Sept 24, 2019 Pampering

Looking in the mirror this morning while getting ready for my day, I thought about my routine. This week it is up at 4 am to help cover open slots at work. Up earlier so I can get in my daily regimen of skincare. I truly believe this helps me to stay feeling younger than I am. Regular trips to Rryon for my hair care, Vinnie for my nails and believe it or not, having a pizza when I can to keep that young girl inside me peeking out constantly. I think she is sitting on the older me, telling her to wait her turn. Sure these physical Pampers help a lot, but some things that money cant buy are big contributors to me working on imortality.

Hearing my grandkids laughing and seeing a toothless smile. Playing games with our grown children and watching all that competitiveness come out. Troy is the worst, Erin is a close second. Those unexpected calls or texts from the kids to just update me on their lives. Classmate/friend reunions that bring back fun memories.

Here lately it’s been my quiet cup of coffee and time. Time to just think of all for which I am grateful . Favorite memories to start my day with a smile. Time that problems, worries and the such cant penetrate.

My fountain of youth time. Shared with my magical bean elixir. That’s my secret. I hope you try it someday.

We all have a spare 15 minutes to indulge ourselves. It could add years to your inner young person. Give them the strength to keep sitting on the older one. Have a beautiful day full of new memory making time.

Time for a refill… Lorene
