI need to moisturize more!
