September 27, 2012 Menopause and Growing Older

Here I sit in my stylist chair looking at the older fluffy lady in the mirror that I hardly recognize; I wonder where I went and when. She looks sad and very unhappy.  Could that possibly be someone else, no it truly is me.  I don't think I realized I had changed so much. Really don't feel older, seems like yesterday I was a young wife and mother.

Life can be cruel and kind of fickle at times.  One of her acts of cruelty is the ability of our face into so creature from the dark lagoon.  How you say, take your hand mirror and lay it on the counter now bend over and look at yourself.  I discovered this while preforming the morning transformation of my face when I leaned over my hand mirror and accidently looked down.  I will never repeat never do this again.  Don't know about you, my face was sliding off faster than the speed of light.  Think about this the next time you bent over and cooing at a baby or kiss your kids/grandkids goodnight.
