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.
Dearest Jo-Anne,
Yes, our skin is becoming very dry… Ought to use body lotion for my legs on a daily base, as well as arms and chest but in winter it is not always done.
Lip–gloss is a daily must and when going to see a doctor or to Church I use perfume as well.
Can’t wear my rings during cold days as I would lose them, they’re still far too wide as I’ve not yet gained back my weight.
Hugs,
Mariette
It took me many years to get into the habit of moisturising my body for a few decades it would be on and off thing but now it is a daily habit first thing of a morning.
Great Discipline!
