You Do You

I am a mature woman who wants to look younger and live the best life possible. I had to take care of a mother who had schizophrenia and neglected herself. Even fighting with me when I asked her to improve herself and expect me to take care of her. When she started withering away due to her laziness and entitlement, she complained about that. She did it to herself despite her doctors and my urging her. I swore I would never do that to my children and husband. I have always respected and expected my strength. After a nervous breakdown I learned I had limits, so now I exercise those limitations.

I did get mentoring from Mathias4Makeup who tutors mature women in skin care and makeup. That is who taught me about lighting. He is very good. Highly recommend his tutoring. I do my makeup my own way, not from his teaching. I had a hard time making appointments due to running a business and opted for his gift box. I attended his webinars when I could find the time.

I don’t have to make sense to people. Many people haven’t even done half the work I put in and feel that they are entitled to an opinion of me I need to submit to. I won’t…. Those aren’t my people and we will never be a good fit.

I work out in the gym for at least a half hour. I read books that strengthen and grow my perspective. I am careful of who I respond to. Some seem kind but are manipulative parasites and it isn’t acceptable or at times wise to say so. I have learned how important the value of time is with all my health and life experiences. My goal is to invest in my life. It is hard to invest if my attention is focused on negative.

Keep growing. This blog is about me… now you do you…. What ever it is, I hope it is good.
