….sometimes I catch a glimpse of myself passing by a
mirror…..I have to take a second look because I don’t recognize
myself……sometimes I even see my mother….not that that’s a bad thing…..but I
never thought I looked anything like my mom….don’t get me wrong my mom is a beautiful
woman…..actually when she was young….she was a hottie! ( I will have to dig out
some pics of my hot mom & post them)
……sometimes I see my kid-o ….when she
was young she looked a lot like me..but
as she has matured she looks more & more like her dad. But the fact is that you look at yourself every
day in the mirror…… but how many times do you really look at yourself…..I mean
really look….actually see yourself……
…as
I immerse myself in my FFF…….frickin…fabulous…fifties……I am not gonna surrender
to what so society….the beauty industry….. the media….think I should or shouldn’t
look like….or do to my body……a culture where wrinkles are treated like a poison
ivy….saggy boobies & belly are like leprosy…..nope…no way…..all you FFF
please join me in starting a new movement……embrace who you are today…..in your
50’s……sexy wrinkled saggy women of worth……..it’s time to reclaim our sexiness!
…..when
I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror…I see wrinkles around my mouth from laughing……there
is nothing better than laughing to cure what ails ya….life is nothing if not
funny………..I see wrinkles in the corners of my eyes from always smiling….smiling
even through the pain……there is always something to smile about……I see that
little girl inside of me…..the one with the freckles……I see that lanky
teenager & that 20 something who
thought she had the world by the tail……..I see that 30 yr old women whose life
fell apart & who rebuilt her life for the better……….I see that 40yr old who
watched her baby go off to school……I see the 50yr old who is preparing to be an
empty nester……..
…..
as I surround myself in my FFF…….frickin…fabulous…fifties……and all the sex
appeal that entails…..at least in my own head…….my body on the other hand is
taking this 50s thing in a whole different direction…..it’s like my body has decided
the play a joke on me…seems like my jowls are sagging……my neck is cracking……my
hair this thinning……my middle is now a flabby jelly belly……can’t even see my
who below my belly…..my boobies…I need more than an 18 hour bra to keep those
girls upright…lol….
…..as
I embrace my new reality…50’s……when plucking those dark chin hairs……or trying
to cover up yet another age spot……I try not to dwell on my younger self who
took my youthful looks for granted….it’s a whole new FFF world…..it’s a time
when we can finally be who we are…..and only we at FFF can decide what works
for us…….enjoy your FFF!
